J. Sahoo et Js. Berwal, UTILIZATION OF TURKEY FAT AND SKIN FOR PRODUCTION OF SAUSAGES, Journal of Food Science and Technology, 30(3), 1993, pp. 224-225
The effect of incorporation of 15, 20 and 25% turkey fat and skin (TFS
) on physico-chemical properties, proximate composition and organolept
ic quality of cooked turkey sausages was evaluated. TFS levels had no
effect on pH, though emulsifying capacity (EC), emulsion stability (ES
) and cooking loss decreased and extract release volume (ERV) increase
d with increasing level of incorporation. Organoleptic scores were mar
ginally (p less-than-or-equal-to 0.05) affected by TFS levels. However
, inclusion of 25% TFS scored lowest in general.
