Product Description
What is salvianda salt a.k.a. cure #2?

How do you use salvianda salt?
Salvianda salt it extremely suitable for all types of charcuterie and for dry sausage of the southern European type. You use it in the same dosage as nitrite salt (dry sausage / charcuterie) or sea salt (charcuterie). The added nitrite ensures rapid color formation and protection against bacteria such as C. botulinum and Salmonella. The added nitrate can be seen as a ‘time-released’ form of nitrite, which works in the longer term and also gives a characteristic matured taste. The dextrose gives better color formation in collaboration with the nitrite. Note, the amount dextrose in salvianda is not sufficient for fermentation in this dosage.
