The cuisine of Bahia, a state in Brazil, originates from African, indigenous, and European cultures, and its recipes are widespread in books and popular knowledge. Among the characteristic ingredients is the dried shrimp, which is used as a seasoning or as the main ingredient. This study sought to investigate the first uses of dried shrimp and its roles in Bahian cuisine. A review was carried out, based on classic books on Brazilian and Bahian dishes and a survey of recipes using dried shrimp, identifying the names of the dishes, ingredients, and preparation methods. Fourteen books were found that dealt with the uses of dried shrimp, and fifty dishes were recorded. Based on the books, the origin of the use of dried shrimp is linked to the practices of African origin, although it was not possible to precisely explain its introduction into Bahian food. Among the dishes were sauces and braised foods, which mainly use vegetables such as yams, corn, and beans, or include animal-derived ingredients, such as poultry and offal. Popular dishes such as acarajé, caruru, and vatapá stood out, as did some votive dishes such as amalá and ipetê, and others that are no longer used, such as badofe. Among the authors, differences in the ingredients and ways of making some dishes were perceived, which expresses culinary dynamics over time and in the multiple territorial configurations where they are made. The study highlights the secular and traditional use of dried shrimp in Afro-Bahian food culture, associating an active and changing process in preparation and consumption practices. Given the difficulty in identifying in detail the origin of the use of dried shrimp in dishes, future studies based on historical research are reaffirmed.

巴西巴伊亚州的美食源于非洲、土著和欧洲文化，其食谱在书籍和大众知识中广为流传。虾干是其特色配料之一，可用作调料或主料。本研究试图调查虾干的最初用途及其在巴伊亚美食中的作用。根据有关巴西和巴伊亚菜肴的经典书籍和使用虾干的食谱调查，确定了菜肴名称、配料和制作方法，并进行了回顾。结果发现有 14 本书介绍了虾干的用途，并记录了 50 道菜。根据这些书籍，使用虾干的起源与源自非洲的习俗有关，尽管无法准确解释其引入巴伊亚饮食的原因。这些菜肴包括酱汁和烩菜，主要使用山药、玉米和豆类等蔬菜，或使用家禽和内脏等动物性食材。acarajé、caruru 和 vatapá 等受欢迎的菜肴，以及 amalá 和 ipetê 等一些祭祀菜肴，还有一些已经不再使用的菜肴，如 badofe，都非常突出。作者们发现，一些菜肴的配料和制作方法存在差异，这反映了烹饪随着时间的推移和菜肴制作地的多重地域配置而发生的变化。这项研究强调了干虾在非洲-巴希亚饮食文化中的世俗和传统用途，将制作和消费习俗中一个积极和不断变化的过程联系起来。鉴于难以详细确定在菜肴中使用虾干的起源，今后基于历史研究的研究再次得到肯定。

This review aims to provide a better understanding on different cooking methods and their effects on the safety and quality on the fish. Each cooking method offers different desired properties and negative impact to the fish in terms of nutritional composition, sensory quality, lipid oxidation, and microbiological aspect. Several cooking techniques had a long history of preparing fish with desirable taste and flavour such as steaming, boiling, smoking, and traditional frying. Recent years, new emerging cooking techniques such as air frying, microwave cooking, sous vide, mild oven cooking, and ohmic thermal cooking had also been explored for fish cooking. These techniques had been developed with the intention to improve the nutritional quality of the food through advanced technology in reducing heating temperature and cooking duration to as low as 50 °C and 10 s. These allow the preservation of nutrients, while reducing undesirable compounds such as acrylamide and other oxidative compounds. Besides that, the sensory quality and stability of the cooked fish may also improve from the low occurrence of lipid oxidation. Nevertheless, more studies are required for the use of emerging cooking techniques on fish. This review provides insight into the impact of different parameters used in different cooking methods on the quality and safety of different fish species. The need for optimization of the parameters for different cooking techniques was also emphasized. More innovative cooking techniques that is environmental friendly with higher energy efficiency should be explored for fish cooking to improve sustainability.

