Proximate composition and sensory evaluation of salted pearl mullet (Chalcalburnus tarichi Pallas, 1811) produced using different methods

Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the proximate composition and sensory scores of the salted pearl mullet (Chalcalburnus tarichi Pallas, 1811) produced using different methods. It was determined that the OS11 group had the highest amounts of dry matter and protein (82.77 ± 0.52% and 44.52 ± 0.28%) (p < 0.05). The OS11 group had the highest value of energy (404.59 ± 1.33 kcal/100g) (p < 0.05). The highest taste score (6.88 ± 0.83) and the highest overall acceptance score (7.25 ± 0.73) in raw samples were obtained by the NS31 group and the NS32 group (p < 0.05), respectively. ...
