Analysis of the texture profile of the soybean meat analogue for alternative nutrition

The article presents the data of the analysis of the texture profile of an analogue of semi-finished meat from soy products for alternative nutrition. Texture is a sensory indicator that can be measured on a texture analyzer using an instrumental method such as texture profile analysis (TPA), through which elasticity, chewiness, hardness, cohesion, stickiness were evaluated. In the course of the study, the task was to select a variant of the recipe for an analogue of a semi-finished meat product from soy minced meat with the introduction of mashed pumpkin and oat flakes in crushed form in different dosages. A point-based sensory assessment of the simulated samples was performed, it was found that the introduction of oat flakes into the mince system at a dosage of 10% has a beneficial effect on the strength characteristics of the semi-finished product. The rheological behavior of the products under development was studied with additional grinding of soy mince and the texture profile of an analogue of a semi-finished meat product from soy products with oat flakes and pumpkin was refined. © 2021 Author(s)

Prospects for the development of small hotels in modern conditions

The paper is dedicated to justifying the prospects for the development of small hotels in modern conditions. It has been found that the Russian Federation demonstrates an example of the rapid development of small hotel business. In some of the country’s regions, progressive trends can be observed, which are associated with an increase in the capacity of the hotel industry related to the attraction of small-sized accommodation facilities to this area. It has been revealed that Saint Petersburg is the undisputed leader in promoting small hotel business. It has been determined that Moscow is another significant representative of the developing small hotel market. Despite an insignificant share of small hotels in the total amount, it is small hotels in Moscow that make up the majority of the newly introduced key count. However, this cannot physically significantly affect the ratio of rooms per thousand capita, which is too low in Moscow. © 2019, ASERS Publishing House. All rights reserved
