Imported meat is being favored by consumers due to impressive softness, delicious and tasty taste than regular beef. Currently, demand for beef and pork of Vietnames consumers have increased sharply, while domestic production is not enough. However, a part of consumers still hold prejudice that imported meat, frozen meat is not fresh and delicious because they are frozen meat. Instead, they continue to bet on the health of themselves and their families into the meat of unknown origin, and low safety in the market or roadside stalls with thousands of lurking dangers.
Overall, imported meat has full certificates of food hygiene safety, quarantine and origin due to be imported from countries where standards of animal breeding and food hygiene safety are very strict such as US, Australia, Canada, Germany, France,etc
According to scientific research, after slaughter, meat will spend three main periods including: Stiffness, maturatation and decomposition.
Stiffness period: as soon as animals are stopped life, in muscle tissue, the stiffness will start. Depending on the type of meat and ambient conditions, complete stiffness time will be different. For beef, at a temperature of 15-18oC, meat has complete stiffness after 10-12 hours. Meat in this period is not good for processing by worst water retention and ability to connect protein, so it does not taste good, very tough, can not be used for processing. This state of meat commonly found selling in market that people usually misunderstand as fresh and “hot” meat.
“Hot” meat in market is not fresh as we misunderstand.
Maturatation period: This is the period of freshest meat because it has good changes about nature causing aroma and delicious taste. Meat becomes soft, with good elasticity, specific pink color. Meat at this period has high humidity so it is easy to digest. Changing intensity, the nature of meat and maturatation time crucially depends on the ambient temperature. Besides that, it also depends on other factors such as breeds of animal, parts of the animal and the state of animals after slaughter. For example, old animal meat is slower in maturatation than young one, ox meat is slower in maturatation than cows, sick animal meat will not taste as good as healthy one.
For cattles in the normal state before slaughter, complete maturatation time as follows:
The following table shows us the difference of meat in different states.
Imported meat is quickly and deeply frozen to preserve nutrients. Meat preservation spends completely biochemical maturatation period to reach a state of the most delicious meat, also known as maturate fresh meat. Then, meat is reconstituted through the slow defrost process and when products come to consumers, they are still completely natural fresh.
Imported meat contains nutrients and sweetness, aroma and exceptional softness more than hot meat in the market for it is only keeping at room temperature, poor sanitary conditions, which is the favorable environment for microorganisms to grow quick, then causing meat easy to be perishable, rancid and metamorphic.
In addition, hot meat, under normal understanding, without fast processing will be less nutritious than frozen meat due to the risk of microbial exposure, leading to a high speed of nutrient loss.
Therefore, cooling as quick as possible and defrost as slow as possible is scientific method to have fresh meat with full of nutrition.
Specialized Industrial equipment will supply the freezing faster than family refrigerator, so food should be frozen quickly, the smaller ice crystals cause little broken into the cell and less moisture loss, also less risk of microorganism infection. If you defrost slowly, it will have time to absorb the lost moisture again.
Defrost meat in the refrigerator overnight will give a better quality of meat than under running water tap. And the ability to re-freeze would be simpler if you do not want to cook at that time. If you defrost properly, frozen meat also gives same quality as fresh meat.