本综述旨在让人们更好地了解不同的烹饪方法及其对鱼类安全和质量的影响。在营养成分、感官质量、脂质氧化和微生物方面，每种烹饪方法都会给鱼带来不同的理想特性和负面影响。有几种烹饪技术历史悠久，可以烹制出具有理想口感和风味的鱼类，如蒸、煮、熏和传统煎炸。近年来，新出现的烹饪技术，如空气油炸、微波烹饪、苏氏蒸煮、温和烤箱烹饪和欧姆热烹饪也被用于鱼类烹饪。开发这些技术的目的是通过先进技术将加热温度和烹饪时间降至 50 ℃ 和 10 秒，从而提高食品的营养质量。此外，由于脂质氧化发生率低，熟鱼的感官质量和稳定性也可能得到改善。不过，还需要进行更多的研究，以便在鱼类上使用新的烹饪技术。本综述深入探讨了不同烹饪方法中使用的不同参数对不同鱼类质量和安全的影响。还强调了优化不同烹饪技术参数的必要性。在鱼类烹饪中应探索更多能源效率更高的环保型创新烹饪技术，以提高可持续性。

Tea is a popular beverage consumed all around the world. Its origins can be traced back to China, where it has been cultivated for thousands of years. A subcategory of tea is referred to as ‘insect tea’; it is produced using the excrement (frass) of insects that consume plants. This study explored the utilisation of silkworm frass, a by-product of silk production, as a novel beverage in the culinary field. It explored optimal preparation methods, and measured physicochemical properties, volatile aroma compounds, the sensory aroma profile, and consumer acceptance. Silkworm frass was collected and roasted at 160 °C for 0, 30, 40, and 50 min. The analysis revealed notable differences in the samples' water activity, moisture content, colour, and pH: Moisture content and water activity decreased, preventing spoilage of the samples, while pH increased, and the colour intensified. The volatile aroma analysis revealed 65 compounds, including alcohols, aldehydes, esters, ethers, ketones, phenols, pyrazines, and hydrocarbons. These compounds exhibited significant variations in concentration depending on the duration of roasting. Sensory evaluation presented distinct attributes associated with each sample, such as earthy and roasted aromas in all samples, and specific aromas of brown herbal aftertaste and tobacco leaves in the 50-min sample, roasted grain aromas in the 40-min sample, and stronger notes of cut hay for both the 30-min and 50-min sample. The hedonic sensory test revealed that the duration of roasting did not influence consumer preferences in terms of the attributes of taste, aroma, colour, texture, and overall acceptance. The novel ‘tea’ demonstrates potential in the gastronomy industry due to its aroma profile and positive consumer acceptance. It is a promising example of an upcycled culinary product that utilizes by-products from silk farms.

茶是一种在全世界广受欢迎的饮料。它的起源可以追溯到中国，在中国已有数千年的种植历史。茶的一个子类被称为 "昆虫茶"，它是利用昆虫食用植物后的排泄物（蚕蛹）制成的。本研究探讨了如何利用蚕的副产品--蚕蛹作为烹饪领域的新型饮料。研究探讨了最佳制备方法，并测量了理化特性、挥发性香气化合物、感官香气特征和消费者接受度。收集蚕蛹，在 160 °C 下分别焙烧 0、30、40 和 50 分钟。分析表明，样品的水分活性、含水量、颜色和 pH 值都有显著差异：水分含量和水活性降低，防止了样品变质，而 pH 值升高，颜色加深。挥发性香气分析显示有 65 种化合物，包括醇类、醛类、酯类、醚类、酮类、酚类、吡嗪类和碳氢化合物。根据焙烧时间的长短，这些化合物的浓度变化很大。感官评估显示，每个样品都有独特的属性，例如所有样品都有泥土和烘烤的香味，50 分钟的样品有棕色草本余味和烟叶的特殊香味，40 分钟的样品有烘烤谷物的香味，30 分钟和 50 分钟的样品都有较浓的干草香味。享乐主义感官测试表明，在口感、香气、色泽、质地和总体接受度方面，烘焙时间的长短并不影响消费者的偏好。这种新型 "茶 "因其香气浓郁、消费者接受度高而显示出在美食行业的潜力。它是利用丝绸农场副产品的循环再造烹饪产品的一个很有前景的例子。

