mike seltenrichI agree in my experience the Umai bags DOES dry age the meat for sure.
HOWEVER the one thing I have noted is that there is not quite as much nutty/cheesy taste at 45 and 60 days as in dedicated fridge without bag…
Hence my thoughts of removing the bag — I agree that this would very likely result in the meat taking up smells from other items in the fridge and hence my hesitation.
I have also thought about putting some pedicle from a previous dry aged piece INSIDE the bag to seed it with some mold, but haven’t tried that either.. My goal is to get safe molds growing inside the bag..
