Marinade Preparation Process
Marinade Preparation Process
ELABORATION PROCESS
The preparation of marinades consists of two stages, which are:
1. Pre-marinated
2. Marinated
PRE - MARINATED
It consists of subjecting the previously washed fillets to a treatment of 15
to 20 days at refrigeration temperature (2o C-6°C), in a 10% salt and
vinegar solution (4% acetic acid).
The ratio of steak to vinegar is 1:2. In this stage, the basic characteristics
of the product are developed in terms of texture and flavor due to the
action of acetic acid and salt that favor lactic fermentation. This results in
the muscle tissue of the fillet becoming firmer and more textured and the
remaining bones softening.
MARINATED
The fillets from the pre-marinated are cut and placed in glass containers
rolled on themselves or on vegetables, covered with flavored vinegar, the
jar is sealed well and stored at refrigeration temperature (2°C - 6°C ) until
consumption, and can last up to 6 months in sealed containers.
