HAM PRODUCTION METHOD THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE CURING RESTING PERIODS

摘要

The invention relates to a ham production method that does not include curing resting periods, comprising the following steps in which: the pieces of muscle are cleaned, a brine composition is injected into the muscle pieces, a series of controlled-depth incisions is made on the muscle pieces that have been injected with the brine composition, the injected muscle pieces are massaged, and the massaged muscle pieces are stuffed into the casing. The muscle pieces are massaged using a random movement involving the circulation and recirculation of the pieces so as to accelerate the diffusion of the brine composition and to perform curing reactions, thereby producing an essentially uniform muscle consistency free of bruises, tears and/or spots.
