    Another Fermented and Dried episode.
    I am always happy to pull these off and the Italian Pepperoni didn't disappoint.
    These one takes some patience and require some controls. If you are able to build or make something to ferment and dry in though, you will open up a whole other world of sausage making.
    The Italian Pepperoni was a great one to start with, the tangy and spicy combination worked well!

    Green mold isn't bad, maybe visually isn't very appealing but it's harmless, just check at these Italian made salami and it will have the green one in fact in homemade making of Salami it will generally go green (Penincilinum Nalgiovese) . The dangerous one is black mold.

    Bought the book, hope you get some credit. Before they had culture you could buy, What did they use? I am trying some slightly sugared yogurt left warm overnight as a Lactobacilous source for an experiment. Love your stuff.

    Hey Duncan, I was told to not screw on the plate too tight or you'll get that metal sludge. You mentioned having it really tight to prevent smearing. Can you elaborate on that more in your next video? Thanks!

    • @duncanhenry
      @duncanhenry  2 роки тому

      Hey Mike, you bet. Basically if there is a small gap even very small between the knifes and the plate connective tissue will build up and you wont get a clean cut. Then the meat coming out looks really mushy, and will give a mushy texture.

    Assuming I have a chamber I can use like a refrigerator with temp control, how do you control humidity? Could they be put in a container or would that prevent water loss? Very informative video, I want to try this

  • @paskilmeh4407
    @paskilmeh4407 2 роки тому +1

    I might have missed it in the video, and I know duration is different for every batch based on a number of variables, but what was your total time in the fermentation chamber to achieve your level of moisture loss?

      I used Mondostart Classic in this one. they are pre packed kits that you can get at most butcher supply stores. I am not sure what the bacteria culture are in those two specifically but that is the brand I have had success with.

      @@mannyp.52 dry curing is not difficult but just tedious and patience requiring. All recipes have three key ingredients for success: cultures, cure#2, and salt. The rest is up to your liking but make sure you taste try samples before drying them. Once you achieve that taste you’re looking for, note your recipe ( percentages and all). Curing and drying environments are also crucial for successful product. Pepperoni like the one we use on pizzas is basically an American sausage with anise extracts and paprika oleoresins. Home made is never the same as store bought (not necessarily a bad thing) you will get a decent tasting sausage as well! Try making other Italians salamis.
