After adding ethyl maltol in meat processing, ethyl maltol will undergo a complex reaction with the iron ions in myoglobin, thereby preventing the degradation of myoglobin into iron-free porphyrin-globulin complexes. Since globulin complexes are prone to further decomposition under normal conditions, half of the products are light green porphyrins, which affects the flavor and quality of meat products. The presence of ethyl maltol will prevent the degradation of myoglobin, or can make canned cooked meat pink without adding nitrite. Ethyl maltol also has the effect of removing the odor of raw materials and maintaining a long-lasting fragrance and flavor.

A3 type
It has the advantages of high purity, high quality, high whiteness, and unique aroma. The characteristic flavor is more prominent, the burnt aroma is mellow and rich, and the aftertaste is long and lasting after being dissolved by heat. While maintaining the original characteristic aroma of meat products, it can maximize the aroma concentration of the product, and has the functions of suppressing acidity, suppressing bitterness, removing fishy smell, and preservatives. It is suitable for meat products such as high-end ham, salt-water ham, and high-end sausages that highlight the meat texture.
