High Pressure Processing of Food

Part of the book series: Food Engineering Series ((FSES))

Abstract

This chapter reviews the current scientific knowledge and future outlook of high pressure processing of egg products. Overall product quality improvement through modification of ingredients, formulation, processing, and packaging has been highlighted. Factors influencing microbial safety of the egg products are highlighted. Consumer acceptance of pressure-treated precooked egg-based products is presented.
