“…The closer texture values (hardness, cohesiveness, and chewiness) of FCP to the control than CCP formulation observed at time 0 day, could be attributed to the higher content of CHA and lignin present in the FCP ingredient. It has been reported that IDF, such as lignin, improves the texture due to their water and fat‐binding properties, which results in harder meat products (Biswas et al., ; Mehta et al., ; Pintado et al., ; Ruiz‐Capillas et al., ; Todd, Cunningham, Claus, & Schwenke, ; Viuda‐Martos, Ruiz‐Navajas, Fernández‐López, & Pérez‐Álvarez, ). Likewise, as earlier discussed, phenolic compounds, such as CHA, prevent oxidative degradation of muscle proteins, which can also explain the higher hardness value observed in FCP formulation as compared with CCP formulation (Ganhão, Morcuende, & Estévez, ).…”
