Why do my casings smell?
A strong smell is usually normal for natural casings. Here’s what to know:
- Salt/Brine Smell (Normal): Rinse under cold water; soak in fresh water (vinegar optional).
- Improper Storage: Casings exposed to heat/humidity may break down. Always refrigerate in brine or light salt.
- Bad Odors (Rotten/Fishy): Indicates spoilage—discard immediately.
- Not Cleaned Before Use: Soak in warm water for 30+ minutes and flush inside/out before stuffing.
How should I store natural casings?
- For short-term use: refrigerate, submerged in brine or light salt.
- For long-term: pack in heavy salt and refrigerate.
- Never freeze casings—freezing damages them.
