OBJECTIVE: This study investigates the technological and sensory profile of boneless dry-cured ham added with different contents of lactulose as a prebiotic ingredient. METHODS: In addition to the control samples (without the addition of lactulose), three treatments were formulated to contain 2, 4 or 6% lactulose. Technological (lactulose content, CIE color and texture profile analysis) and sensory (acceptance and check-all-that-applies tests) analyses were performed on the final product. RESULTS: The lactulose content in the finished product (1.86±0.23%, 3.16±0.18% and 2.51±1.35%) was lower than the lactulose originally added (2, 4 and 6% respectively). The addition of 4% and 6% lactulose made (P < 0.05) the products darker (lower L*) and redder (lower h) with higher hardness and chewiness values, when compared to control samples. The additions of 2% and 4% lactulose reduce the appearance acceptability of the products, but overall the treatments were well accepted. CONCLUSION: The use of up to 4% lactulose as a prebiotic in the production of boneless dry-cured hams provides an alternative to improving its nutritional value with little alteration in the technological characteristics and still meeting the sensory characteristics desired by consumers.
