Quality Characteristics of Tteokgalbi with Black Rice Bran and Organic Acid to Substitute Synthetic Caramel Colorant

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the quality characteristics of Tteokgalbi with 1% (w/w) black rice bran only (T1), or with black rice bran and one of the following four types of organic acid: ascorbic acid (T2), citric acid (T3), tartaric acid (T4), or maleic acid (T5) as a substitute for caramel colorant. Tteokgalbi with only black rice bran showed the highest (p<0.05) values of moisture content and water holding capacity (WHC), while there were no significant differences in protein content, fat content, ash content, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) values in treatments and controls (p>0.05). All the treated samples with any one of the four organic acids showed lower pH than controls (p<0.05). The lightness and redness of Tteokgalbi treated with any one of the four organic acids and black rice bran were higher than those of T1. The volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) values of T4 and T5 were higher than those of the other treatments (p<0.05). With regards to sensory characteristics, T1 and T2 showed overall acceptability similar to that of the controls (p>0.05). The results reported in this study show that Tteokgalbi with black rice bran and any one of the four organic acids listed above not only improved quality characteristics in cooking loss, WHC, lipid oxidation but also could successfully replace the synthetic caramel colorant. Overall, the most satisfactory results were obtained by adding black rice bran and ascorbic acid.

Quality of Sliced Cured Pork Loin with Spinach: Effect of Incubation Period with Starter Culture

“…Cured meat products are primarily manufactured by curing meat with salts, plant or plant extracts, and nitrites [1,2]. e color of cured meat and meat products is the most important factor that determines the consumer's choice for purchasing meat products [3]. Sodium nitrite, an additive widely used for curing meat products, mainly in Europe, is implicated in several functions, including color formation [4].…”

“…The CR was expressed as °C/min. After cooking, the core samples were collected parallel to the muscle fiber shape by using a 1.27 cm diameter handed coring device, and the shear force was measured using a TA-XT2 i (Stable Micro System Ltd., Surrey, UK) equipped with a triangle angular slot cutting edge under a crosshead speed of 1.5 mm/s ( Kim et al, 2017 ).…”

Kimchi extracts as inhibitors of colour deterioration and lipid oxidation in raw ground pork meat during refrigerated storage

“…Because many plant materials have antioxidant and antibacterial properties, it is a promising strategy to use natural preservatives to extend the shelf‐life of meat . There is considerable interest in using natural ingredients as antioxidants and antimicrobial compounds to preserve food and extend the shelf life of food, as well as to increase the stability of oils and fats and to control plant and human diseases of microbial origin …”

“…1 There is considerable interest in using natural ingredients as antioxidants and antimicrobial compounds to preserve food and extend the shelf life of food, as well as to increase the stability of oils and fats and to control plant and human diseases of microbial origin. 2 Lipid oxidation, microbial growth, and colour stability are important factors determining shelf-life, and consumers prefer fresh meat. 3 Sensory and physico-chemical properties are also very important for meat products.…”
