Dried gyulai sausage 'sweating'

Postby grisell » Wed Feb 08, 2023 12:23 pm

Hello,

I'm making cold-smoked and air-dried Hungarian sausage (Gyulai), in hog casings. Everything seems to be working fine. After smoking, it's now been hanging to dry and ferment for 12 days. First at 75% relative humidity (20 C/68 C), then gradually decreasing the humidity, and now at ca 50% (it's hanging in my bathroom :) ). It's not completely dry yet.

Now to the question: Today I noticed that the sausage is 'sweating', with some fatty liquid dripping. Is this normal? Anything to worry about?

Thanks in advance.
André

I have a simple taste - I'm always satisfied with the best.
