The effects of tomato on the phsycochemical and sensory properties of meat patties during frozen storage were studied. Meat patties were produced with four different formulation including 0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% chopped raw tomato. Meat patties made with the addition of tomato had higher (p<0.05) pH, L* and a* value than those of control sample. TBARS of all treatments were lower (p<0.05) when compared with those for control. In sensory evaluation, treatment groups resulted in slightly higher (p>0.05) score in overall acceptability. In the manufacture of functional meat patties containing tomato, further studied are needs on addition type and ratio of tomato materials during frozen storage than those of products without tomato.
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.
