    Abstract:
    The effects of the use of normal and pale, soft, and exudative (PSE) meat on the technological and sensorial quality of restructured cooked hams elaborated with different salt contents (0.8, 1.2, 1.6, 2.0, and 2.4%) were investigated. A low salt content implied (P < .05) high cooking loss (6.27 vs 3.25%), expressive moisture and C* values and low hardness. Products elaborated with PSE meat had (P < .05) lower cohesiveness, energy to fracture and hue tone colour and higher springiness than did samples elaborated with normal meat. Salty taste perception was slightly higher for the PSE meat-based products, which were also preferred by the assessors when salt contents lower than 1.6% were used. It was concluded that when PSE meat was used, the addition of 1.2% salt was sufficient to maintain the technological and sensory characteristics of the restructured cooked hams.
