Abstract:
Method for manufacturing a packed product, comprising the steps of: a) bringing a product into a superheated steam atmosphere with an O 2 content of maximum 10 vol.-%, a pressure of between 950 mbar and 1100 mbar and a temperature of minimmn 100°C, b) making available a packing container in the steam atmosphere and filling the packing container with a predetermined quantity of the product, wherein a residual volume of the packing container not filled with product is filled with the steam atmosphere, c) replacing at least 50% of the residual volume of steam atmosphere in the packing container by a sterile inert gas, d) sealing the packing container, and e) cooling the packing container and the product contained therein to a temperature of between 10°C and 25°C.
Abstract:
Method of producing a packed food product, comprising: cooking a food product at a cooking temperature of at least 100°C; introducing the cooked food product into an atmosphere of superheated steam, the atmosphere of superheated steam containing less than 3% of oxygen and having a temperature of at least 120°C; drying the food product to an a w -value in the range from 0,70 to 0,92; in the superheated steam atmosphere, packaging the food product in a packaging container, feeding a protective gas into the packaging container and hermetically sealing the packaging container, and food product packed in a packaging impermeable to O 2 , obtainable by a method of any of the preceding claims, wherein the food product has an a w -value in the range from 0,70 to 0,92 and the packaging contains a protective gas.
