PROCESS FOR PREPARING A MEAT PRODUCT, PRESSING TOUR AND EQUIPMENT FOR CARRYING OUT SUCH PROCESS

摘要

The process comprises the following steps: salting the meat; placing the meat in a mould (5); maturation and drying of the meat during a predetermined period of time; unmoulding the meat; and additional drying of the meat during a predetermined period of time on shelves (9). The process is characterized in that the maturation and drying step is carried out while applying pressure to the meat during a period of time of one month approximately in a pressing tour (8). This process gives a regular shape to the meat block which can be formed from a plurality of meat pieces linked to each other. Furthermore, the meat preparation process can be accelerated.
