Abstract :Salmon is usually sold in slices on ice in retail markets. Since ice is in direct contact with fish, it af-fects the sensory characteristics as well as the physicochemical properties. Improving the proper-ties of ice can make positive contributions to fish flavor and consumer preference. In this study, sliced salmons were treated with ice containing one of either basil insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(B);, rosemary insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(R);, laurel insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(L);, oregano insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(O); or fennel insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(F); extracts. Iced salmon without any plant extract was the control insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(C); group. Displaying sliced fish for sale on ice and placing back to cold room at the end of the day is a com-mon practice. Samples were covered with ice, stored at 18±1°C during daytime and taken to the cold room insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(2±1°C); at night to simulate marketing conditions. Adding plant extracts to ice resulted in a remarkable change in fish flavor, and R, F, and L were the most popular treatments among all groups. In particular, rosemary-added ice significantly insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(P<0.05); increased the preference of con-sumption. Panelists emphasized that F samples can be consumed as appetizers. Dominant and pleasant aroma was also stated for L samples. The mesophilic aerobic bacteria count remained below 5 log CFU/g in all samples during 4 days. The total volatile basic nitrogen insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(TVB-N);, thiobar-bituric acid reactive substances insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(TBARS); and pH values of all groups remained within the limits of acceptability. Using plant extract-added-ice provided a suitable quality sale of salmon for 4 days and offered an option to consumers by giving the product different flavors.
