Abstract
  • This study was undertaken to determine the sensory differences in high pressure vs. heat processed food systems after storage at ambient and refrigerated temperatures as determined by a trained sensory panel. Spanish rice and spaghetti with meat sauce were prepared and treated with heat and with high pressure processing (HHP). A citrus fruit mix consisting of pieces of orange, grapefruit, and pineapple was processed by mild heat and HHP, and heat alone. One day after processing, treated products were tested along with untreated controls. Products were stored at either 22°C or 3°C, and tested at 10, 30, 60, 90, and 120 days. Sensory testing was done by a panel trained in a QDA-type method, and data was analyzed by univariate and multivariate methods. For spaghetti with meat sauce, significant differences (p>0.05) were found between processing methods stored at the same temperature in appearance and texture attributes, with the high pressure processed samples closer to unstored product than those treated by heat. Differences in treatments first appeared in 'dry appearance' at 10 days, and by 120 days there were differences in 'tomato integrity', 'pasta integrity', 'brightness of color', and 'firmness of pasta' as well. Most of these differences were due to the stickiness caused by the extra amylose leaking out of the heat treated pasta over time. For Spanish rice, there were no statistically significant differences between samples processed by the two methods and stored at the same temperature. The Spanish rice was formulated with parboiled rice, which allows very little amylose leakage, so it did not show amylose-related effects as the spaghetti with meat sauce did. The fruit mix processed with HPP and mild heat had significantly higher ratings in appearance attributes 'brightness of color' and piece integrity', and lower ratings in 'cooked' descriptors than product treated with heat alone stored at the same temperature.
