Descrizione
Riassunto:Nopal cladodes (Opuntia spp) contain dietary fiber, a key ingredient in functional foods formulation, whose commercial presentation in dehydrated powder, make it suitable for food processing. In this study, physicochemical and textural changes in meat batters of Vienna sausages added with 0 % (TNOP0), 2 % (TNOP2), 4 % (TNOP4) y 6 % (TNOP6) of dehydrated nopal powder were analyzed. After 24 h of processing cooking losses were calculated; at 7 day nutritional composition (moisture, protein, ethereal extract, ashes, and crude fiber), water holding capacity, color, instrumental texture profile analysis and sensory analysis were tested. At higher incorporation of dehydrated nopal powder nutritional profile of sausages improves by reducing fat percentage and increasing crude fiber (p < 0.05); there is a yellow and darkness trend at higher incorporation of nopal (p < 0.05); texture of batters with 6 %   of nopal is modified negatively; global acceptance of sausages decreases at increasing content of fiber, although 2 % treatment shows comparable acceptance with control treatment.
