1321000 Producing bacon ARMOUR & CO 20 Sept 1971 [6 Oct 1970] 43693/71 Headings A2D and A2E To reduce the tendency of bacon slices to adhere together, lecithin dispersed in an aqueous medium is introduced into the raw pork belly. The lecithin may be derived from a vegetable source, e.g. soybeans or cottonseed, or an animal source, and may be pre-treated with boiling water to form a hydrate to render it readily dispersible in water. The aqueous medium, which is injected into the belly, may be a pickle solution comprising sodium nitrite, sodium erythorbate, sodium chloride, brown sugar and water, and may also include a non-cyclic, polyphosphated salt of sodium or potassium, e.g. sodium tripolyphosphate, sodium hexametaphosphate, tetrasodium pyrophosphate, tetrapotassium pyrophosphate or potassium tripolyphosphate, or a mixture of sodium tripolyphosphate and hexametaphosphate. After the introduction of the pickle solution the belly may be heattreated and smoked and then chilled and moulded before being sliced and packed. |
