Table 4. Effect of various salts on curing yield, cooking loss, TBA value, and Warner-Bratzler shear force of cured pork loin.
Parameters | Refined salt | Solar salt | Bamboo salt |
---|---|---|---|
Curing yield (%) | 103.89±0.89 | 102.31±1.15 | 102.78±0.91 |
Cooking loss (%) | 7.71±0.95B | 8.41±0.68A | 8.26±0.52A |
TBA (mg/ kg) | 0.09±0.04A | 0.07±0.03AB | 0.04±0.06B |
Warner-Bratzler shear force (kg) | 4.46±0.78B | 5.95±0.15A | 5.67±0.73A |
All values are mean±standard deviation of triplicates.
A,BMeans within a row with different letters are significantly different (p<0.05).
