Partial incorporation of black jelly mushroom (Auricularia polytricha) as a plant‐based ingredient in the production of hybrid patties using meat from different species

Summary The impact of meat replacement with black jelly mushrooms as a means to produce hybrid patties using meat from different species (chicken‐MCP, beef‐MBP, mutton‐MMP and buffalo‐MBOP) was investigated. For this purpose, 50% of the meat was replaced with black jelly mushrooms. A patty with 100% mushroom (CMP) was observed as a control. Proximate composition, water holding capacity (WHC), cooking yield, shrinkage, pH, gel strength, colour, texture, microstructure and sensory acceptance of the patties were analysed. MBP had the highest WHC (88.51%) and gel strength (24.89 N) compared to other patties (P
