Sensory and Consumer Testing on Kitoza, a Malagasy Meat Product

06.05.2014 11:30


Summary: Kitoza is a traditional Malagasy meat product. It is made from beef or pork strips, salted and let dry and/or smoke for preservation. Presently some processors produce and sell smoked Kitoza. Kitoza sensory and consumer testing were undertaken through an international collaborative project funded by European Union “African Food Tradition rEvisited by Research” (AFTER). The aim is to improve nutritional and safety properties of traditional products for local but also new consumers and new markets.

Kitoza sensory profile was performed with a panel (n=18) on 8 smoked Kitoza provided by 5 different producers, with 14 descriptors generated in consensus. Four samples were selected for a consumer study with 200 Malagasy and European consumers. Consumption attitudes were analysed. The results provide information that could be useful for improving the process while meeting consumer demand.

On the 6th of May 2014, at 14h30 in AF202 lecture room. All are invited.
