Measuring the water content of poultry carcasses using the drip method.

Mesure de la teneur en eau des carcasses de volailles par la méthode d'égoutttage.

Author(s) : VERDON J., COLIN P.

Summary

This method consists in measuring drip water during rapid thawing of 20 carcasses in a water bath at 42 deg C, with thawing stopped when the internal temperature of the carcasses reaches 4 deg C. The thawing times set down by European regulations seem to be underestimated for carcasses containing offal.
