Effect of initial freshness on the relationship between emulsifying capacity and protein solubility of frozen stored fish mince was investigated. The emulsifying capacity of proteins was significantly ( P <0.05) affected by the initial freshness. A positive correlation ( P <0.05) between protein solubility and the ability of the soluble proteins to emulsify and stabilise an emulsion was observed. Correlation between salt‐soluble proteins and emulsifying capacity revealed that myofibrillar proteins ( P <0.05) are the main proteins that decide the emulsion properties.