Jiuqu hongmei tea (JQHM tea), unique to Zhejiang Province, China, is celebrated for its vibrant, delightful taste and distinctive flavor profile. This research explored the relationship between the tea's characteristic flavor during fermentation and the dynamics of microbial communities. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were analyzed using Headspace Solid-Phase Microextraction coupled with Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) at three key stages: machine kneading (MK, 0.5 h), primary fermentation (F1, 1.5 h), and secondary fermentation (F2, 3 h). Concurrently, microbial communities were characterized through high-throughput sequencing. The study identified 12 significant VOCs and pinpointed 10 core bacterial and 9 core fungal genera. These findings revealed the intricate changes in aroma compounds and microbial populations throughout JQHM tea's fermentation process, highlighting the interplay between key aroma compounds and principal microbial genera. This knowledge provided a crucial theoretical foundation for refining the tea's processing stages and enhancing its flavor quality.

This study aimed to develop and characterize two mixed beverages with probiotic potential containing yellow mombin and T. triangulare leaves and stems. The fermentation conditions of Lacticaseibacillus casei NRRL B- 442 (probiotic microorganism) were studied through two central composite rotated experimental designs using T. triangulare leaves tea and yellow mombin pulp (Beverage 1) or T. triangulare stems tea and yellow mombin pulp (Beverage 2) as a mixed base. Moreover, the impact of sucrose and stevia on microbial viability, color, and antioxidant activity of probiotics products was evaluated during 42 days of storage at refrigerated conditions. The sensory characteristics were also assessed. For beverage 1, the greatest microorganism growth was obtained with 45.43% mixed base and an initial pH of 6.1; for beverage 2, it was 40.45% mixed base and an initial pH of 6.0. The maximal viability for both beverages was 14 h at 30 °C. The viability of the probiotic microorganism remained above the concentration necessary to be considered potentially probiotic during storage at refrigeration for 42 days in beverages added of sucrose and stevia. During storage, the mixed beverage darkened and reduced antioxidant activity. For the sensory evaluation, the categories most mentioned in the free word association method were healthiness and sensory characteristics (appearance, aroma, and flavor). These categories deserve the most attention for developing new products and advertising professionals disclosing and launching them on the market. The yellow mombin and T. triangulare stem had higher (p < 0.05) acceptance by the hedonic scale. The results showed that the yellow mombin and leaves and stems of the T. triangulare are potential raw materials for probiotic production.

本研究旨在开发和鉴定两种含有黄妈妈和三角枫茎叶的具有益生菌潜力的混合饮料。通过两个中心复合旋转实验设计，以三角梅叶茶和黄皮果肉（饮料 1）或三角梅茎茶和黄皮果肉（饮料 2）为混合基料，研究了乳酸酶杆菌 NRRL B- 442（益生菌微生物）的发酵条件。此外，还评估了蔗糖和甜叶菊对益生菌产品在冷藏条件下储存 42 天期间的微生物活力、色泽和抗氧化活性的影响。此外，还对感官特征进行了评估。对于饮料 1 而言，混合碱含量为 45.43%、初始 pH 值为 6.1 时，微生物生长速度最快；对于饮料 2 而言，混合碱含量为 40.45%、初始 pH 值为 6.0 时，微生物生长速度最快。两种饮料在 30 °C 下的最大存活时间均为 14 小时。添加了蔗糖和甜叶菊的饮料在冷藏条件下储存 42 天后，益生微生物的存活率仍高于潜在益生菌所需的浓度。在储存期间，混合饮料的颜色变深，抗氧化活性降低。在感官评价方面，自由词联想法中提及最多的类别是健康性和感官特征（外观、香气和风味）。这些类别最值得开发新产品和广告专业人员在市场上披露和推出。在享乐量表中，黄妈妈和三角枫茎的接受度更高（p < 0.05）。结果表明，黄妈妈和三角枫茎叶是生产益生菌的潜在原料。

