Edible food casing based on proteins, and process for production thereof

An edible food casing, i.e. a casing which can also be consumed, is disclosed which is based on non-heat-coagulating protein which is mixed with a heat-coagulating agent. The non-heat-coagulating protein is preferably collagen and/or a collagen derivative, whereas the heat-coagulating agent is prefe...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An edible food casing, i.e. a casing which can also be consumed, is disclosed which is based on non-heat-coagulating protein which is mixed with a heat-coagulating agent. The non-heat-coagulating protein is preferably collagen and/or a collagen derivative, whereas the heat-coagulating agent is preferably protein from hens' eggs, blood plasma, whey isolate, globin and/or myosin. The casing can be produced as a flat film. It can also be generated immediately in the production of the food product, in particular in sausage production, using a coextrusion ring die around an extruded food. The casing is solidified by treatment with an aqueous salt solution, if appropriate also using transaminase. The food product is preferably a bratwurst.
