Extended information guide to eating tender meat powder:
The correct use of tender meat powder requires mastering the following five keys:
1, the dosage of tender meat powder should be 0.5% ~1%of the weight of raw materials.
2. When using tender meat powder, it should be dissolved in appropriate amount of water before being put into raw materials, and it must not be directly sprinkled into raw materials, because it is not easy to mix evenly.
3. The activity of papain in tender meat powder is related to temperature, and the optimum temperature is about 60℃. Therefore, only at this temperature can the tenderizing effect be the most obvious and the fastest. If the temperature exceeds 90℃, the protease will lose its activity.
4. Although it takes some time for the tender meat powder to act on the raw materials, it is usually allowed to stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. If the time is too long, it may cause the raw materials to lose elasticity; If the time is too short, the tenderizing effect will not be achieved.
5. The PH value of tender meat powder for raw materials is about 7 ~ 7.5, but it is difficult for tender meat powder to play its role in the environment of excessive acid or alkali, so we should consider whether raw materials or seasonings contain acid or alkali before using tender meat powder.
It is worth noting that as a food additive, tender meat powder contains a certain amount of nitrite, which should not be eaten in excess. Especially in some unqualified "three noes" products, the nitrite content often exceeds the standard, which will cause poisoning if eaten frequently. The staff of the supervision department of the Health Supervision Institute said that catering units must be produced by regular manufacturers and put on record when purchasing tender meat powder. In addition, if you feel that meat tastes tender and not like meat, it may be over-added, and it is best not to eat it.
