Abstract

This research deals with the application of a global strategy designed to produce a nitrite-free Asian hot dog. Different ingredients such as annatto, cochineal, orange dietary fibre, vitamins E and C, lactate and celery were combined in order to study the appearance (colour), lipid oxidation stability and microbial stability of the nitrite-free formulations. The control sample contained much more (P < 0.05) residual nitrite (88.7 mg/kg) than the samples without added nitrite (23-24 mg/kg). Generally, no formulation-dependent variations were observed in fat and water binding properties. Control sample had the highest L* and a* values, while the product with annatto (RA) had the lowest a* values. Lipid oxidation levels were similar irrespective of formulation. The hot dog reformulated with cochineal (RC) scored higher for overall acceptability than RA, mainly due to its colour.
