Abstract
ABSTRACTThe effects of fat (7.0, 14.0 and 20.0%), starch (0, 5 and 10%) and egg white (0, 1.5 and 3%) on the microstructure and texture of bologna sausages were examined. As levels of fat and starch increased, the microstructure exhibited increasing numbers of holes (P<0.05), smaller in size (P<0.05) and similar (P>0.05) in shape. No clear relationship was found between addition of egg white and these morphological variations. Low‐fat sausage (7.0%) was less hard and chewy (P<0.05) than high‐fat (20.0%) sausage; likewise, a direct relationship was found between starch and egg white content and hardness and chewiness of the bologna.
