Abstract:Esan fermented fish sausage (EFFS) has an unappealing off-white color. The incorporation of an appropriate amount of red yeast rice (RYR) and the selection of an optimal fermentation period may yield visually appealing, high-quality sausages. This study is aimed at investigating the effects of different RYR levels (0, 0.35, and 0.7%) and fermentation periods (0, 2, 4, and 6 days) on the quality parameters of EFFS. The following parameters were examined for raw EFFS: CIE color values (L∗, a∗, and b∗), microbial… Show more
