Title

Influence of wheat dietary fiber on the quality of meat dishes

Abstract

In the research the effect of wheat dietary fiber Vitacel on sensory quality of dishes from pork meat (cooked meat balls and fried meat balls) was evaluated. The functional properties, that is water holding capacity, oil absorption and cation exchange capacity, were also determined. It was shown, Vitacel had high water holding capacity and oil absorption, but low cation exchange capacity. Vitacel had different influence on sensory quality of cooked meat balls and fried meat balls. Fried meat balls with 2% addition of Vitacel were better than cooked meat balls. However higher Vitacel addition (4%) decreased the sensory quality of cooked meat balls as well as fried meat balls.
