Abstract
The present invention creates a process for treating the surface of fresh meat, in which the meat is treated with a hydrocolloid based on collagen, in particular gelatine, animal glues, collagen, caseins, whey proteins and/or their hydrolysates as well as their mixtures with one another. In particular a weight loss of the meat during storage due to escaping drip is thereby prevented. In the process according to the invention the meat is preferably treated with 0.2 to 1.5 wt % of hydrocolloid, referred to the weight of the meat. It is possible with said process to treat all kinds of meat suitable for human consumption, in particular mammal meat, poultry and fish.
