Carne stagionata?

carne frollata
Explanation:
Attenta, perché la carne "stagionata" da noi è SECCA, mentre qui parliamo di carne fresca, più morbida perché lasciata frollare.

Explanation:
credo che Sabina abbia ragione.
Si tratta della frollatura. Il testo sotto smbra che distingua la frollatura a secco (non impacchettata) che dura di più, costa di più ed ora meno usata, da quella ad umido (impacchettata) che dura di meno, costa di meno.



It's been decades since butchers first discovered that beef carcasses, left hanging for several days, ended up more tender and palatable as natural enzymes in the meat broke down proteins and connective tissue.
Today the "wet" process is primarily used for aging steaks. Wet aging is done by allowing the beef to age in a vacuum packed bag.
Dry aging was big in the 50's and 60's, then the market moved to the less-costly boxed beef and vacuum packaging. 99% of Supermarkets today sell boxed beef. In the 80's, dry aging enjoyed a resurgence.
Dry-aged steak is aged in the open air at controlled temperature between 34 F and 38 F with an ambient humidity level adjusted between 50% and 75%. Wet-aged meat is placed in a vacuum-sealed bag.
Dry-aged beef requires 7 to 14 days or longer to age properly. Wet-aged beef can mature in as few as 7 days.
Meat is muscle, and muscle is composed of protein structures that break down with the aging process. This results in more tender cuts of meat and more flavour.
It's the benign bacteria within the meat itself that causes the degradation.
Air circulation is essential in managing dry aging and is perhaps the biggest reason why dry-aged beef costs substantially more, since the resultant evaporation causes significant shrinkage.
Typical shrinkage is 10 to 15%. And dry-aged beef usually cost about 25% more than wet aged beef.
But if you have ever had dry-aged beef, you know the cost is worth it!
