RESUMO
The effects of ethylcellulose (EC) concentration (6-12 %) and types of vegetable oil (sunflower, peanut, corn, and flaxseed oils) on the color, hardness, oil loss, lipid oxidation, and rheology property of oleogels were investigated in this study. Peanut oil (PO) oleogel was selected to replace pork fat partially in Harbin red sausage. Meanwhile, the fatty acid profile, texture, and sensory attributes of the reformulated sausages were analyzed. Oleogels formulated with higher EC concentration had higher brightness and hardness, a higher degree of lipid oxidation, and greater storage (G') and loss (G'') moduli. Oleogels formulated with PO had lower oil loss, flaxseed oil oleogel had higher hardness. Corn oil and PO oleogels had a lower level of lipid oxidation. The texture, lipid oxidation, and sensory attributes of the reformulated sausages, in which 10-30 % pork fat was replaced with PO oleogel, did not significantly differ from those without oleogel replacement. Meanwhile, the reformulated sausages had a healthier fatty acids profile and higher nutritional value.

The effects of fat/oil type (pork fat; sunflower seed, peanut, corn and flaxseed oils) and ethylcellulose (EC) concentration (8%, 10% and 12%) on the gel characteristic of pork batter were investigated in this study. Replacing pork fat in meat batter with organogels prepared with EC and vegetable oils obtained cooked batters with higher hardness, gumminess and chewiness, furthermore, increasing EC level in the organogels increased hardness, while cohesiveness and springiness showed no significant changes. Emulsion stability of all organogels groups was improved compared to pork fat group and the type of vegetable oil affected the emulsion stability. A shorter relaxation time T2 and a larger peak area P22 were observed for batters formulated with oraganogels, which indicated higher percentage of immobilized water. The batters prepared with pork fat displayed larger fat globules, lower L* value than those prepared with organogels, but the redness (a* values) had no significant difference.
