Abstract

In this study, we investigated the quality characteristics of noodles supplemented with lyophilized leg-meat powder from the red snow crab, Chionoecetes japonicus (CP). The noodles were prepared by adding 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10% of CP on a wheat-flour basis. The ash, crude protein and crude lipid contents of noodles increased with increasing CP content. The cooked weight, volume and water absorption values of noodles decreased, whereas the turbidity increased, with increasing CP content. The L values of the noodles decreased with increasing CP content, whereas the a and b color values increased. The hardness, gumminess and chewiness values increased with increasing CP content increased, while springiness and cohesiveness showed no significant differences among the groups. In the sensory evaluation, cooked noodles with 4-6% CP had greater overall acceptability than the noodles with other CP levels.
