Several extraction procedures were tested to lighten the color and improve textural characteristics of mechanically deboned turkey meat. An extensive extraction of heme pigments was achieved when 0.04M phosphate buffer with a pH of 8.0 was used. Lightness of MDTM increased by 51. I%, redness decreased by 64.0%, and yellowness increased by 26.0% over untreated raw MDTM when measured objectively. Sensory analyses of cooked patties made from extracted MDTM from necks and ground turkey breast indicated that breast meat products could be formulated with 5–20% washed MDTM without significantly affecting overall sensory quality.
