Soluble gas stabilization (SGS) technology is a novel way to increase the effectiveness of modified atmosphere (MA) packaging. However, SGS can be time-consuming and difficult to include in an existing process. This can be overcome by including CO in an existing processing step, such as the product's cooling step. A full factorial design was set up with SGS times (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 h) and temperatures of fish cakes (chilled (0 °C) or during chilling (starting at 85 °C)) as factors. MA-packaged fish cakes were included as a control. The response was headspace gas composition at equilibrium. Headspace gas composition at equilibrium showed significantly ( < 0.05) less dissolved CO in hot fish cakes after 0.5 h than in cold cakes. Still, no significant differences were found between hot and cold at 1.0 and 2.0 h. Also, all SGS samples, regardless of time and temperature, had a higher content of CO compared to modified atmosphere packaging (MAP).

Article Synopsis
  • Hydrocolloids can improve the texture of plant-based seafood analogues, specifically in creating a surimi-like texture in fish cakes made from rice and pea protein.
  • Research revealed that methylcellulose increased oil-holding capacity, while curdlan gum decreased it; however, the overall water holding capacity remained stable.
  • Consumer tests showed that a specific blend of methylcellulose, curdlan gum, and gellan gum in fish cakes closely resembled the texture of commercial surimi-tofu products, highlighting the potential for innovative plant-based seafood alternatives.

Flavor characteristics of garlic fish cakes using electronic nose and tongue analyses.

Sci Rep

March 2024

Department of Food Science and Nutrition, Daejin University, Pocheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, 11159, Republic of Korea.

This study investigated the utility of garlic powder as a functional ingredient. The aim was to develop fish cakes with improved functionality and sensory preference based on the antioxidant activity and quality characteristics. Increasing amounts of garlic powder in the prepared fish cakes were associated with increasing total polyphenol and flavonoid contents, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazolin-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, and reducing power.

Article Synopsis
  • This study compared the frying performance of palm oil (PO) and high oleic sunflower oil (HOSO) when frying fish cakes, focusing on their quality changes.
  • Results indicated that PO deepened in color faster than HOSO and that after 18 hours of frying, the total polar compound levels were similar for both oils, with HOSO showing lower oxidation levels after 24 hours.
  • HOSO maintained a high oleic acid content during frying and demonstrated better stability and nutritional value, making it a preferred choice for frying aquatic products.
