Nduja

[mikeysm]

Here Is my Nduja hanging in my curing chamber. This is a non fermented  soft sausage loaded with sweet and hot pepper powder. Lots of pork back and belly fat in this one. If your on a diet this is not the one to eat. This is a basic recipe. Pork, pork fat, salt, cure and pepper powder.

I think the blue light is to kill bacteria when you turn it on. At least that's the theory behind a blue light. It doesn't stay on only to check what I have drying.

For UV light to be a sterilizing, or perhaps more correctly disinfectation, source it has to be around the 250nm to 260nm wavelength. If its a longer wavelength its just blue light - pretty but not very useful Also UV disinfectation only works on the surface of solid objects. It works much better on 'clear' liquids with minimal suspended solids.
