Abstract: | "Jinhua dry-cured ham (JDH) is a traditional fermented meat product favored by Chinese consumers. In this paper, the impact of steaming on the key odorants of JDH was investigated using the sensomics approach. Compounds with odor activity values (OAV) >/=1 were re-engineered in a triglyceride matrix to imitate the odor profiles of both raw and steamed JDHs. The aroma-active compounds were then confirmed by recombination and omission tests using triangle tests. The odor profiles of raw and steamed JDHs were obtained by quantitative descriptive analysis to compare the differences between the original and recombined models. The results showed that pentanal, hexanal, dimethyl trisulfide, (E,E)-2,4-decadienal, (E)-2-heptenal, furaneol, 3-methylbutanoic acid, 1-octen-3-one, and methional influenced the overall raw JDH odor significantly. Furaneol was first reported as a key compound that provides a caramel smell to the raw JDH. Apart from (E)-2-heptenal, dimethyl trisulfide, furaneol, 3-methylbutanoic acid, and methional, the remaining three compounds including 2-furfurylthiol, benzeneacetaldehyde, and phenylethyl alcohol showed a significant influence on the odor profile of steamed JDH. The statistical analysis of the odor profiles showed an 80.0% similarity between the recombination raw JDH and the real raw JDH, and a 76.3% similarity between the model and the real steamed JDH" |
