MEAT PRESERVING.
A NEW METHOD.
REMARKABLY CHEAP
PROCESS,
Melbourne, June 24,
The new (process of preserving meat has been '"patented. The meat is immersed in a solution for a few minutes, when a coating is formed, which effectually prevents the escape of the juices, and enables it to resist the attack of destructive germs. The coating disappears upon cooking. The inventors claim that meat can be preserved for weeks and months at a cost of one-fifth of a penny per lb. Whether the process is suitable for exporting meat or not has not yet been tested. Externally the meat shows a slight shrinkage, but when cut is fresh and juicy. The experiments so far have been successful.
