Method for treating meat and seafood products with rice bran extract
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to compositions including rice bran extract, method of making rice bran extract and method of using same.
1. A method of treating a meat product or a seafood product, the method comprising:
contacting a meat product or a seafood product with a composition comprising a soluble rice bran extract, wherein the soluble rice bran extract comprises a phosphorous content between about 3% and about 9% (w/w), and wherein a treatment of the meat product or the seafood product with the soluble rice bran extract improves water retention in the meat product or the seafood product.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the meat product or seafood product treated with the soluble rice bran extract has a cooked weight yield that is at least 5% greater than a control comprising an untreated cooked meat product or seafood product.
3. The method of claim 1 comprising contacting the meat product with about 0.5% to about 2% by weight of the soluble rice bran extract.
4. The method of claim 1 comprising contacting the seafood product with a solution comprising about 5% by weight of the soluble rice bran extract.
5. The method of claim 1 comprising contacting the meat product or seafood product with (a) the soluble rice bran extract, and (b) a synthetic antioxidant, a natural antioxidant, a synthetic curing agent, pH buffering agents, a natural curing agent, an antimicrobial or combinations thereof.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the soluble rice bran extract comprises between about 5% to about 7% (w/w) total phosphorous content.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the soluble rice bran extract comprises from about 0.003% to about 0.08% (w/w) total calcium content.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the soluble rice bran extract further comprises one or more of: from about 45% to about 55% (w/w) ash, from about 25% to about 45% (w/w) carbohydrate, from about 4% to about 12% (w/w) protein, from about 3% to about 10% (w/w) dietary fiber.
9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the soluble rice bran extract further comprises from about 45% to about 55% (w/w) ash, from about 25% to about 45% (w/w) carbohydrate, from about 4% to about 12% (w/w) protein, and from about 3% to about 10% (w/w) dietary fiber.
10. The method of claim 7 , wherein the soluble rice bran extract comprises less than about 0.2% (w/w) fat.
11. The method of claim 7 , wherein the soluble rice bran extract comprises from about 15% to about 22% (w/w) total sodium content.
12. The method of claim 7 , wherein the soluble rice bran extract comprises between about 1% to about 12% by weight moisture.
13. The method of claim 7 , the soluble rice bran extract has 120-150 kcal.
14. A method of treating a meat product or a seafood product, the method comprising:
contacting a meat product or a seafood product with a composition comprising (a) a soluble rice bran extract, wherein the soluble rice bran extract comprises a phosphorous content between about 3% and about 9% (w/w) and (b) a natural curing agent comprising a nitrite source, wherein a treatment of the meat product or the seafood product with the soluble rice bran extract improves water retention in the meat product or the seafood product.
15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the composition comprises from about 45% (w/w) to about 70% (w/w) soluble rice bran extract, from about 10% (w/w) to about 30% (w/w) nitrite source, and from about 1% (w/w) to about 40% (w/w) sea salt.
16. The method of claim 14 , wherein the composition comprises 50% (w/w) rice bran extract, 27.8% (w/w) nitrite source, and 20.8% (w/w) sea salt.
17. The method of claim 14 , wherein the soluble rice bran extract comprises between about 5% to about 7% (w/w) total phosphorous content.
18. A method of treating a meat product or a seafood product, the method comprising:
contacting a meat product or a seafood product with a composition comprising rice bran extract, wherein the rice bran extract comprises a phosphorous content between about 3% and about 9% (w/w).
19. The method of claim 18 , wherein the rice bran extract comprises a soluble rice bran extract, wherein the soluble rice bran extract comprises a phosphorous content between about 3% and about 9% (w/w).
20. The method of claim 19 , wherein the composition further comprises a natural curing agent comprising a nitrite source.
21. The method of claim 20 , wherein the composition comprises from about 45% (w/w) to about 70% (w/w) soluble rice bran extract, from about 10% (w/w) to about 30% (w/w) nitrite source, and from about 1% (w/w) to about 40% (w/w) sea salt.
22. The method of claim 18 , wherein the rice bran extract comprises between about 5% to about 7% (w/w) total phosphorous content.
