Sifat Fisik Daging Sapi Dark Firm Dry (DFD) Hasil Fermentasi Bakteri Asam Laktat Lactobacillus plantarum
Abstract: A dark firm dry beef
(DFD) can be produced in meat from animal with a degree of stress
susceptibility. This type of meat is very sticky in texture and not palatable.
The aim of the research was to study physical properties of DFD beef fermented
by Lactobacillus plantarum combined with cold smoking. The experiment used a
randomized block design. DFD beef samples were collected from beef abatoar with
pH value of 6.5 - 6.8. The samples were divided into two groups; fermented by
Lactobacillus plantarum and fermented naturally (control) for five days
fermentation. Fermentation process was combined with cold smoking. The result
showed that the pH value, tenderness and color of both groups were
significantly influenced by the treatment, but the water holding capacity was
not different. DFD beef fermented by Lactobacillus plantarum was more tender,
lighter color and had longer sarcomere than control. Sensory analysis showed
that color and tenderness of DFD beef fermented by Lactobacillus plantarum were
better than control.
