摘要:
A method of processing meat characterized in that the meat is introduced into a mobile cooking vessel, the vessel is sealed and adjusted to super-atmospheric pressure, a stock liquor is passed through a heat exchanger to raise its temperature to at least 60°C and circulated through the vessel and heat exchanger for a period of time sufficient to heat up and cook the meat, substantially immediately after which the circulating stock liquor is cooled by the same heat exchanger to a temperature suitable for cooling the meat to 15°C or below within a maximum time of 45 minutes.
摘要:
A method for controlling a cooking process of food stuff (20) comprising the steps of: a) detecting at least one physical property, in particular an electrical impedance (Z) or at least one component thereof and/or a temperature (T), at at least one check point or at a plurality of check points (22) in a, preferably inner, region of the food stuff (20), b) deriving from said at least one detected physical property, in particular impedance or component thereof and/or temperature, food type information about the type of food of the food stuff (20) and/or food age information about the age of the food stuff (20), c) deriving from said at least one detected physical property, in particular impedance or component thereof and/or temperature, a bacterial information (e.g. F or F 0 ) about the bacterial concentration in the food stuff (20) or about a reduction in the bacterial concentration in the food stuff (20), d) using the food type information of the food stuff (20) and/or the food age information of the food stuff (20) in said step of deriving the bacterial information (e.g. F or F 0 ), e) providing said bacterial information (e.g. F or F 0 ) to a user interface and/or to an information output unit and/or to a control unit for adapting the cooking time and/or cooking temperature dependent on this bacterial information.

Methods and apparatuses are presented for the steam pasteurization of the meat to heat the surface of the meat and reduce surface contamination. One example of an apparatus for reducing surface contamination of meat includes a dewatering region, a steam region, a coolant region, and a controller. The dewatering region includes at least one dewatering element for directing a dewatering fluid at a piece of meat to remove surface water from the meat. The steam region includes at least one steam valve for directing steam at the piece of meat to heat the surface of the meat. The coolant region has at least one coolant element for directing a coolant fluid at the piece of meat to cool the meat. The controller is configured and arranged to control a conveyor to move the piece of meat from the dewatering region to the steam region, to stop the piece of meat in the steam region while steam is directed at the piece of meat, and to move the meat from the steam region to the coolant region.

An apparatus (2) and method of producing a meat product including a piece of meat which is heat treated to have no outer skin about its surface is disclosed. The meat is placed inside of an air-tight chamber (10) and steam generated from a source of water (12) is introduced into the cooking chamber (10). The steam and pressure within the chamber (10) are regulated so as to create an atmospheric humidity of 100% within the chamber, so any water present within the meat is prevented from evaporating into the atmosphere of the chamber (10). The pressure may be reduced so as to produce a low temperature steam from 65,6 °C (150 °F) to 82,2 °C (180 °F) to cook the meat product. Additionally, a flavored ingredient, such as liquid smoke, may be added to the water (12) to flavor the meat product and the pressure can be further reduced so that a thin skin layer can be formed on the meat product surface.

An Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) marker is adapted for direct application to optically recorded media such as compact disks, CD-ROM's, laser disks, digital video disks, and the like. The marker includes a support sheet and one or more marker elements which are positioned such that the mass distribution of the marker is symmetrically disposed about the center of the marker. This ensures that when the marker is properly positioned on the optically recorded media, the marker does not adversely affect the mechanical balance of the media.

A method is disclosed for preparing a surface-pasteurized, low-fat, formed meat product. The method comprises removing surface fat, bones, and gristle, and cutting the meat into pieces. The pieces are mechanically tenderized and then mixed with water, salt, and phosphate. The mixture is massaged at 0° to 15 °C so that fat is conducted out of the meat and deposited on the wall of the apparatus, and protein is exuded to form a sticky surface on the pieces of meat. The massaged meat is then formed into a selected shape and frozen. The shaped meat is subjected to portion control either before or after freezing. The portions are then partially thawed, and the partially thawed portions are surface-pasteurized at ultra-high temperature (UHT), e.g. 900-1200 °C, for a time sufficient to denature proteins, without burning, to a depth of up to about 2 mm. Grill markings are then placed on the meat. After UHT treatment the meat is refrozen, packaged in a modified atmosphere containing carbon dioxide and nitrogen gas, and stored frozen.
