Encapsulated Starter Culture Replacement.
The traditional process of making semi-dry sausages uses fermentation to deliver a unique flavor, texture and appearance. Maybe more importantly, this process also provides ambient stability for ready to eat meat.
Fermentation requires a microorganism starter culture, sugar, and plenty of time to lower the meat pH. The starter culture consumes the available sugar over many hours, producing acid as a byproduct. This process can often take 8+ hours.
Imagine what removing your fermentation step and removing the sugar from your meat snack will enable you to do!
