Preparation of formed and dried fish meat for processing

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE: To prevent cracking of a fish meat block during the smoking and drying process, and to facilitate the fixing of the dried fish meat block to the shaving machine for the preparation of the shavings of dried fish meat, by forming the fish meat block having a central hole which acts a means for releasing the strain. CONSTITUTION: Waste meat of bonito, tuna, etc. is charged in a cylindrical molding frame 1 havin a center core 2, covered with a lid 3, and boiled. The boiled fish meat is removed from the frame 1 and smoked and dried. The shape of the dried fish meat (a) thus prepared is a roll having a central hole (b), which reduces the generation of the thermal strain in the dried fish meat (a). Furthermore, shavings of dried fish meat can be prepared easily, by inserting a rotary axis of a shaving machine in the hole (b), and pressing the stationary edge to the rotating dried fish meat (a).
