Problems solved by technology

A problem with the method of GB-A-2156727 is that by forming in situ a cohesive skin on the surface of the product by the application of acid or heat, the adjacent turns of the product tend to stick together where they touch to form a generally cylindrical product having a ribbed appearance.
Areas of the surface that are inadvertently missed w

Abstract

The present invention provides a food product comprising one or more plastic food substrates formed into a helical configuration and coated with a fluid barrier agent to prevent reannealing of adjacent turns of the product. The fluid barrier agent may be an edible vegetable oil such, for example, as hydrogenated vegetable oil, Soya oil, rape oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, peanut oil or a mixture of such oils. The product may define a single helix or a multiple helix, e.g. a double or triple helix. The invention also provides a method and apparatus for making such a helical food product.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to an helical food product, particularly an helical skinless sausage-like product. The present invention also provides a method and apparatus for extruding plastic food substrates, particularly meat substrates, to form food products of helical configuration.BACKGROUND TO THE INVENTION[0002] GB-A-2156727 (Pemberton Sintermatic SA) discloses a method for the production of helical protein products in which a proteinaceous product, such as meat or a meat-like product is injected into a cylindrical mould through a nozzle. As extrusion proceeds, the nozzle is withdrawn from the mould to form said helical product. Optionally the mould and nozzle may be rotated relative to one another, but according to GB-A-2156727 this is not necessary provided the rates of extrusion and nozzle withdrawal are correctly adjusted. The wall of the mould is porous and as the product is formed in the nozzle, an acid is applied through the wall onto the outer surfaces of the ...
