摘要:
An apparatus and method for the fixing of pieces of meat under pressure during a smoking or heating process, comprising a number of perforated elements arranged as layers above one another, and where holding elements are mutually connected by links which permit mutual displacement to a maximum distance between the layers. On three sides between adjacent layers, the holding elements are provided with fixed, perforated walls, and from at least one holding element, preferably more, the walls extend from two opposing sides from the bottom of the holding element(s) down towards the underlying holding element, and from the upper side from the same holding element(s) the walls extend towards the overlying holding element. There is hereby created a chamber for the insertion of each individual piece of meat, which due to the perforations in the chamber walls not only permits an optimum smoking of the pieces of meat during the smoking process, but also ensures a well-demarcated insertion space for the meat. Furthermore, the system makes it possible for the insertion of the pieces of meat to be carried out mechanically.

A processed meat product such as bacon and a process for treating meat cuts for use in the production of a processed meat product. Particulate meat material is mixed with a pickle solution to form a mixture. The pickle solution and meat material mixture is fed through a reduction mill to form a suspension. The temperature of the suspension is raised during milling to approximately 45.degree. F. or higher. Subsequent to milling the temperature of the suspension is decreased to approximately 32.degree. F. or lower. The cooled suspension is then injected into a meat cut. The injected meat cut is then thermally treated to form a bacon or bacon-like product having an increase in weight of 0% to 49% above the weight of the meat cut prior to injection.

Apparatuses are disclosed and claimed for coating egg-yolks, natural or artificial, preferably in the form of disks. The apparatuses comprise a vessel for containing a first coating liquid, in which the egg yolk disks are dispensed. A preferably continuous belt is synchronized with the dispenser so that the back part of the belt is immersed in the liquid when the egg-yolk is being dispensed, while it rises during the period of time that the dispenser is getting ready to dispense a new egg-yolk, thus transferring the yolk out of the liquid. The belt has preferably perforations in its middle portion and it is pivoted in the vicinity of the front end of the vessel. The apparatuses of the present invention are useful for coating articles other than egg-yolk disks.

A process and apparatus for preparing diced or sliced pepperoni includes the steps of preparing the pepperoni meat mixture by grinding and mixing to specification. The blended sausage is extruded into sheet form for fermentation and cooking, following which the cooled meat mixture is chilled to 35.degree. F. or lower and sliced or sliced and diced. The product is thereafter conveyed to a spiral dryer where it is exposed to relatively warm (about 50.degree. F. to 120.degree. F.) air at an initial relative humidity of 30% or less under turbulent air flow. The dried pepperoni is conveyed to a chiller or freezer. The pepperoni has desirable flow characteristics when compared to product made using known pepperoni manufacturing processes.
摘要:
A method of manufacturing a protein-containing food product by means of heat-treating a protein and water-containing carrier material suitable for pumping in a turboreactor which has a cylindrical reaction chamber with a rotor equipped with blades in order to centrifuge the carrier material in the form of a dynamic, turbulent layer against an inner wall of said reaction chamber, heat-treating, drying to AW less than 0.6 and granulating the carrier material, advancing the carrier material in the direction of an outlet from the turboreactor, and forming individual food products from the carrier material; a protein-containing food product made by press molding of a carrier material that has been granulated and dried to an AW value of less than 0.6 and that is microbiologically stable, the carrier material being free of gelantized starch.

A process is disclosed for producing thermoplastic starch based on renewable raw materials and, if required, for further processing it into a granulate. A low viscosity starch is modified under a low shearing stress during the extrusion process and leaves the extruder with an increased viscosity in the form of a strip, threads or in other geometrical shapes. The advantages of the invention mainly lie in the improved quality of the starch products, the preservation of the mechanical parts of the extruder installation and the increase of the nominal output of the extruder.
