<p>An apparatus and method are provided for processing batter materials, such as food batter, including sausage batter for wieners and the like, without incorporating the use of any casing for the batter. An elongated ribbon or flow (22) of proteinaceous batter material is extruded or otherwise formed and treated to have a proteinaceous skin (38) made by congealing surface batter materials with a treating arrangement. This flow is then severed into a plurality of blanks (25), followed by forming unfinished ends of blanks (25) into shaped links (88). The shaped links (88) are then cooked and typically packaged as desired to provide a finished sausage product. <IMAGE></p> |
