‘Extensive interest’ in reformed and breading technologies at centre

Bord Iascaigh Mhara (BIM) has generated extensive industry interest in new reformed and breading technologies at the Seafood Development Centre in Clonakilty, Co Cork.

“We have received a large amount of queries to date regarding forming and breading technologies for whitefish and shellfish species,” said John Fagan, senior technologist of BIM.

“In response to industry requests, we have secured a commercial forming, breading, and flash-frying line from Deighton, UK, and this is backed-up by a Baader 600 meat separator so we can look at both whole-fillet and recovered meat products across a wide variety of species.
