METHOD FOR PREPARING MINCE FOR SAUSAGE PRODUCTS AND SEMI-FINISHED PRODUCTS Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC A23L13/60 A23J3/18 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: method for preparing mince for sausage products comprises preparing meat raw materials, salting, preparing mince in a cutter, with introducing at the first stage of the mince preparation a protein component hydrated in cold water with simultaneously crushing, a colouring and flavour additives, stuffing a shell with the mince, and heat treatment. As the protein component, hydrated gluten from cereal grains is used, which is cooled at a depth of not more than 3 cm to a temperature of 0-8°C, or frosted or frozen at a depth of not more than 3 cm to a temperature of 0-(-18)°C, loaded into a cutter and ground to the particle size no more than 1 mm, a colouring is added in an amount of 5-70% of the manufacturer's recommended rate of the colouring application per 100 kg of raw materials and in the same amount of cold-ice water, mixed until the gluten temperature reaches 30±5°C, and cooled at a depth of not more than 3 cm to a temperature of 0-8°C. For the production of cooked sausages, chilled gluten in an amount of 10-60% of the total amount of meat raw material is added to the cutter with the meat raw material and mixed to the homogeneous condition, followed by adding cold-ice water, flavour additives and grinding the mince to the temperature of 12-16°C; if necessary, the mince is directed to fine grinding machines. For the production of cooked smoked, semi-smoked sausages and chopped semi-finished products, a meat raw material in an amount of not more than 40% of the total amount of gluten is added to the cutter with frosted or frozen gluten, mixed to the homogeneous condition, followed by adding flavour additives and grinding the mince to a temperature of no higher than 5°C.

EFFECT: improving the organoleptic parameters of finished products and functional and technological properties of mince, expanding the range of sausage products and more rational use of raw materials while reducing production costs.
