Abstract
ABSTRACTBeef muscles were reduced in size and blended with one of four mixtures (1) 1% food grade NaCl + 0.25% sodium tripolyphosphate (STP) (1F), (2) 1% laboratory grade NaCl + 0.25% STP (1L), (3) 2% food grade NaCl + 0.25% STP (2F) or (4) 2% laboratory grade NaCl + 0.25% STP (2L). The samples were converted to restructured beef steaks and evaluated at 0, 7, 14, and 56 days. Color degradation of 2F and 2L steaks was greater (P<0.05) than for 1F and 1L samples. Storage time and salt concentration were more critical than grade of salt in the reduction of color and flavor degradation.
