ABSTRACT:
A salt-containing unprocessed foodstuff is charged in a wrapping tube unit comprising a cylindrical body, end plate means comprising members bonded to open opposite ends of the cylindrical body, and a pair of electrical contact members previously impregnated with a salt solution and fitted in the end plate means to provide a wrapped material foodstuff. The end plate means may be of any shape and is formed with a multitude of apertures, at least one of the members having cuts made therein to permit charging of the unprocessed foodstuff in the cylindrical body which may be deformed to conform to the shape of the end plate means. The apparatus for producing a wrapped food comprises a container in which the wrapped material foodstuff is placed and which is mounted on a carriage adapted to move in reciprocating motion longitudinally of the apparatus, and a pair of electrode plates supported by guide rods disposed adjacent open opposite ends of the container and adapted to move in such a manner that, when the carriage moves in reciprocating motion, the electrode plates also move in the same direction in a manner to be brought into and out of pressure engagement with recessed ends of the wrapped material foodstuff in the container to enable a current to be conducted through the unprocessed foodstuff to ripen it by the effect of Joule heat generated therein to produce a processed wrapped food. A sealing member may be applied to each end of the wrapped material foodstuff, before or after the conduction of the current, to enable the food to be preserved in cold storage.
