Abstract:

To explore textural characteristics of ham sausage, the effect of compression ratio within the range of 30% to 80% on textural characteristics of ham sausage was investigated. Results indicated that fracturability property provided an important reference to compression ratio. Compression ratios tended to be consistent when an appropriate strength of gelatin system for ham sausage preparation was reached.

Key words: ham sausage, texture, compression ratio
