Notes:
A controlled study to assess effect of method of catching and time of season upon blood clot, color, discoloration/bruising, odor, texture and final overall grades of fresh raw cod, muscle pH of thawed cod, and firmness (shear-compression force) of cooked muscle was conducted. Sensory analyses revealed that method of catching significantly (P ≤ 0.001) affected only color, discoloration/bruising, and final overall grades. Time of season did not significantly affect any sensory variables. Muscle pH was significantly (P ≤ 0.001) affected by both method of catching and time of season. Any significant effect of time of season upon firmness of cooked cod muscle depended upon method of catching. In general, method of catching was the most important factor affecting sensory quality of fresh raw Atlantic cod.
