CONDITIONS FOR PROCESSING OF MEATY TEXTURED FISH PROTEIN CONCENTRATE FROM ALASKA POLLACK AND MACKEREL

명태 및 고등어의 축육과 유사한 어육조직단백질 농축물의 가공조건

For the effective utilization of the coastal fish resources in Korea, an investigation on the optimum processing conditions and the quality of a textured fish protein concentrate similar to the texture of animal meat has been carried out with the fish meat of Alaska pollack and mackerel. A noodle shaped product was prepared with the fish meat paste after the adjustment of pH and salt content. The product was soaked in $96\%$ ethyl alcohol to produce textured fish protein concentrate and then dried. The processing conditions were estimated with the rehydration capacity of the textured fish protein concentrate(FFC). The quality of the final product was evaluated with chemical composition, sensory test and texture measurement. The optimum pH and salt content of the fish meat for the processing of meaty textured FPC were 7.5 and $1.0\%$ respectively. The most effective soaking conditions were as follows:soaking time, 40 min. ; temperature of alcohol, 5 to $20^{\circ}C$;amount of alcohol, 4 times the weight of tile fish meat paste, number of soaking in alcohol, 4 times. The alcohol remaining in meaty textured FPC could be removed effectively by forced air drying. The yield and the contents of protein and lipid in the meaty textured FPC from Alaska pollack were $19.9\%\;84.3\%\;and\;0.5\%$ and those from mackerel were $29.8\%,\;78.1\%\;and\;3.6\%$ respectively. The content of essential amino acid in the meaty textured FPC from Alaska pollack and mackerel was not inferior to that of beef, textured soybean protein and FAO pattern. Beef meat can be substituted with the meaty textured FPC up to $50\%$ in processing meat balls withoutanysignificantlossinthetaste, ordor and texture.

우리나라 연안수산자원의 효율적인 이용방법을 개발할 목적으로 축육과 유사한 가공적성을 가지는 새로운 형태의 어육단백질농축물을 가공하기 위한 기초자료를 얻고자 백색육어인 명태와 적색육어인 고등어를 원료로 하여 최적가공조건 및 제품의 품질에 관하여 실험하였다. 명태 및 고등어로써 어육단백질농축물을 제조할 때의 최적가공조건은 다음과 같았다. 원료어육의 pH는 7.5, 고기풀제조시의 식염첨가량은 원료어육 중량에 대하여 $1.0\%$, 압출기로 압출한 고기풀의 에틸알코올중 침지시간은 40분, 침지시의 에틸알코올 량은 어육량에 4배, 그때의 에틸알코올 온도는 낮은 온도가 적당하였으며, 에틸알코올중의 침지회수는 4회가 적당하였고, 에틸알코올을 제거하는데는 냉풍건조가 효과적이었다. 원료어육에 대한 제품의 수율은 명태와 고등어가 각각 $19.9\%$ 및 $29.8\%$ 였다. 제품의 단백질함량은 명태가 $84.3\%$, 고등어가 $78.1\%$였으며, 지방함량은 각각 $0.5\%$ 및 $3.6\%$였다. 명태 및 고등어 조직단백질농축물의 필순 아미노 산조성은 우육, 대두조직단백질 및 FAO 표준치와 비교하였을 때 손색이 없었으며, 두 제품 모드 우육과 1:1의 중량비로 혼합하여 맛, 색, 촉감에 손색없이 식품소재로 이용할 수 있다는 결론을 얻었다.
