| Sumario: | At present, it has been detected that hibiscus flower Hibiscus sabdariffa L, is not being used effectively as a colorant in meat sausages. Therefore, an investigation has been proposed to evaluate whether hibiscus flower colorant can be used as a partial substitute for nitrite in pork sausages. The hibiscus flower is a natural ingredient that offers nutritional and medicinal benefits, as it is rich in antioxidants such as flavonoids, anthocyanins and vitamin C. These antioxidants have a positive impact on health, from reducing the risk of chronic diseases to protecting the cardiovascular system and strengthening the immune system. It was determined that after the analysis of the physicochemical and organoleptic parameters considered to evaluate the partial substitution of nitrite by the Jamaican flower extract, it was demonstrated that this substitution can be carried out without risk to human health according to the Ecuadorian INEN (2023) standards. In addition, the plant materials of Jamaica flower available in Ecuador have very good yields in terms of quantity and quality of colorant produced as a source of colorant for the national meat industry. |
