Development of semi-finished meat products using dairy products and spinach Development of meat products with the use of dairy products and spinach

Abstract

Influence of dairy products and spinach on the organoleptic and physicochemical parameters in the technology of meat semi-finished products has been investigated. The object of the study was to develop minced meat mince systems. To enrich the dry whey it was treated in an electro-discharge chamber with a conductive layer of magnesium and manganese granules. It has been found that such treatment increases the content of Magnesium and Manganese in whey depending on the duration of the treatment. The enriched milk whey serum was introduced in various ways: in dry form, in water dissolved and in broth. It has been proved that the best from the all studied samples of meat semi-finished products was sample with the dry addition. Suluguni cheese was brought to mince before grinding it and spinach after washing, removal of excess moisture, after washing, in a crushed state. Delicate consistency and the introduction of suluguni cheese and spinach give the product a special, spicy taste and aroma of the finished product of interest to the tasters. According to the results of physicochemical studies, all the test specimens had a pH that was within the normal range and characteristic of meat raw materials. A slight deviation from the norm was in samples №1 and №4. Moisture content in these minced meat samples varied within 55… 61%, depending on the type and quantity of raw meat. In the sample at №4, the moisture content was lowest. The wettability of all samples depends on the consistency of the product. It is established that the use of the proposed recipe components in the production of meat semi-finished products does not increase the duration of production organization, no additional equipment is needed. The use of dried whey with magnesium and manganese enriched with suluguni cheese and spinach in semi-finished meat technology contributes to its enrichment with valuable mineral elements.
