Start year 2010 End year 2011 Funding (€) € 65,000 Website https://www.fhf.no/prosjekter/prosjektbasen/900511/ Summary "In this project, it will be investigated whether cod with and without head, which have been transported and stored in an ice-water mixture or frozen in boxes/vessels, give rise to saltfish/rockfish of different quality.
Based on raw material that has been stored with or without the head, a likely difference in quality is different color of the product - salt/cutfish - in the neck area. Color measurement is therefore one of the parameters that must be recorded in the documentation of quality.
In addition to recording the color in the neck and back/fillet, yield and quality must be measured. Microbiological analyzes of some of the raw material samples are also carried out.
The raw material should be as similar as possible and preferably line, cheat or spinning wadfish. The industry also asks for yarn.
Performance target:
Investigating the extent to which decapitation of whitefish (cod) contributes to differences in the quality of salted and rockfish.
Sub-goals:
1. Investigate the connection between head covering and colour; development of yellow color on salt and rockfish.
2. Investigate whether there is a connection between decapitation and the quality of finished saltfish and cutfish.
3. Investigate whether there is a connection between decapitation of raw material and yield on salt and rock fish."
