INFLUENCE OF NON-TRADITIONAL RAW MATERIALS ON THE SENSORY CHARACTERISTICS OF FISH PATES
Abstract
The presented article presents the results of a comprehensive study of the influence of Goji berries on the formation of organoleptic indicators of fish pastes from freshwater fish, namely crucian carp. The feasibility of using non-traditional plant raw materials of Goji berries with functional properties for improving the technology of pate products is shown, which corresponds to modern trends in functional nutrition and expanding the range of fish products. In the experimental part of the study, the effect of different concentrations of Goji berries on the taste, aroma characteristics and consistency of pate was determined. The results of sensory analysis showed that the introduction of Goji berries contributes to increasing the harmony of taste, improving the expressiveness of aroma and optimizing the texture of fish pate. The best indicators of overall product perception were observed at a concentration of the additive at 4 %, which allows achieving a balanced combination of taste properties without a negative impact on the structure of the product. Increasing the dosage to 6 % does not lead to a significant improvement in organoleptic indicators and may negatively affect the textural characteristics and color of the pate, which indicates the existence of an optimal level of introduction of a functional additive. The results obtained confirm the prospects of using Goji berries as an innovative functional ingredient, which allows not only to improve the quality and perception of fish pate, but also to increase their competitiveness in the market. The use of non-traditional raw materials with biologically active components opens up new opportunities for the development of high-quality, healthy and innovative food products that meet the modern needs of consumers in functional and balanced products. The results of the study can be used to introduce technological innovations in the production of fish pate and the development of new functional food products that combine traditional and modern approaches to the food industry.
