This study investigated the effect of different reheating treatments on gel properties and flavor changes of surimi products. As the reheating temperature increased from 90 °C to 121 °C, the heat-induced proteolysis produced more abundant umami and sweet amino acids, which took part in the conversion of IMP to AMP, thus enhancing the taste profiles. Reheating increased the exposure of active -NH terminals in proteins, which boosted Maillard and Strecker reactions with carbonyl compounds originated from fatty acid oxidation, thus not only reducing the aldehydes and esters contents but also lowering the whiteness of surimi products. Reheating at 90 °C prohibited the production of warmed-over flavor (WOF) and well-preserved the textural characteristics, but high temperatures ≥100 °C were prone to generate furan as the major WOF substance and to destroy gel structures. Collectively, this study provides new insights on understanding the role of reheating on sensory properties of surimi products.

Washing improves the overall quality of surimi production. However, the washing process significantly increases wastewater discharge from factories, thus raising environmental concerns and highlighting the need for more sustainable methods of surimi production. This study aimed to investigate the possibility of improving the quality of unwashed freshwater surimi by mechanical pre-dehydration and to explore the changes in gelling properties and physicochemical characteristics during frozen storage.

Sliver carp is a nutritious and abundant species in China, but its low market value stems from its thin meat, small bones and strong odor. Processing it into surimi enhances its economic value, though surimi typically has low gel strength and is prone to deterioration. Recently, three-dimensional (3D) printing has gained attention as an innovative additive manufacturing technique for personalization and process simplification requiring high-performance materials.

The optimum processing conditions for green laver chips were determined using response surface methodology (RSM) to improve taste and reduce off-flavors by applying reaction flavor and air-frying techniques. The optimum composition (/) for the chips included 20% green laver, 20% hairtail surimi, and 60% flour. Additional ingredients included distilled water (90 mL) with GDL (3 g), NaHCO₃ (2 g), salt (1 g), sugar (12 g), roasted soybean powder (1.

Zein-fucoidan nanoparticles (ZFNPs) as an excellent colloidal delivery system for bioactive compounds, such as curcumin (CUR), show a great application potential in the food industry. Herein, various amount of ZFNPs, ZFNPs loaded with CUR (CZFNPs) and free CUR were added into golden threadfin bream (Nemipterus virgatus) surimi to explore their impacts on the gel properties. Dynamic rheological tests showed that storage modulus (G') and loss modulus (G") of surimi gels with the additive amount of ZFNPs and CZFNPs under 0.
