After frozen storage, the breaking strength and breaking strain of Itatsuki-kamaboko, which is a two-stepÐheated surimi gel without starch, decreased with frozen storage, while for the other products, which are direct-heated gels containing starch, the breaking strength and breaking strain increased. Drip loss increased after frozen storage, and the thawing drip was higher with Itatsuki-kamaboko than with other products. These changes were notable in samples subjected to slow freezing than subjected to quick freezing. Moreover, the results of physical properties and drip loss corresponded to the change in sensory characteristics. Thus, the quality change in frozen surimi-based products might be correlated to not only the freezing conditions but also the heating methods and ingredients used. Keywords: Surimi-based product, Frozen storage, Freezing speed, Heating method, Physical property, Drip loss, Sensory evaluation 1. Introduction 2. Materials and Methods Low-temperature preservation (freezing in 2.1 Materials particular) is a common method used for many kinds Five types of typical commercial surimi-based of food, such as meat, fish, and seafood, to prevent products, Itatsuki-kamaboko (steamed kamaboko), physiological and chemical changes. Freezing is also Chikuwa (grilled kamaboko), Satsuma-age (fried important for commercial surimi-based products, kamaboko), Datemaki (grilled kamaboko with egg especially during periods of high demand, such as at yolk), and Hanpen (boiled kamaboko) were obtained the start of the new year in Japan, despite the belief from a supermarket (Tokyo, Japan). Samples and that gelled food like surimi-based products is their ingredients are listed in Table 1. Among them, susceptible to damage by freezing.

Thus, there is a need to 2.3 Determination of physical properties clarify the quality changes in surimi-based products The physical properties of samples were evaluated during freezing and frozen storage and provide by the puncture test using a rheometer (RE2-3305B; manufacturers with a scientific basis for optimal Yamaden Co., Tokyo, Japan). The plunger was processing conditions. In this study, as the first step spherical, with a diameter of 5 mm and a depression of the investigation to clarify the factors affecting speed of 1 mm/s. Samples were kept at 0¡C and the quality deterioration of frozen surimi-based measured for breaking strength (g) and breaking products, we investigated the quality changes in five deformation (mm). Each measurement was repeated different types of commercial surimi-based products four times. during frozen storage, comparing the changes in physical properties, drip loss, and sensory characteristics.

  • Downloadable Sushi Guide
    Courtesy of www.alighaemi.com THE SUSHI GUIDE – A LIST OF TYPES OF SUSHI 寿司 At over 200 terms I have attempted to compile as comprehensive a list of sushi fish and a guide to sushi terms and sushi terminology as possible. Sushi and its related fish can become confusing and many diners and restaurants, and lesser chefs, casually mistake and confuse the terms and the fish. The guide goes beyond sushi staples like shrimp, salmon and tuna. Many of the items may not be available locally or only have Japanese te rms. Where possible I have tried to indicate seasonality and availability to the alphabetical list of sushi terms and added my own subjective experience tasting the item. Incidentally, in Japan sushi has its own unit of measurement called Kan カン, which acted as a unit of measurement in the Edo Period equal to 3.75 Kg for fish or the equivalent to either 1 or 2 nigirizushi. Some believe it is 1 sushi, while others believe it is for 2 given how they typically come in a set comprised of pairs. Where possible purchase or order male fish. Female fish give part of their nutrients, and associated taste, to their eggs or roe. Additionally, it has been said that if one can pick a specific cut or part of a fish the rear side nearer to the tail is likely better. It has been moving more and is hence less rough. I recommend treating sushi with respect and focusing on quality as opposed to surrendering to the temptation of low-grade or cheap fish at the hands of uninformed restaurant owners and their chefs.

The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date vTun^ /b. /Qtytf^B) -; Abstract The thesis hypothesis of this research was that farmed chinook salmon could be made into better quality functional kamaboko when made from solubilized frozen surimi than when made from conventional frozen surimi. An 84 day storage study compared kamaboko gel quality made from solubilized and traditional surimi. Fresh farmed chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) was used to make both solubilized surimi and surimi (control). Solubilized treatments contained varying concentrations of calcium chloride, sodium chloride and water. The Random Centroid Optimization (RCO) program randomly generated concentration values of additives. All surimi treatments (solubilized and control) contained 8.3% cryoprotectants.
