Title: Finocchiona Salami
Post by: carnie1 on February 28, 2010, 06:36:01 PM
This is my first stab at this type of salami as in the recipe from here http://lpoli.50webs.com/index_files/Salami%20finocchiona.pdf (http://lpoli.50webs.com/index_files/Salami%20finocchiona.pdf) 
Since I always have trouble with captions I'll tell you the captions , dry ingredients, raw meat, ground and spiced, ready to stuff, double stuffed, incubating for 24 hr using my PID and this http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/items/4TDD4 (http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/items/4TDD4) for heat.
Incubating at 85* and 90% RH
Will keep you posted on the progress

Looks nice. Let me know how the infrared heat works. I was afraid to use that type of heat. I thought the sausage would get to a much higher temperature then the air temperature my Ranco was monitoring.

Holding at 81.1 after 18 hours. I haven't opened the door yet, will later on to take out heat and start cooling

As of today here is what they look like, I'm tempted to cut one as they are pretty firm and I'm heading back north in a few days so I'm not sure how they'll take the trip.
