"Mozzarellas have to have a certain profile -- fat level, moisture level, etc. -- but Cotija doesn't have that".
However, live weight changes were higher (P < 0.05) for ewes with no differences between 3% fat level and control groups, and lower in does with increased fat level and with no differences between the 2 treatment groups.
The higher the casein fraction and/or the fat level, the less interspaced voids in the network were observed.
Particle size increased as a function of increasing whey protein content and decreased as a function of increased fat level.
Panellists detected an increase in juiciness and a decrease in overall texture, overall acceptability when the fat level was reduced from 30to5%5%.
Instron texture profile analysis showed a decrease in hardness, chewiness and gumminess and an increase in springiness with decreasing fat level.
Furthermore, when information on the fat source was provided the consumers seemed to attach less importance than they should have to the total fat level.
Introducing DWPC did not reduce fat retention in the curd, except at 0.75% when combined with the highest fat level (3.4%).
Among fat content of chocolate milk, 2 and 1% fat level were most appealing to consumers, and reduced sugar and regular sugar were equally important for purchase intent.
The effects of fat level (5, 12 and 30%) and maltodextrin on emulsion stability, cook loss, colour, texture and sensory characteristics of frankfurters were investigated.
The present study investigated the effect of altering the fat level (13.8, 18.2, 22.7, 27.9, and 32.5 g/100 g) in PCP on their chemical and physical properties.
