Summary

Effects of freezing and cold storage on the water-holding capacity and texture of sausages containing 7.2, 12.8 and 20.1% lipids, 0, 1.5 and 3% egg white, and 0, 5 and 10% starch. Sausages with high lipid contents were found to have better cohesion than low-fat sausages. Adding starch improved freeze-thaw stability. The presence of egg whites had no effect on the water-holding capacity, but did influence the texture of the sausages.
