Effects of cooking method and final core-temperature on cooking loss, lipid oxidation, nucleotide-related compounds and aroma volatiles of Hanwoo brisket

Abstract

ObjectiveThis study observed the effects of cooking method and final core temperature on cooking loss, lipid oxidation, aroma volatiles, nucleotide-related compounds and aroma volatiles of Hanwoo brisket (deep pectoralis).MethodsDeep pectoralis muscles (8.65% of crude fat) were obtained from three Hanwoo steer carcasses with 1+ quality grade. Samples were either oven-roasted at 180°C (dry heat) or cooked in boiling water (moist heat) to final core temperature of 70°C (medium) or 77°C (well-done).ResultsBoiling method reduced more fat but retained more moisture than did the oven roasting method (p<0.001), thus no significant differences were found on cooking loss. However, samples lost more weight as final core temperature increased (p<0.01). Further, total saturated fatty acid increased (p = 0.02) while total monounsaturated fatty acid decreased (p = 0.03) as final core temperature increased. Regardless the method used for cooking, malondialdehyde (p<0.01) and free iron contents (p<0.001) were observed higher in samples cooked to 77°C. Oven roasting retained more inosinic acid, inosine and hypoxanthine in samples than did the boiling method (p<0.001), of which the concentration decreased as final core temperature increased except for hypoxanthine. Samples cooked to 77°C using oven roasting method released more intense aroma than did the others and the aroma pattern was discriminated based on the intensity. Most of aldehydes and pyrazines were more abundant in oven-roasted samples than in boiled samples. Among identified volatiles, hexanal had the highest area unit in both boiled and oven-roasted samples, of which the abundance increased as the final core temperature increased.ConclusionThe boiling method extracted inosinic acid and rendered fat from beef brisket, whereas oven roasting intensified aroma derived from aldehydes and pyrazines and prevented the extreme loss of inosinic acid.

The alternative approach of low temperature-long time cooking on bovine semitendinosus meat quality

“…Though traditionally cooked sample (CON75) was cooked at high temperature of 75°C and with the presence of oxygen, the samples in the traditional cooking method had better water retention than the sous vide samples, except for SV45. Cooking time had a significant effect on these parameters [21,33]. Thus, samples cooked for less time (traditional cooking method) showed less water loss than samples cooked for 6 h (SV45–65).…”

Quality Analysis of Meats Using Ftir Spectroscopy, Colour Spectrophotometer, Texture Analyser and Physical Image Analysis

“…The meat samples were cooked when the oven temperature reached 200 ºC for 15 minutes and 9 minutes respectively. All cooked meat samples were processed until the internal core temperature of beef and chicken reached 77 ºC (well-done) and 70 ºC respectively using a digital thermometer (Oz et al, 2016;Utama et al, 2018). The meat samples were packed and stored in a sealed vacuum-packed and moisture impermeable polyethylene plastics and stored at -4 ºC in a freezer for a five-day period.…”

Comparative effect of different cooking methods on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of high pressure processed marinated pork chops

“…The higher cook loss in samples that were cooked using the griddle may be due to the longer cooking time as this cooking method is by contact between the hot surface and the MPC and the main method of heat transfer is via conduction. It was reported that different cooking methods have significant effects on the physicochemical changes due to the cook loss of meat products that affect the cooking times, temperatures and methods of heat transfer(Ishiwatari et al 2013;Bejerholm & Aaslyng, 2004).Alfaia, Alves, Lopes, Fernandes, Costa et al (2010) andUtama, Baek, Jeong, Yoon, Joo et al (2018) reported increased cook loss when beef was oven roasted rather than boiled due to prolonged heat exposure duration.…”
