Products such as chicken heads, paws, meat and bone residue are practically not processed in the food industry, but are sent for fodder purposes. The rational use of secondary raw materials and the development of effective methods for their processing for food purposes is an actual direction. The article presents the results of a study of the physicochemical properties of finely ground minced chicken heads and feet treated with organic acids (ascorbic, citric, acetic) and pepsin.
