Abstract
  • Least cost formulations for surimi seafood were studied by linear programming (LP) and nonlinear programming (NLP). The effects of water and starches on functional properties of Alaska pollock and Pacific whiting surimi gels were investigated. Six starches (modified potato starch, potato starch, modified wheat starch, wheat starch, modified waxy corn starch, and corn starch) and their mixtures were used as ingredients. Mixture and extreme vertices design were used as experimental designs. Canonical models were applied to the optimization techniques. Blending different kinds of surimi showed linear trends for each functional property, so that LP was successfully employed to optimize surimi lots. Strong interactions were found between surimi and starch or in starch mixtures. Two optimum solutions, obtained from LP and NLP, were compared in this study. Corn starch and modified waxy corn starch greatly improved the functional properties.
