Alternative of Phosphate by Freeze- or Oven-Dried Winter Mushroom Powder in Beef Patty

mycolabadmin

This study tested whether mushroom powder could replace chemical additives in beef patties. Researchers compared freeze-dried and oven-dried winter mushroom powder against sodium pyrophosphate, a common meat additive. Oven-dried mushroom powder was better at preventing spoilage through oxidation, while freeze-dried powder helped retain moisture. While mushroom powder showed promise, it could only partially replace phosphate and would work best combined with other natural ingredients.
