Meat Tenderizer Powder – Tender Meat in Less Time
Tough meat wastes time and gas and disappoints customers. Al Laith meat tenderizer powder softens the meat fibres before cooking, so meat cooks faster and comes out tender. That saves gas and time and lets you use cheaper cuts with a respectable result.
Steak and escalope restaurants, grill and kebab houses, stew kitchens and chicken shops all use it. The dose depends on the meat: imported beef needs more than local beef, and chicken less. Most importantly, do not overdose or over-marinate, or the meat can turn mushy.
