Abstract:

In this work, chicken breast meat and chicken skin were used as raw materials to produce emulsion-type chicken sausages with the additions of some subsidiary materials. Five addition sequences for raw and subsidiary materials were designed for emulsion-type chicken sausage production and the products obtained were evaluated for their water-holding capacity, textural characteristics (analyzed by sensory evaluation and instrumental measurements, namely TPA compression and W-B shearing) and microstructural properties. Chicken sausages produced through the sequential steps of lean protein extraction, fat emulsification, chopping and mixing of seasonings, starch and ice water mixing has the best water-holding capacity, textural and microstructural characteristics. Multiple comparisons on TPA and W-B tests also exhibited a significant difference among chicken sausages produced based on different sequential additions of raw and subsidiary materials.

Key words: emulsion-type sausages, water-holding capacity, sensory evaluation, SEM, TPA, W-B
