Quality characteristics of chia seed-added dry sausage for replacement of phosphate

Phosphate is a widely used food additive for manufacturing processed meat product due to its water holding capacityby increasing the pH of meat batter. However, excessive phosphate consumption has been associated with the occurrenceof some diseases including metabolic bone disease and chronic kidney disease. Therefore, this study evaluatedthe quality properties of chia seed (CS) as a replacement for phosphate in dry sausage. CS [1%–3% (w/w)] was addedto produce dry sausage as a phosphate replacer. Quality characteristics including pH, emulsion stability and lipid oxidationwere significantly improved in CS-added dry sausage, compared with phosphate free-dry sausage (p<0.05). The lowerlightness, redness and yellowness of CS significantly reduced color parameters of dry sausages (p<0.05). Particularly,addition of 3% CS has the highest apparent viscosity and the lowest shear force among the groups (p<0.05). Collectively,our data suggest that CS can replace phosphate in dry sausage without compromising quality characteristics.
