Study Finds Spice-Rich Marinades Can Reduce Harmful Compounds When Grilling
Date:7/30/2008

Flavorful Marinades Offer Easy Ways to Enjoy Antioxidant Benefits of Spices

and Herbs

HUNT VALLEY, Md., July 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Marinating that steak before tossing it on the grill may offer a whole lot more than just increased flavor. Antioxidant-rich spice and herb marinades may actually decrease the formation of heterocyclic amines (HCAs) -- potentially cancer-causing compounds often produced in meat cooked at high temperatures -- by up to 88 percent, according to a new study in the August issue of the Journal of Food Science(1).

Simulating typical home cooking conditions, researchers from Kansas State University immersed steaks for one hour in marinades prepared from three varieties (Caribbean, Southwest and Herb) of pre-packaged marinade mixes. These steaks, as well as non-marinated steaks and steaks in non-spice marinades, were then grilled at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for five minutes per side. After grilling, researchers compared levels of HCAs in all steaks and found substantial decreases in HCAs in the steaks marinated with antioxidant-rich spices and herbs.

"When the various steaks grilled in the study were compared, it was clear that the spice and herb marinades were responsible for the most dramatic reduction in HCAs," said Hamed Faridi, PhD, Vice President of Research & Development for McCormick & Company, Inc. "These results are attributed to the antioxidant-rich qualities of the spices and herbs."
