Summary

A trial was done on how the use of liquid nitrogen or carbon dioxide in boiled-ham tumbling would affect yield, slice quality, juicing-out losses, colour and tumbling time. By introducing either of the two cryogenic gases into the interior of the tumbling drum, the desired meat core temperatures of -2, 0 or 2 deg C, respectively, could be kept constant over the entire tumbling process. When compared to the results of the control experiments, this upholding of temperature constancy always resulted in higher yields.
