Samples were weighed (40 g), cut into small pieces and
placed in a plastic bag with small holes.
This bag was then put into another bag with the holes
at the bottom to drain the sample drip and was cooked hanging in an oven (Rational Combi-Master
CM6) for 20 min at 100 °C.
The sample was weighed after cooling.
Cooking loss was expressed as g/100 g by weight difference between uncooked and cooked samples.
