Product Overview

Cured meat making has never been so easy!

This traditional collagen pre-cut sheet is resistant and flexible. Ideal for wrapping cured meats like capocollo, pancetta, prosciutto and others. It is very easy and efficient to use. This is a great type of casing for beginners as it requires no prep work, is easy to handle, is fairly straight forward with its application and can be easily stored without needing to be refrigerated.

Curing Wraps are used to age raw meat products by encasing your seasoned meat and giving it a protective layer during the drying and curing process. They dry evenly together with the filling. The wrap sheets act as a porous membrane which will allow the moisture to be released from the meat, assisting with the drying process; at the same time aiding in creating a secure barrier that can help to reduce any potential contaminants coming into contact with your raw produce as it hangs and cures.

Manufacturer's instructions for use

Before wrapping, lay the sheet out flat on a smooth, sterilized surface. Splash a few drops of water evenly around the sheet making it soft and pliable. Then wrap your meat accordingly.
TIP: During the smoking process the maximum temperature should not exceed 40 ° C.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid direct sun exposure and extremely humid places. Once the packet is opened, store the casing in a sealed cardboard box.

These casings are ideal for both fresh and smoked sausage production.

The benefits of natural casings extend beyond the consumers' enjoyment of the sausage. For instance, the high elasticity and tensile strength of natural casings allow for optimum filling yields during sausage production, and contribute to more attractive, wrinkle-free link ends. Natural casings are endothermic, that is they draw heat away from the sausage thereby providing enhanced shelf life and a longer-lasting attractive appearance.

• You will get more out of skins if fill them without cutting them
• All fresh casings are cleaned and salted when packed
• Needs to be stored in fridge NOT FREEZER
• Wash salt off the inside and outside of casing before using
• 1-2 minutes in lukewarm water with lemon, NO VINEGAR as the acidity will break them down

Will last up to two years if kept correctly in salt and refrigerated.

*You must ALWAYS pair the type of metal in regards to plates and knives. If you have all carbon knives, plates and worm pins, and only want to buy an extra plate then it has to be carbon also. Although, carbon plates can wear over time and eventually shed small carbon particles onto your meats. However, if you want to upgrade to stainless steel plates and currently have carbon accessories, then you MUST also buy a stainless-steel knife and worm pin to complete the stainless-steel set. The consequence of having carbon and stainless-steel accessories working together, is that the stainless steel will wear away the carbon and shed particles of the carbon as the pieces turn.*
