Abstract

A method of coating at least the internal or external surface of a shirred casing strand for foodstuffs with a smoke flavor comprising placing a liquid smoke flavor solution in contact with a shirred casing strand; applying a pressure to the solution so that the smoke solution is forced to flow between the pleats or folds of the casing and thereby coats the surface of the casing in shirred form. A shirred casing coated by this method is also provided.
