Abstract
Fish swim bladder (FSB) is a type of traditional nutraceutical, but the lack of high-quality drying methods limits its premium market development. In order to obtain optimal-quality dried FSBs from Chinese longsnout catfish, the effects of liquid nitrogen pre-freezing (LNF) and drying on the physical properties and flavor of FSB were evaluated. Four methods were used for FSB drying, including natural air-drying (ND), hot-air-drying (HD), LNF combined with freeze-drying (LN-FD), and LNF combined with HD (LN-HD). Color, collagen content, rehydration ratio, textural properties, and flavor characteristics (by GC-IMS, E-nose, and E-tongue) were measured to clarify the differences among four dried FSBs. The results showed that ND cannot effectively remove moisture from FSB as the final product showed a stronger sourness in taste. HD led to a decrease in the collagen content and the collapse of the fiber structure in FSB. Compared to HD, LN-HD showed a higher collagen content (0.56 g/g) and a different flavor fingerprint. FSB treated by LN-FD had better physical qualities in terms of an attractive color, a high collagen content (0.79 g/g), low shrinkage, a higher rehydration ratio (2.85), and a soft texture, while also possessing richer characteristic flavors. The application of LN-FD may help the optimization of the nutrition level, rehydration ability, mouthfeel, and flavor of dried FSB.