The objective of this study was to evaluate the combined effects of different enzyme (papain, bromelain and fungal protease) treatments and aging methods (dry and wet aging) on physico-chemical and microbiological parameters, lipid oxidation, sarcomere length, colour, shear force and sensory attributes of beef striploins during 28-day aging period. For this purpose, Longissimus lumborum muscles (n = 24, 12 carcasses) at 24h postmortem were subjected to dry (2 ± 1 °C, 75% relative humidity and 2m/s air-flow) and wet (vacuum-packaged, 2 ± 1 °C) aging methods after enzyme treatments. The microbial growth (P < 0.05) and lipid oxidation (P < 0.001) in wet-aged beef were lower than dry-aged beef, and a decrease in those treated with fungal protease was observed (P < 0.05), while an increase in sarcomere length and water holding capacity, and a decrease in cooking losses were provided with dry aging (P < 0.001). Dry aging combined with papain enzyme enhanced and accelerated meat tenderization in a reduced aging time (P < 0.001), whereas an improvement in flavour and aroma was achieved with bromelain and fungal protease treatments. Surface colour of dry and wet-aged beef showed significant differences during aging period (P < 0.05), while lower b∗, h∗ values and metmyoglobin content were recorded in enzyme-treated striploins. Consequently, combined usage of aging methods with enzyme treatments can be preferred as an effective application to improve the tenderness and palatability of beef with accelerated aging period, and provides an opportunity for meat industry to supply value adding beef in a shorter time.

本研究的目的是评估不同酶（木瓜蛋白酶、菠萝蛋白酶和真菌蛋白酶）处理和老化方法（干式老化和湿式老化）在 28 天老化期间对牛肉条的理化和微生物参数、脂质氧化、肉筋长度、色泽、剪切力和感官属性的综合影响。为此，对宰后 24 小时的腰长肌肌肉（n = 24，12 块胴体）在酶处理后分别采用干法（2 ± 1 °C，相对湿度 75%，气流速度 2m/s）和湿法（真空包装，2 ± 1 °C）进行老化。湿法陈化牛肉的微生物生长（P < 0.05）和脂质氧化（P < 0.001）均低于干法陈化牛肉，经真菌蛋白酶处理的牛肉微生物生长和脂质氧化均有所下降（P < 0.05），而干法陈化牛肉的肌节长度和持水能力有所增加，蒸煮损失有所减少（P < 0.001）。干法老化与木瓜蛋白酶结合使用可在缩短老化时间的同时增强和加速肉质嫩化（P < 0.001），而菠萝蛋白酶和真菌蛋白酶处理可改善风味和香气。干牛肉和湿牛肉的表面颜色在老化期间有显著差异（P < 0.05），而经过酶处理的带肋牛肉的 b∗、h∗ 值和高铁血红蛋白含量较低。因此，将老化方法与酶处理结合使用，可以有效改善牛肉的嫩度和适口性，并缩短老化时间，为肉类行业提供了一个在更短时间内供应高附加值牛肉的机会。

Local foods offer benefits for the sustainability of the food supply chain, yet they face challenges due to variability in production and market saturation. This highlights the importance of strategies to enhance their value. Among local foods, multifloral honey is one of the products most closely tied to the territory. A comprehension of how multifloral honey is structured from a sensory standpoint can prove advantageous in enhancing its recognition and valorization among consumers. The present study aimed to promote multifloral honey in the case of a local area, identifying typical examples of multifloral honey and their sensory determinants, and identifying the association among sensory attributes and affective-related responses of consumers. Thirty samples of multifloral honey were collected from a target local area (Trento province - Italy). Experts in honey sensory evaluation (n = 47) performed a rapid descriptive task (check-all-that-apply questions) and a categorization task (typicality evaluation). Six samples representative of the category sensory space were selected for consumer evaluation. Consumers recruited from the local area (n = 131) rated liking and elicited post-consumption emotional product associations. The results unveiled the sensory representation of the multifloral honey category, with samples arrangement in accordance with category typicality. The study defined the sensory characteristics associated with typicality of the multifloral honey from the target local area and identified local consumers' affective-related responses to the features that define the typicality. Beyond the honey realm, this approach can represent a model of a methodological approach for studying the enhancement of local foods that exhibit relevant sensory variability.

