Abstract
The effect of varying levels of two colourants on quality characteristics of beef gels processed with reduced by 50% sodium nitrite content was investigated. Sausage quality was determined by measuring technological, colour and organoleptic characteristics. Both colourants used as recipe components of a batter increased redness of experimental sausages and favourably affected colour acceptability ratings by taste panel. Exposition of sausages to light resulted in a significant progressive decrease of redness accompanied by increase in lightness and yellowness. No significant influence of the colourants on thermal stability of sausages and residual nitrite level was observed.
