Abstract

SummaryJumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas), an abundant species in the Gulf of California, can have a great potential for production of gelled‐emulsified type products. Thus, formulation, processing and physicochemical characteristics of frankfurter‐type product from jumbo squid mantle muscle (JSF) was achieved. JSF were vacuum‐packed and stored at 2–4 °C. Samples were analysed for physicochemical (colour, texture, TBARS, peroxide value, folding test, pH, and water content and holding capacity) and microbial changes at regular intervals during storage for up to 27 days. The sensory quality of the product was also evaluated. Shear force, cohesiveness and colour (hue angle and total colour difference) were the most affected (P < 0.05) parameters at day 27, changes most probably because of microbial growth as total aerobic counts increased to >2.7 × 105 CFU g−1 (day 21). Product showed acceptability. Results suggest a stable gelled‐emulsified type product can be developed from jumbo squid mantle muscle opening a range of possibilities for product development.