地方食品为食品供应链的可持续性带来了好处，但由于生产的多变性和市场饱和，它们面临着挑战。这凸显了提高其价值的战略的重要性。在地方食品中，多花蜂蜜是与地方联系最紧密的产品之一。从感官角度了解多花蜂蜜的结构，有利于提高消费者对其的认可度和价值。本研究旨在推广当地的多花蜂蜜，确定多花蜂蜜的典型例子及其感官决定因素，并确定感官属性与消费者情感反应之间的关联。从目标地区（意大利特伦托省）收集了 30 份多花蜂蜜样品。蜂蜜感官评估专家（n = 47）进行了快速描述任务（检查所有适用问题）和分类任务（典型性评估）。在类别感官空间中选择了六个具有代表性的样品进行消费者评估。从当地招募的消费者（n = 131）对产品进行了喜欢度评价，并在消费后引发了对产品的情感联想。结果揭示了多花蜂蜜类别的感官代表，并根据类别的典型性对样品进行了排列。该研究定义了与目标地区多花蜂蜜典型性相关的感官特征，并确定了当地消费者对定义典型性特征的情感反应。除蜂蜜领域外，这种方法还可作为一种方法论模式，用于研究如何提高当地食品的感官变异性。

This study investigated the physicochemical factors, bacterial communities, and volatile aromatic components in watermelon soybean pastes (WSP) prepared with different ratios of different watermelon juice to koji during the fermentation process. The results indicated that high concentration of watermelon juice could significantly increase the contents of amino acid nitrogen, reducing sugar, and free amino acids, but decreased bacterial diversity. Enterococcus, Bacillus, Enterobacter, Staphylococcus, Pediococcus, Lactobacillus, and Weissella were identified as the dominant genus bacteria in WSP samples, while Enterococcus and Pediococcus were found to account for more than 50% in WSP-4 samples. In WSP samples, this study identified 142 volatile components, the concentration of volatile components was more abundant in WSP-4 samples compared to WSP-2 and WSP-3 samples, especially in the pyrazine family. Furthermore, E-nose results showed that the influence of watermelon juice on the aroma components of WSP samples was mainly focused on the late fermentation periods, but aroma profiles were relatively similar in all WSP samples regardless of watermelon juice concentration throughout the fermentation period. Therefore, this study discovered that controlling the amount of watermelon juice and fermentation time can affect the aroma profiles of WSP samples to a certain extent, and improve the industrial production and food quality.

本研究调查了在发酵过程中使用不同比例的西瓜汁和麴制备的西瓜大豆酱（WSP）中的理化因素、细菌群落和挥发性芳香成分。结果表明，高浓度西瓜汁能显著提高氨基酸态氮、还原糖和游离氨基酸的含量，但降低了细菌的多样性。在 WSP 样品中，发现肠球菌、芽孢杆菌、肠杆菌、葡萄球菌、木薯球菌、乳酸杆菌和魏氏菌是优势菌属，而在 WSP-4 样品中，肠球菌和木薯球菌占 50%以上。本研究在 WSP 样品中鉴定出 142 种挥发性成分，与 WSP-2 和 WSP-3 样品相比，WSP-4 样品中的挥发性成分浓度更高，尤其是吡嗪类。此外，电子鼻检测结果表明，西瓜汁对 WSP 样品香气成分的影响主要集中在发酵后期，但在整个发酵期间，无论西瓜汁浓度如何，所有 WSP 样品的香气特征都比较相似。因此，本研究发现，控制西瓜汁的用量和发酵时间能在一定程度上影响西瓜汁样品的香气特征，提高工业生产和食品质量。

Fishing is an important economic activity for the coastal regions of Brazil. This study aims to analyze the proximate composition of coró fish (Pomadasys corvinaeformis) and develop new preparations using this fish, common on the coast of the state of Ceará, in the municipality of Camocim. The methodology included analysis of the proximate composition of the fish filet, development of culinary preparations, microbiological analysis and sensory evaluation of the products prepared. Two preparations were developed: a coró cake and a coró cream, both subjected to microbiological and acceptance analysis. The coró filet is rich in protein and has a moderate lipid content, comparable to other fish species consumed in the region. The sensory analysis, carried out with focus groups from the fishing community and the general population of Camocim, revealed a high acceptance of the preparations, with a preference for coró cream. The analysis highlighted the importance of the characteristic flavor of coró in the preparations and suggested improvements, such as adjustments to the texture and color of the coró cake. Hence, the potential of coró as an important source of nutrients and an element of local gastronomy enhancements is emphasized. The preparations presented an alternative to diversifying the use of fish in regional cuisine and reinforcing Camocim's cultural food identity. The study suggests continuing research in the area, developing educational materials on food sovereignty, and incorporating traditional foods into the school curriculum as strategies to promote the appreciation of local products and the nutritional health of the population.

