  • The Role of Ingredients and Processing Conditions on Marinade
    THE ROLE OF INGREDIENTS AND PROCESSING CONDITIONS ON MARINADE PENETRATION, RETENTION AND COLOR DEFECTS IN COOKED MARINATED CHICKEN BREAST MEAT by EDWIN YPARRAGUIRRE PALANG (Under the Direction of Romeo T. Toledo) ABSTRACT Marination by vacuum tumbling is commonly practiced in the meat industry; however, the optimal temperature of the process to maximize marinade absorption and retention is yet to be defined. Furthermore, the role of marinade functional ingredients and pH of the marinade in alleviating problems with pink color in cooked meat and water retention during cooking is yet to be elucidated. For denaturation model study, myoglobin pigments from chicken gizzards were extracted. Observed results from the model study were validated in whole muscle and comminuted chicken meat. In addition, temperature of vacuum tumbling operation was optimized with respect to marinade pick-up, cook yield and expressible moisture. Also, trivalent Eu+3 was used to trace the penetration of marinade in chicken breast meat. Results showed that increasing concentration of salt and pH in marinade increased the persistence of the pink color in cooked meat. Furthermore, degree of denaturation of myoglobin pigments was not a determining factor for cooked meat color under the condition of higher ORP values in meat products. On the other hand, temperature of marination was found to be a significant factor in marinade penetration and retention in a vacuum tumbling process. Higher marination temperature promoted deeper penetration of marinade in the meat as traced by trivalent Eu+3. Consequently, marinade pick-up was found at higher temperature. However, cook yield was found highest when marination process was initially at a higher temperature followed by lowering to near refrigeration temperature.

  • Frozen Onion Rings
    United States Department of Agriculture United States Standards Agricultural Marketing for Grades of Service Fruit and Frozen Breaded Vegetable Division Onion Rings Processed Products Branch Effective date October 17, 1959 This is the first issue of the United States Standards for Grades of Frozen Breaded Onion Rings. This issue was published in the FEDERAL REGISTER of September 16, 1959 (24 FR 7435) to become effective October 17, 1959. Voluntary U.S. grade standards are issued under the authority of the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946, which provides for the development of official U.S. grades to designate different levels of quality. These grade standards are available for use by producers, suppliers, buyers, and consumers. As in the case of other standards for grades of processed fruits and vegetables, these standards are designed to facilitate orderly marketing by providing a convenient basis for buying and selling, for establishing quality control programs, and for determining loan values. The standards also serve as a basis for the inspection and grading of commodities by the Federal inspection service, the only activity authorized to approve the designation of U.S. grades as referenced in the standards, as provided under the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946. This service, available as on-line (in-plant) or lot inspection and grading of all processed fruit and vegetable products, is offered to interested parties, upon application, on a fee-for-service basis. The verification of some specific recommendations, requirements, or tolerances contained in the standards can be accomplished only by the use of on-line inspection procedures. In all instances, a grade can be assigned based on final product factors or characteristics.
