Abstract

The level of binders (starch, refined wheat flour and milk powder) was optimized with respect to sensory quality of ready-to-eat kebab made from a dehydrated mix. The optimized levels (as % of cooked meat) were 4.5% starch, 9.5% refined wheat flour and 2% milk powder. Dehydrated chicken kebab mix prepared with optimized quantities of binders and spices was packed in metalized polyester pouches, stored at ambient temp. (27 2C) for 6 months and sampled periodically for quality evaluation. A gradual decrease (P <less than or equal to> 0.05) in pH from 5.8 to 5.5, increases (P <less than or equal to> 0.05) in aw from 0.31% to 0.42%, in moisture from 5.4% to 6.2%, in free fatty acid values from 0.99 to 1.74 as per cent oleic acid and in TBA numbers from 2.9 to 5.3 mg malonaldehyde kg-1 were observed during storage. Hunter colour a values increased (P <less than or equal to> 0.05) from 0.30 to 1.29, whereas changes in Hunter L (51.8-53.4) and in Hunter b (19.0-19.5) values were marginal (P <greater than or equal to> 0.05) during storage. The chicken kebab mix was microbiologically safe as indicated by low bacterial counts and absence of coliforms throughout the storage period of 6 months. Fried chicken kebabs prepared from mix stored for up to 6 months were acceptable.
