Extension Agent Explains
Beef Tenderizing Process
Mrs. Lee Sheehan, Jackson
county extension agent for
home economics, today issued
a statement explaining the
new ProTen tendered beef
which is being Introduced in
this area this week. Mrs. Shee
han states that one of the large
meat processing companies
has developed a new method
to tenderize beef by the addi
tion of natural enzymes and
adds that these enzymes do
not change the flavor of the
beef nor are they a seasoning.
'They only tenderize the
tissues of the beef," the home
economist declared.
"As homemakers know, beef
has been previously placed in
two categorles-the tender cuts
such as steaks, standing rib
roasts and rolled rib roasts
art cooked by the dry heat
method such as oven roasting,
broiling, charcoal grilling and
rotlsserle," Mrs. Sheehan ex
plained. "The other group, the
less-tender cuts of beef, in
clude the. chuck roasts, round
steak,-blade roasts or steaks,
stew meat, brisket and many
Others. This second group has
always t required the. moist
heat method of cooking. -This
is done by adding a small
amount of liquid, covering
and cooking slowly on top of
(ha range or in the oven. ,
' "The -- ProTen tenderizing
process if not a method to up
grade beef; it simply makes
good beef more versatile and
all grades and cuts more ten
der. In the top . grades, it
means "that cuts from the
chuck and round, formerly
considered best when cooked
by moist heat, can now be
cooked by dry heat. , r
"This new products will be
especially valuable to home
makers with the beginning of
the outdoor cooking season -now
homemakers no longer
need to buy more expensive
cuts In-order to broil their
meats on an outdoor broiler.
"In lower grades, these cuts
are still best cooked by moist
heat but will have a more de
pendable tenderness," she concluded.
