If i understand what you're saying, I can steam
to form the skin, locks the flavours in and does less
of a denaturing job on whatever is in the mix?
Never steamed a bait
- presumably I can use my cabbage steamer
or a close approximation.
And presumably not the microwave... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (dr barbus) http://barbelfishingworld.yuku.com/sreply/145954 Wed, 29 Nov 2006 23:21:27 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Winter Barbel Baits ]]> http://barbelfishingworld.yuku.com/reply/145953/t/Winter-Barbel-Baits.html#reply-145953

If I want a bait undisturbed for an hour - which sometimes is the case before I get the bite I want, all the paste has been nibbled!
Hence paste wraps or this bait burger idea

Each burger received 10 minutes boiling in total. As it was submerged throughout, there wasn't a need to turn it over;)

I tried boiling one for only 5 minutes, but the skin didn't seem to be forming so well, so back into the burger boiler it went feeds@yuku.com (barbelist) http://barbelfishingworld.yuku.com/sreply/145944 Tue, 28 Nov 2006 19:43:34 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Winter Barbel Baits ]]> http://barbelfishingworld.yuku.com/reply/145943/t/Winter-Barbel-Baits.html#reply-145943 Nice idea
Regarding your Ten minutes per side.
Query: surely if you are boiling it, it is all under water?
Query: Can you form skin it in less - say 5 minutes total?
I would be concerned about denaturing proteins and additives
if I boiled the bait for 20 minutes.

Filled up a couple of old bait pots with some paste, and the rest was rolled out into burger sized pieces, that received 10 minutes boiling each. As each burger was taken from the boil and allowed to dry, a lovely firm skin formed with the inner still being paste like feeds@yuku.com (barbelist) http://barbelfishingworld.yuku.com/sreply/145942 Tue, 28 Nov 2006 18:47:16 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Winter Barbel Baits ]]> http://barbelfishingworld.yuku.com/reply/145941/t/Winter-Barbel-Baits.html#reply-145941 :\ ]]> feeds@yuku.com (newatallthis) http://barbelfishingworld.yuku.com/sreply/145941 Sun, 26 Nov 2006 19:21:58 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Winter Barbel Baits ]]> http://barbelfishingworld.yuku.com/reply/145940/t/Winter-Barbel-Baits.html#reply-145940 :eek :eek
