Dosage & Application - Meat

Sternzym PT 100 FB - Dosage & Application - Meat

 

Dosage of Sternzym PT 100 FB is 700 – 1,000 g per 100 kg of raw material.
Salt, phosphate and spices should be scaled according recipe and taste.
The typical dosage of up to 3% sodium chloride and/or 0.3% phosphate improves binding in of the meat pieces.
Add phosphate, salt, spices etc to meat pieces and mix thoroughly until all surfaces are evenly covered.

Add Sternzym PT 100 FB and ice cold water in a ratio of 1g enzyme compound per 4g water to the tumbler 10 minutes before the end of the whole tumbling process.

Fill everything into artificial casing or molds of desired form.

Keep the casings at least four to six hours (depends on dosage and temperature) refrigerated at about 5°C.

The optimal dosage depends greatly on process conditions and the quality of the starchy material and may therefore deviate from the suggested dosage. Finding the optimal dosage for each individual process is a matter for the customer.
