BACKGROUND: The effect of different cooking methods (boiling, vacuum and steamed cooking) on the volatile compound content and sensory properties of sea lettuce (Ulva rigida) seaweed was assessed. Sea lettuce was cooked at three different temperaturesv(50, 70 and 100 °C) for three different lengths of time (5, 10 and 15 min). Various statistical techniques were employed in order to establish any possible changes. RESULTS: The different cooking methods modified significantly both the volatile compound content and the sensory properties of sea lettuce seaweed. In general, the cooked samples had lower concentrations of several volatile compounds than the control sample, mainly aldehydes. Regarding sensory analysis, the cooked samples exhibited lower values for various aroma descriptors such as seaside and seaweed, whereas descriptor scores such as cooked fish, salty dry fish and crustacean increased. No clear statistical differences were found between different cooking lengths of time and temperature levels with regard to both volatile compounds and sensory properties. CONCLUSIONS: In the cooking of sea lettuce seaweeds, the main sensory changes and modifications in their volatile content took place during the first minutes of cooking and at medium cooking temperatures.
