Abstract：The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of three reheating methods: microwave, steaming, and boiling, on the quality and flavor of baked scallops. The results showed that the hardness (2 391.87 g), elasticity (0.829 mm) and cooking loss rate (44.64%) of steamed samples were significantly higher than those of the other two reheated samples (P < 0.05). Boiling yielded higher sensory scores for elasticity, juiciness and color, as well as significantly higher yellowness value than did the other reheating methods (P < 0.05). Furthermore, water distribution in boiled samples was more uniform, which facilitated the maintenance of both bound and free water. The three reheating methods had a substantial impact on the flavor profiles of baked scallops. Microwave reheating produced higher concentrations of aldehydes, such as octanal (44.45 μg/kg), pentanal (35.39 μg/kg) and isovaleraldehyde (15.71 μg/kg), contributing to fruity and almond-like aromas. Boiling resulted in elevated levels of ethyl acetate (27.91 μg/kg), contributing to sweet aroma, while steaming generated higher concentrations of octadecanal (60.64 μg/kg) and ocimene (29.73 μg/kg), responsible for spicy and herbal aromas. In summary, boiling exhibited superior performance in retaining moisture, while microwave reheating produced fruity and nutty aromas, and steaming generated herbal flavor notes.
