Examples: cured and dried ham, fermented and dried sausages.<br />\r\nThis category includes:<br />\r\n- <em>Sobrasada</em>: sausage meat products made of minced pig meat and fat (or other animals), seasoned with paprika, salt and spices, mixed to obtain a spreadable paste, encased in natural or reconstituted artificial casings, followed by maturing and drying.<br />\r\n- <em>Bratwurst</em>: sausage meat product made of pork and/or beef (or meat of other animals), fat, water, spices, salted (at least 1.5% salt) or cured (at least 1.5% salt with 0.4 to 0.6% sodium nitrate), minced to obtain spreadable sausage filling and stuffed in edible casings; intermediate product intended to be eaten after heating.<br />\r\n- <em>Leberkäse</em>: sausage meat product made of pork and/or beef (or meat of other animals), fat, water, potato starch, spices, salted (at least 1.5% salt) or cured (at least 1.5% salt with 0.4 to 0.6% sodium nitrate), minced to obtain spreadable sausage filling placed in a baking pan; intermediate product intended to be eaten after heating.<br />\r\n- <em>Julskinka </em>and (Swedish) traditional cured pork and beef: meat is injected with curing solution (usually between 2,3 -3% salt) including nitrate (max 150 mg/kg to the product) as a preservative and other additives (ascorbic acid or ascorbates and sometimes phosphate) and may after that be tumbled, stored for maturing or immersed in a curing solution. To be prepared in the households.<br />\r\n-<em>Julkorv, grynkorv, värmlandskorv </em>and<em> fläskkorv</em> are Swedish traditional raw sausages made of minced pig and/or beef meat and/or fat. Made with or without the characteristics of an emulsion, seasoned with salt and spices, encased in natural or artificial casings, often followed by maturing. Vegetable fibers such as grain or potato are used in some of these sausage. To be prepared in the households.<br />\r\n- Pasturmas: a strongly dehydrated fermented-cured chopped meat product. The dehydration process is promoted through application of intense compression.<br />\r\nProduced mainly from beef meat (as well as from sheep and goat meat) cut into strips οf 12-20 cm width, thickness of about 5-8 cm and of 40-50 cm long. It is produced by a 3-step process which consists of salting-pressuring-curing step process. Salting process always takes place in dry environment and lasts for 7-10 days. After salting, meat is rinsed off with plenty of cold water and hung in special rooms to be dehydrated. During dehydration, meat is compressed in order to promote moisture loss. Once dehydration has been completed, the pieces of meat are coated externally with a mass mixture consisting of garlic, fenugreek (also known as trigonella), red pepper and other seasonings/spices. Then meat remains in the same room where dehydration had been previously taken place in order to be dried and for the external coating to be stabilized”. ",

Examples: cured and dried ham, fermented and dried sausages.<br />\r\nThis category includes:<br />\r\n- <em>Sobrasada</em>: sausage meat products made of minced pig meat and fat (or other animals), seasoned with paprika, salt and spices, mixed to obtain a spreadable paste, encased in natural or reconstituted artificial casings, followed by maturing and drying.<br />\r\n- <em>Bratwurst</em>: sausage meat product made of pork and/or beef (or meat of other animals), fat, water, spices, salted (at least 1.5% salt) or cured (at least 1.5% salt with 0.4 to 0.6% sodium nitrate), minced to obtain spreadable sausage filling and stuffed in edible casings; intermediate product intended to be eaten after heating.<br />\r\n- <em>Leberkäse</em>: sausage meat product made of pork and/or beef (or meat of other animals), fat, water, potato starch, spices, salted (at least 1.5% salt) or cured (at least 1.5% salt with 0.4 to 0.6% sodium nitrate), minced to obtain spreadable sausage filling placed in a baking pan; intermediate product intended to be eaten after heating.<br />\r\n- <em>Julskinka </em>and (Swedish) traditional cured pork and beef: meat is injected with curing solution (usually between 2,3 -3% salt) including nitrate (max 150 mg/kg to the product) as a preservative and other additives (ascorbic acid or ascorbates and sometimes phosphate) and may after that be tumbled, stored for maturing or immersed in a curing solution.

It is produced by a 3-step process which consists of salting-pressuring-curing step process. Salting process always takes place in dry environment and lasts for 7-10 days. After salting, meat is rinsed off with plenty of cold water and hung in special rooms to be dehydrated. During dehydration, meat is compressed in order to promote moisture loss. Once dehydration has been completed, the pieces of meat are coated externally with a mass mixture consisting of garlic, fenugreek (also known as trigonella), red pepper and other seasonings/spices. Then meat remains in the same room where dehydration had been previously taken place in order to be dried and for the external coating to be stabilized”. ",

After salting, meat is rinsed off with plenty of cold water and hung in special rooms to be dehydrated. During dehydration, meat is compressed in order to promote moisture loss. Once dehydration has been completed, the pieces of meat are coated externally with a mass mixture consisting of garlic, fenugreek (also known as trigonella), red pepper and other seasonings/spices. Then meat remains in the same room where dehydration had been previously taken place in order to be dried and for the external coating to be stabilized”. ",

Made with or without the characteristics of an emulsion, seasoned with salt and spices, encased in natural or artificial casings, often followed by maturing. Vegetable fibers such as grain or potato are used in some of these sausage. To be prepared in the households.<br />\r\n- Pasturmas: a strongly dehydrated fermented-cured chopped meat product. The dehydration process is promoted through application of intense compression.<br />\r\nProduced mainly from beef meat (as well as from sheep and goat meat) cut into strips οf 12-20 cm width, thickness of about 5-8 cm and of 40-50 cm long. It is produced by a 3-step process which consists of salting-pressuring-curing step process. Salting process always takes place in dry environment and lasts for 7-10 days. After salting, meat is rinsed off with plenty of cold water and hung in special rooms to be dehydrated. During dehydration, meat is compressed in order to promote moisture loss. Once dehydration has been completed, the pieces of meat are coated externally with a mass mixture consisting of garlic, fenugreek (also known as trigonella), red pepper and other seasonings/spices. Then meat remains in the same room where dehydration had been previously taken place in order to be dried and for the external coating to be stabilized”. ",