捕鱼是巴西沿海地区的一项重要经济活动。本研究旨在分析科罗鱼（Pomadasys corvinaeformis）的近似成分，并利用这种常见于塞阿拉州卡莫西姆市沿海地区的鱼类开发新的烹饪方法。研究方法包括分析鱼片的近似成分、开发烹饪方法、微生物分析以及对所制备产品的感官评估。研究开发了两种烹饪方法：科罗蛋糕和科罗奶油，这两种烹饪方法都进行了微生物分析和验收分析。科罗鱼片富含蛋白质，脂质含量适中，与该地区食用的其他鱼类相当。感官分析由来自渔业社区和卡莫西姆普通居民的重点小组进行，结果显示，人们对这些制剂的接受度很高，更偏爱科罗奶油。分析强调了 coró 的特色风味在制剂中的重要性，并提出了改进建议，如调整 coró 蛋糕的质地和颜色。因此，科罗作为一种重要的营养来源和地方美食元素的潜力得到了强调。这些烹饪方法为丰富鱼类在地方美食中的应用和加强卡莫辛的饮食文化特征提供了一种选择。该研究建议继续在该领域开展研究，编写有关粮食主权的教育材料，并将传统食品纳入学校课程，以此作为促进当地产品的鉴赏力和人口营养健康的战略。

Neglected and Underutilized Species (NUS) are crops that belong to niche agricultural systems, yet they possess desirable benefits both for human consumption and the environment. While the advantages of cultivating NUS seem attractive, there is still little interest among consumers to consume more food from NUS. Hence, the goal of this study was to ascertain the degree of familiarity and perceived benefits among consumers towards a selection of NUS, as well as factors that can potentially drive interest in these commodities. Through a consumer survey of 4802 individuals, this study revealed that consumers were already familiar to some NUS crops while there were other crops that were not as popular. This study also exhibited that consumers generally perceived baked products such as breads to be suitable carriers of NUS ingredients as opposed to packaged soups but geographic variation was observed, as presented by correspondence analysis in mapping country-preferred NUS applications. Furthermore, consumer appreciation of NUS stemmed from their perceived health and environmental benefits while some did not necessarily associate the economic benefits for farmers with NUS crops. Lastly, binary logistic regression showed that environmental beliefs (OR: 3.94) and health and taste attitudes (OR: 5.76) seemed to drive an individual’s curiosity to learn more of NUS, signalling potential consumer psychographics that can initially forward the expansion of NUS consumption.

被忽视和未充分利用的物种（NUS）是属于小众农业系统的作物，但它们对人类消费和环境都具有理想的益处。虽然种植 NUS 的优势似乎很有吸引力，但消费者对消费更多 NUS 食品的兴趣仍然不大。因此，本研究的目标是确定消费者对部分新南美的熟悉程度和感知益处，以及可能推动对这些商品产生兴趣的因素。通过对 4802 人进行消费者调查，本研究发现，消费者已经熟悉一些新新农业作物，而其他作物则不那么受欢迎。这项研究还显示，消费者普遍认为面包等烘焙产品与包装汤料相比，更适合作为新鲜牛奶成分的载体，但在绘制各国首选的新鲜牛奶应用图时，通过对应分析发现了地域差异。此外，消费者对 NUS 的赞赏源于他们认为 NUS 对健康和环境的益处，而有些消费者并不一定会将 NUS 作物给农民带来的经济效益联系起来。最后，二元逻辑回归显示，环境信念（OR：3.94）和健康与口味态度（OR：5.76）似乎推动了个人了解更多 NUS 的好奇心，这表明潜在的消费者心理特征可初步推动 NUS 消费的扩大。
