Method and apparatus for food marinating

摘要

A method and apparatus provides infusing marinating liquids into foods in a relatively short period of time to enhance the flavor of said foods. The method uses air pressure above atmospheric to force marinating liquid into the foods. The foods are submerged in the marinade and the air pressure forces the marinade into the submerged foods. Air pressure and time of pressurization is electronically controlled and can be based upon the weight of the food to be marinated. The apparatus includes a sealed vessel for holding the food and marinate and electronic controls that set and manage a pump to control the pressure and duration of pressurization to insure adequate penetration of the marinating liquid into the food.
