czynski, Hunt, & Park, 2006; Kasapis, 2006).
The color and texture of meat are critical characteristics for consumers
(Karpińska-Tymoszczyk, 2014). The rate of postmortem glycolysis
which happens during frozen storage is determinant for color
development (Jeong et al., 2010). According to Farouk et al. (2003),
freezing rate and storage time affect meat lightness. Texture is affected
by biological conditions of the animal, methods of slaughter, storage
and processing conditions or culinary treatments. During frozen storage
muscle may suffer unwanted changes in texture, resulting in a hard and
dry product accompanied by myofibrillar proteins aggregation
