Abstract

Some quality characteristics of frankfurters manufactured in three different fat levels (20%, 10% and 5%) and added citrus fibre (CF) and soy protein concentrate (SPC) were investigated. While moisture content of frankfurters increased with decreasing fat levels, protein contents increased. Lower fat levels resulted in lower water-holding capacity (WHC), cooking losses and penetrometer values. Lower L* values and higher a* values were obtained in low fat frankfurters. SPC significantly increased the cooking losses in the sausages with 5% and 20% fat, but decreased in the sausages with 10% fat. The lower cooking loss values were obtained in sausages added CF for all fat levels. Addition of fat replacers decreased the L values but did not affect the a and b values. Addition of fat replacers increased hardness in case of low fat levels. The softer product was obtained with high-fat formulation than low-fat formulation. Lower taste scores were observed with addition of fat replacers.
