    Using UMAI Dry bags to make salumi

    Using UMAI Dry bags to make salumi

    Anyone have any experience using the UMAI dry bags to make salumi rather than their sausage casings?  It seems like if I formed the salumi product thick enough, I could get a really good seal on an UMAI dry steak bag rather than using the sausage casings (I would use the proper cultures...

    Epic cedar planked steakloaf
