I use a method used by my great grandfather and passed down. No curing unless Temps are below freezing. Process meat outside only. That was the rule. I cure meat today the same way. My grandfather had no idea about the chemistry involved with curing meats. I educated myself as I wanted to be safe as possible and to refine my art. The agriculture department at University of North Carolina has a great site for curing, smoking and meat preservation. suggest you educate yourself also, its most rewarding.

@Lee-ot2uk 2 года назад
I have just discovered your channel and I think it's excellent! I love the clarity you give to all of your explanations! This video was also very good and should steer all to avoiding the dangers. Erring on the safe side is often the best way. I do appreciate the need to simplify the subject. however, besides oxygen presence and temperature, another factor to weigh into the matter is acidity. If salami, for example, is carefully made with the right amount of salt, (that magic 2%, no less), with a little acidity regulation (e.g. bit of red wine) and hung in controlled conditions (temp 12-18°c & humidity 70% approx) with a bit of air flow also, it's completely safe. pH tests should be below 4.5 but a good indicator of this is the classic white mould that will appear. This is a very traditional and authentic method which I have been using for many years and is widely used throughout Europe. It leads to beautiful salami with no artificial additives. Thank you again though for this and all of your videos! - Subscribed!
@2guysandacooler
@2guysandacooler 2 года назад
Hi Lee. Thank You. If you don't mind me asking, let's say your starting pH is 5.7, how much wine are you adding to drop the ph to below 4.6 and how long does it take. I personally like a tangy sausage but I know for most Italian salami their Ph hovers around the 5.0 mark. Interested in hearing back😀 Out of curiosity are you a fan of river cottage?

Nice to hear from you. 😃 If I'm making up 4kg of total weight of pork and fat, I'll add about 300ml of red wine and, to be honest, if that beautiful white bloom develops, I don't bother reading the pH level at all... It always does! Yeah, I like what they do at River Cottage.! It's hard not to... I only live 70 miles away from them. 😁 They didn't introduce me to curing though, not even nitrate-free curing.

This is great information! My "project" is to recreate the linguica (Portuguese sausage) that we used to have as a kid. With the demise of several ethnic sausage makers and none that exist where I live now, I really want to attempt to make this, but I have no experience with charcuterie and was terrified I would get it wrong. The topic of "curing salts" was one I could never get a clear answer to and now I know why. Some linguica are fresh (refrigerated) sausage and some are cold smoked. Your video made it clear to me that fresh doesn't need curing salts and cold smoked or "cellar aged" does. Please tell me if I got this wrong 😉.
@2guysandacooler
@2guysandacooler 2 года назад
That is correct. All you do is apply both conditions to your sausage and if they are both met, you would want to use curing salt. If only one is met then it would be ok to use salt only.

When used in sausage/salamis you're supposed to dilute it in water and add to the mixture. When doing whole muscles (capicollo/lomo etc) you mix it with the rest of the dry spices and it will dilute in the meat juices during the seasoning period while vacuum packed.

Eric!! These are amazing videos. I started making sausages about 12 years ago when I moved to a part of the world where there are no good Italian sausages available anywhere. I love how complete and well explained your videos are. I have a question, for which I was hoping to find an answer in this video but the topic did not come up. My wife is Italian. Her parents used to make sausage a couple times a year with without curing salts (I'm using their recipe, with only salt, and spices) and would freeze some while fresh but would hang the rest to dry in their cold room (~50-60°F). Your video confirms -what I suspected- that these dried sausages were a high risk sausage. Did I get this right? Do you have a theory on how they never got sick in 50 plus years of drying home made sausages? Just pure luck??
@kenolson3064
@kenolson3064 Год назад
My understanding is the salt used in Italy has naturally occurring nitrates in it. Curing salts were created to standardize the amounts of nitrates, and nitrites, to be added to the regular salt for food safety reasons.

I think the major problem with Nitrates and Nitrites comes from overconsumption of them. It's a knee-jerk reaction to people having poor eating habits. You really can't legislate or control peoples diets without seriously violating their rights so people try to control Nitrates and Nitrites by villifying them. That really is a poor and uneducated way to do things. So thank you for educating us about Charcuterie and the proper use of Curing Salts.

Great work Eric. After my own 10 years of charcuterie making hobby, this is the best explanation I have seen to counter the mythology around nitrates/nitrites I have experienced over the years. A further question for you regarding whole muscle products though. Do you think that wrapping the whole muscle in a casing, whether a collagen sheet or natural casing like a bladder etc. moves it into the anaerobic condition or would you regard that as not requiring curing salts as it remains aerobic?

This video just popped up on my suggestion list. Since I was a boy, black Friday was hog processing day. My grandfather, the neighbor and his two sons and I would process a half dozen hogs. Since becoming an adult, I have wanted to get back to that. I am in the process of building wood fired cobb oven and a smoker, I have a couple of store bought smokers. But the meat recipes have been lost to time. The other gentleman was an award winning Country Ham maker. Lofty goals. I have subbed, belled and hit the like button. Looking forward to learning. God Bless and stay safe.

Wow, really good video! I’ve been trying to understand curing salt and making my own sausage now for days. Watched countless videos and still don’t understand really why. Until now, when I watched this video, now I understand. It is a little bit lengthy, however extremely informative and I feel confident moving forward making my own sausage. Thank you for the video! I subscribed!

Great explanation. I make Biltong in a commercial setting. We use drying cabinets where the temperature is about 87F. Although curing salts aren't necessary, we use salt peter just in case.

Hey Eric, Thanks for another great video. I'm just getting into your channel and learning a ton. I saw a bit about yourself on the 2 Guys and a Cooler website but it'd be interesting to hear more about your story, why you chose to focus on charcuterie and the whole journey up to now in a new video. Thanks again!
