In this study, the production of emulsion‐type sausage by replacement of 20% to 40% KCl plus 1% or 2% yeast extract instead of NaCl was studied. The physical, chemical, microbiological, and sensory properties of the samples were analyzed up to 28 days of storage. The sample sausages were approved by the panelists. The physical, chemical, and microbiological properties of emulsion‐type sausages were not considerably influenced by these changes. The 40% replaced salt by KCl showed a similar property rather than the regular sausages. The aroma and taste of the sausages improved by using yeast extract. In addition, the adverse flavors resulted from adding KCl were excluded by adding the yeast extract. As a result, production of healthy emulsion‐type sausages (having 40% lower NaCl) with acceptable sensory qualities was introduced.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
