AbstractThe effects of the mixture of pig skin (PS) and coconut powder (CP) on the gelling and rheological properties of composite gel prepared with squid myofibrillar protein (MP) and lard were studied. The addition of PS and CP gel had significantly improved the water-holding capacity (WHC) and gelling properties of MP-Lard composite gel. Besides, composite gels with an adequate amount of PS and CP gel had a better texture and higher whiteness. The SDS-PAGE results showed that the presence of PS and CP gel did not affect the coagulated proteins in composite gels. The three-dimensional network structures of composite gels containing PS and CP gel were more compact and homogeneous. In general, the mixture of PS and CP could enhance the gel quality of MP-Lard composite gel and it could be used as a fat substitute in surimi products.
