Description
Summary:Natural fiber is not suitable for modifying yolk gel as a modifier because of its large size and high compactness. In this study, two kinds of modified cellulose were selected to improve the thermal gel properties of yolk. The results showed that the two kinds of cellulose promoted the formation of ordered structure in yolk gel. The ordered gel network not only improved the texture properties and rheological properties, but also improved the water retention of yolk gel significantly. CMC and CNFC at the same concentration, the modification effect of CMC on yolk gel was better than CNFC because of its excellent dispersion. However, high concentration of CNFC (1.20–1.60%) disrupted the cross-linking and ordered structure formation of yolk protein, and the quality of gel was significantly reduced.
