The inclusion of an ingredient made from red grape pomace (RGP) var. Tempranillo was evaluated for the preservation of a traditional dry-cured sausages (salchichón). The pomace was valorized through thermal blanching (103 °C for 1 min) and hydrostatic high-pressure treatment (600 MPa/5 min) before the addition to salchichón.

The aim of this study was to investigate whether it can also delay lipid oxidation in dry-cured sausages, and to compare its effect when added at 0.5 and 3% with those of synthetic additives (sodium nitrite and ascorbic acid) and no additives (Control) in lipid and protein oxidation, the instrumental color, the sensory characteristics, and the volatile compounds.

The valorized pomace (VP) ingredient was added at different proportions to pork burgers (0.5%, 1%, and 3% /) to improve their preservation, and the effect was compared to those produced by sulfites and with a control (without sulfites or VP).

The final use of this product would be as an ingredient for food products preservation. Microbiological, enzyme and physico-chemical parameters were evaluated after processing and during storage.

However, the subsequent 90-day storage softened the initial effect of HPP on microorganisms and allowed a significant effect of HPP to develop on color and oxidation.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate for the first time the effect of High Processing Pressure (HPP) and storage temperature on the microbial counts, instrumental color, oxidation and sensory characteristics of sliced Iberian chorizo with high and pH. First, 600 MPa was applied for 480 s to sliced chorizo with : 0.

This work aims to evaluate the effect of hydrostatic high pressure (HHP) and storage temperature on sliced vacuum-packaged top-quality Iberian "". Two types of "" (S1 and S2, manufactured at different companies) were processed at 600 MPa for 8 min and stored at 4 and 20 °C for 180 days.
