Abstract
A premoisturized food casing coated with alkali liquid smoke which does not cause color streaking on encased food product and does not cause smoke buildup on food stuffing equipment. Nevertheless, the premoisturized food casing of the invention still provides the same coloring power and flavor to encased food product, as traditional alkali smoke coated premoisturized food casings. The premoisturized tubular cellulose film food casing of the invention has a moisture content of greater than 24 weight percent and a coating of a smoke solution containing smoke tars and having a solution pH of at least 12 and preferably above about 12.5. The moisture content is preferably from 25 to 40 weight percent and most preferably from 25 to 30 weight percent.
