Mechanically separated pork (MSP) was washed using water or 1.5% salt solution, each at pH 5.5 and 6.5 to produce a surimi-like product for further processing. Composition and functionality of the washed product was evaluated and use in processed meat formulations was assessed. Washing treatments reduced fat content to less than 1% but did not reduce calcium content of MSP. The salt solution resulted in removal of heme pigments. Frankfurters manufactured with washed MSP showed little improvement over those with unwashed MSP for texture or water binding; therefore, applications may be limited. However, lipid oxidation of frankfurters containing washed MSP, as measured by TBA, was suppressed during storage.
