Abstract

Conventional surimi processing from white flesh fish, such as Pacific whiting and Alaska Pollee utilizes only <25% of the body (Toyoda and others 1992; Park and others 1997). Conventional surimi is refined myofibrillar proteins processed by removing unnecessary foreign materials such as fat, pigment skin, and water soluble sarcoplasmic proteins. The acid-aided process demonstrated excellent gel forming ability for cod and mackerel with extremely higher yield (Hultin and Kelleher 1999). (omitted)
