Pâté was made with blood (13%), liver (25%), lamb meat fragments (12%), lard (30%) and water (20%) processed and stored under refrigeration for 90 days, and packed in glass containers and polyamide casing. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of storage time and packaging on the microbiological, physicochemical and sensory characteristics of the product. Lamb pâté showed no microbial growth examined throughout the storage period, although its shelf life was limited due to the decrease in acceptability of sensory attributes, especially overall impression and texture. All physicochemical parameters were affected by the storage time, especially instrumental texture, which indicated emulsion instability during storage due to increased hardness, elasticity and gumminess. Lamb pâté also showed significant differences between packaging (p<0.05) for the parameters of moisture, hardness gumminess and TBARS (p<0.01), however, no differences were found between the two packaging systems for microbial and sensory quality in the storage conditions this study.
