The fundamentals of great curing are not complicated, so it’s extraordinary just how many different styles, flavours and textures can be found around the world. We’ve spent 20 years tracking down the very best in a cured meat odyssey that has seen us wander beneath holm oak trees in the Spanish dehesa, climb mountains in Italy and get hopelessly lost in the Scottish Highlands. The meaty treasures we’ve brought back range from hams and sausages to salamis and coppas, each with their own story to tell and unique flavours that are specific to a particular place. 1. An ancient art 4. The practice of preserving meat by drying, salting or smoking stretches back thousands of years and while the process has evolved, there has been a renaissance in traditional skills and techniques in recent years.

  • CHAPTER-2 Charcutierie Introduction: Charcuterie (From Either the French Chair Cuite = Cooked Meat, Or the French Cuiseur De
    CHAPTER-2 Charcutierie Introduction: Charcuterie (from either the French chair cuite = cooked meat, or the French cuiseur de chair = cook of meat) is the branch of cooking devoted to prepared meat products such as sausage primarily from pork. The practice goes back to ancient times and can involve the chemical preservation of meats; it is also a means of using up various meat scraps. Hams, for instance, whether smoked, air-cured, salted, or treated by chemical means, are examples of charcuterie. The French word for a person who prepares charcuterie is charcutier , and that is generally translated into English as "pork butcher." This has led to the mistaken belief that charcuterie can only involve pork. The word refers to the products, particularly (but not limited to) pork specialties such as pâtés, roulades, galantines, crépinettes, etc., which are made and sold in a delicatessen-style shop, also called a charcuterie." SAUSAGE A simple definition of sausage would be ‘the coarse or finely comminuted (Comminuted means diced, ground, chopped, emulsified or otherwise reduced to minute particles by mechanical means) meat product prepared from one or more kind of meat or meat by-products, containing various amounts of water, usually seasoned and frequently cured .’ A sausage is a food usually made from ground meat , often pork , beef or veal , along with salt, spices and other flavouring and preserving agents filed into a casing traditionally made from intestine , but sometimes synthetic. Sausage making is a traditional food preservation technique. Sausages may be preserved by curing , drying (often in association with fermentation or culturing, which can contribute to preservation), smoking or freezing.

  • The Haggis Used to Be Made from Sheep’S Stomach, but That Isn’T So Common Nowadays
    Inside Out Haggis WORKSHEET A ....................................................................................................................................................... 1 In Scotland, Burns Night celebrations take place in many places on or near 25th January, which is the anniversary of the birth of the country’s most famous poet, Robert Burns (1759-96). The celebrations usually include readings from the great man’s poems, and traditional Scottish music. Food and drink are also important on Burns Night: a lot of whisky is drunk, and a traditional but rather unusual dish called haggis is eaten. Even the most patriotic Scot would probably admit that haggis doesn’t sound very tasty to most people. It looks like a very fat sausage, with the filling consisting of pieces of sheep’s heart, liver and lungs mixed with onion, oats and spices. The skin of the haggis used to be made from sheep’s stomach, but that isn’t so common nowadays. The haggis is boiled in water for about an hour, then eaten with ‘neeps and tatties’, which means turnips and potatoes in the dialect that used to be spoken by many people in Scotland. ....................................................................................................................................................... 2 Haggis can be found in supermarkets in Scotland and other parts of Britain, and some fast-food restaurants in Scotland offer fried haggis with chips, perhaps not the healthiest meal in world, but certainly very filling. A few of the places that sell haggis also offer a meat-free version for vegetarians. Believe it or not, ‘haggis hurling’ is an occasional Scottish sporting event which consists of throwing a haggis as far as possible. The world record distance for throwing a 0.7kg haggis is almost 60 metres, achieved by a Scotsman in 1984.
