Rapid urbanization and change in life style have increased demand for tasty, convenience and designer meat products; however, high cost of these products makes it difficult for an average consumer to include these products in their diet. Therefore the objective of present study is the production of low-cost meat products utilising vegetative extenders and comparison of production cost of extended products with the control product. Restructured Chicken Meat Blocks (RCMB) were prepared from a standardized formulation and were extended with optimized level of vegetative extenders viz., lentil flour, sorghum flour, potato, water chestnut flour and extender blend. Optimization of levels of extenders was done by different experiments based on sensory attributes and those having sensory status closer to control were selected. The cost of RCMB after replacement of lean meat with selected leve.. View More»
