Sensory analysiswas performed on day 0 according to themethod of
Maqsood, Benjakul, and Balange (2012)withmodifications. The sausage
samples were placed in polythene bags and boiled in water for 15 min.
The samples were drained and allowed to cool to room temperature.
They were then sliced into pieces 0.25–0.30 cm thick and served to 15
experienced panelists who were familiar with the sensory profiles of
Chinese-style sausage. Panelists were asked to evaluate the sensory
attributes of sausage samples, including color, flavor, texture and
overall-acceptability. A 9-point hedonic scale was used to determine
these four attributes: 1, dislike extremely; 2, dislike verymuch; 3, dislike
moderately; 4, dislike slightly; 5, neither like nor dislike; 6, like slightly;
7, like moderately; 8, like very much; 9, like extremely.
