Hema K, Shakila RJ, Shanmugam SA and Jawahar P

Low valued short nose white tripod fish (Triacanthus brevirosterus) was used for the preparation of minced meat, surimi and restructured surimi gel products. Eight different restructured surimi gel products (RS-1 to RS-8) were prepared using additives such as corn, egg white and casein in different proportions along with the control. Functional properties examined indicated that the control (RS-1) without additives had higher gel strength of 9.05 kgF than other products. RS-4 with egg white had more whiteness (74.75%) and got 'AA' class in folding test. Microstructure of surimi with egg white (RS-4) had less surface cracks and cavities contributing for good functional properties. Thus, RS-4 prepared with egg white could be best suited for surimi based products.
