Abstrak/Abstract |
Cured egg yolk cookies is one of the processed egg products containing egg
yolk which has been curing with salt and sugar. The purpose of this study was to evaluation of
physical, chemical, microbiological and sensory quality of cured egg yolk cookies with various
levels of skim milk powder substitution during storage at room temperature. This study
consisted of the treatment of cured egg yolk substitution with skim milk powder (0; 20; 40%)
and storage treatment (0; 3; 6; 9 weeks). Each treatment was replicated three times. The data
of cookie quality were statistically analyzed using ANOVA. The results showed that cured egg
yolk cookies with various skim milk powder substitution have similar physical and chemical
characteristics, but substituted cookies had a lower fat content (p<0.05). There were no changes
in the moisture content of cookies during 9 weeks of storage. Skim milk powder substitution
could increase the peroxide number, but there was no change in the peroxide number during 3
to 9 weeks of storage. The texture of cured egg yolk cookies with 40% skim milk substitution
was harder (p<0.05) than the 20% skim milk substitution, whereas there was no change in the
texture value of cured egg yolk cookies before and after being stored for 9 weeks. There was
no significant deferences in the sensory quality of cookies between unsubstituted and 40% skim
milk powder substitution. In conclusion, skim milk powder substitution did not change the
physical, chemical, and sensory characteristics, but could reduce fat content, increase the
peroxide number and the hardness of cookies. During 9 weeks of storage, cured egg yolk
cookies are still acceptable microbiologically. |
