Abstract: | The effect of microbial transglutaminase/sodium caseinate (MTG/C) systems on meat batter characteristics (water binding and textural properties of raw and cooked products) was studied in the presence of NaCl (1.5 g/100 g) and sodium tripolyphosphate (0.5 g/100 g), and storage time (96 h at 3 °C) for three meat species (pork, chicken, lamb). Samples prepared from pork and lamb with only MTG/C (no salts) had the highest cooking loss (CL) values, about 23 and 29 g/100 g, respectively; for chicken, the CL was less than 13 g/100 g. Hardness (Hd) and chewiness (Cw) generally tended to be higher in cooked samples containing MTG/C than in samples containing only salts. Products combining salts and MTG/C had higher (P<0.05) Hd and Cw. The efficiency of the MTG/C system as a texture conditioner of cooked products varied with the meat source. |
