Ahrensburg, April 2016 — At this year's IFFA, the leading international trade fair for meat processing, Hydrosol, a specialist in stabilisation for meat and sausage products, presented many new product ideas. The focus was on stabilising systems for the simple and economical manufacture of meat products, as well as vegetarian and vegan alternatives. Interested visitors discussed individual solutions with Hydrosol at Booth D70 in Hall 4.
Cost-optimised poultry products, cooked ham and sausages
As an expert on international poultry applications, Hydrosol offers a wide range of stabilising systems for poultry products like cold cuts, sausages, nuggets and similar items. This includes functional systems that reduce the production cost of poultry sausages. Their ingredient combinations make possible recipes that give high quality final products with reduced meat content. Hydrosol also develops individual solutions to customer order.
In addition, the company offers stabilising systems for the special requirements of halal products.
Another focus is the manufacture of cooked ham specialities, ranging from cost-optimised to premium quality recipes. These stabilising systems improve water binding, shaping and sliceability. Even at higher yields, the final products have minimalsyneresis and an appetising appearance.
Hydrosol's functional systems for the cost-optimised production of wieners and hot dogs are likewise centred on economy.
They let manufacturers adjust protein, fat and water phase to suit, resulting in firm sausages that have a stable structure even after heating, with individual meat, fast and water content.
All-in compounds for meatless alternatives
To meet the growing demand for vegetarian and vegan products, Hydrosol has developed the new HydroTOP VEG all-in compound with a mild basic seasoning. This remarkable integrated compound can be used to make many different meatless products, from vegetarian sausages to Bavarian style meat loaf to a meatless ground product that can be used in all sorts of applications. For large-scale users like cafeterias and caterers, semi-finished ground products in piece or pre-ground form provide the basis for many different foods. Industrial manufactur¬ers can use them to make a wide range of vegetarian retail items, such as vegetar¬ian sauce bolognaise. The ground products feature the familiar pleasing bite and an authentic mouth feel, have a balanced flavour profile and appetising colour, and are easy to make.
Hydrosol also provides all-in vegan solutions for cold cuts. They contain all the compo-nents of the overall formulation, including a mild basic seasoning that can be enhanced as desired. The texture of
the resulting meatless cold cuts is absolutely comparable with bologna or mortadella, and allows for problem-free slicing with conventional slicers
