Notes:
Evacuation of the chamber of the press used to form flaked beef into a restructured meat product (patty) did not affect the binding strength of the cooked patty but under some conditions decreased the cooking loss. In studies using patty mixes containing 0–1.0% added sodium chloride, meat binding strength increased with decrease in the temperature of the mix when formed into patties over the temperature range - 1° to -5°C. The largest effect generally occurred between - 1° and -2°C. However, the effect was only noted in patties that were frozen (-30°C) before being cooked for assessment. With decrease below - 1°C of the temperature of patties when pressed, cooking losses increased for the patties without added salt but decreased for those with added salt (0.5% or 1%). Change in the pressure applied to form the patty (in the range 1.4–13.7 MPa) can affect binding strength.
