| Summary: | The objective of this study was to identify the key aroma compounds of Dongpo pork dish (DPD) and to explore the changes in key aroma compounds of DPD during the storage period. Quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA) combined with two-dimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC×GC-MS) was employed to investigate the aroma characteristics and the volatile profiles of DPD. Further, a sensomic approach was used to decipher its key aroma compounds. The typical flavors identified in DPD were described as meat, grease, garlic, wine, soy sauce, and spice flavors by the QDA. The key aroma compounds contributing to the flavor of DPD include 2-heptanol, 1-octen-3-ol, hexanal, (E)-2-octenal, 3-methylthiopropanal, decanal, ethyl caproate, 2,5-dimethylpyrazine, and dimethyl trisulfide. In addition, the changes of key aroma compounds of DPD at different storage temperatures (25 °C, 4 °C) were explored, and the results demonstrated that the key aroma compounds showed an overall trend of attenuation with the increase in time. The content of ethyl caproate decayed by more than 60%. Compared with the storage temperature of 25 °C, DPD storage at 4 °C was more effective in slowing down the change of key aroma compounds. These results can provide theoretical evidence for the flavor modulation and the industrial production of DPD. |
