US 2002/0054945 A1 · Process for producing dried meat

Abstract

The present invention provides a process for producing dried meat. First, a raw meat is sliced into a sliced meat having a thickness less than 1 cm. Then, the sliced meat is allowed to release salt soluble protein in an amount of 1.5 to 5.5 wt % of the total weight of the sliced meat. Then, the sliced meat is reformed into a reformed meat loaf. Finally, the reformed meat loaf is frozen, sliced, dried, and baked to obtain a reformed dried meat. By means of the present invention, the manual cost can be effectively saved and the chance of pollution can be reduced. Also, the obtained reformed dried meat of the present invention has fibrous properties, and the appearance and eating quality are very close to those of the dried meat product obtained from conventional processes.
