Research Progress in New Curing Technology of Meat Products

With the development of meat processing technology,curing as a commonly used technology in meat processing,has developed from simple preservation to forming unique flavor,improve color and enhance product quality. With the gradual deepening of research,new technologies(pulsed electric field and shock wave technology)have a broad application prospect in meat processing,which is a research hotspot in the field of meat processing. Therefore,this paper summarized the concepts and principles of traditional curing techniques,such as dry curing,wet curing,injection curing and mixed curing. Then their advantages and disadvantages and the application in industrial production were analyzed. The application status of modern curing technology in meat processing was summarized,including the new technologies(pulsed electric field technology and shock wave technology)in application of curing. And the development trend of curing technology was put forward to promote the industrialized application of modern curing technology in meat products and provide theoretical basis for the development of cured meat industry in China.
