Abstract

The evolution of free amino acids during the ripening of a typical Spanish dry fermented sausage (chorizo) elaborated by traditional and industrial processes in the province of León has been studied. Most free amino acids showed a variable progress with appreciable fluctuations. Glutamine, Taurine and Asparagine were the only compounds that suffered an important decrease during ripening.
