Erzsébet Czopyk Jun 19, 2017: na podstawie zgadywania with all my due respect, we all searched images, sent links, I made a phone call and looked into the fridge. I would call it more as a brainstorming not a "zgadywanie", because guessing (maybe I have not enough knowledge to understand or distinguish) is just something which comes out of your mind (we call itt "puszta találgatás" (something like pure guess) and other when you search mad meke a guess based on the search (megalapozott javaslat) a reasoned guess/recommendation... it was Sunday evening so nowhere to go and ask.
Andrzej Mierzejewski Jun 19, 2017: @Krzysztof "Nie mam pojęcia na czym polega to blatowanie." Z ciekawości przy okazji zakupów zapytałem w dwóch sklepach mięsnych - nikt nie wiedział. Akurat w tych sklepach nie mają wyrobów Morlin. Ja bym zapytał dział marketingu Morlin, niech wyjaśni. Chyba, że chcesz tłumaczyć na podstawie zgadywania przez innych tłumaczy.
The Kat (X) Jun 18, 2017: @MacroJanus Hahaha!
Frank Szmulowicz, Ph. D. Jun 18, 2017: Bon appétit. Bacon = a direct intravenous cholestorol injection.
The Kat (X) Jun 18, 2017: OK, yes, then it's the slab bacon (despite not getting the full slab).
Erzsébet Czopyk Jun 18, 2017: This is a very nice piece: http://www.papaihus.hu/termektar/32/76
Erzsébet Czopyk Jun 18, 2017: I try to distinguish. I take a look at the fridge. So thin slices is "szeletelt bacon" (I think this is sliced in English) and thick slices are "darabolt bacon". My Yoda Master can help me how is the darabolt could be in English? Cheap TESCO version of it: https://bevasarlas.tesco.hu/groceries/hu-HU/products/2004003... And this is the thin sliced one: https://bevasarlas.tesco.hu/groceries/hu-HU/products/2004120...
The Kat (X) Jun 18, 2017: Hahaha! On my way! ;-)
Erzsébet Czopyk Jun 18, 2017: Yes, yes, come to Hungary and fall in love... very have just like on the picture these thin slices, and we have Hungarian thick one. We use them for breakfast :) They are delicious not just the machine-processed ones.. Look for a blog "The Paprika Project" (adventures of an American in Hungary :) http://www.paprikaproject.com/
The Kat (X) Jun 18, 2017: @Erzsebet The bacon is soaked in sausages??? The process sounds like curing, but if he calls it slicing into thick slices, then it could still be called slabbing. Although I've never seen 1cm thin bacon. Sliced bacon is usually the kind sliced for consumer use. http://www.clovegarden.com/ingred/ap_baconz.html
Erzsébet Czopyk Jun 18, 2017: What I forgot to tell, those are not that very thin, tiny slices which are processed with machine. These slices are approx. 1-1,5-2 cm thick.
Erzsébet Czopyk Jun 18, 2017: Finally i made a phone call. My friend where I buy the meat (he is a butcher and he has a small store) says that it is a bacon soaked (? I do not know the proper English word) in salt + sausages + preservatives to avoid bacteria (which is obligatory here), then cut into slices. So he named as sliced bacon. And the skin is never removed because other wise the bacon would fall apart. Hmmmm... I am hungry ...:)
geopiet Jun 18, 2017: może o tą skórę chodzi bacon slab with skin/rind .... ?

The Kat (X) Jun 18, 2017: @Krzysztof A jakie sa wymienione kroki w tym procesie przed i po blatowaniu?
The Kat (X) Jun 18, 2017: Dotyczy to niestety mebli szlifowanie wykończające („blatowanie”) http://www.przedborz.com.pl/index.php?option=com_content&tas...
The Kat (X) Jun 18, 2017: @Frank MacroJanus "However, in Polish, "blat" is "płyta stanowiąca wierzchnią część stołu, biurka,", itp.", so an interpretation in which the bacon is "cut into rectangular strips" is also possible." Jak popatrzysz na zdjecie tego blatowanego boczku, to on nie jest pokrojony.
The Kat (X) Jun 18, 2017: @geopiet Steamed = parzony, a nie blatowany.
geopiet Jun 18, 2017: ze stron TESCO - Morliny Boczek wędzony 150 g - https://ezakupy.tesco.pl/groceries/pl-PL/products/2003005900... Morliny Smoked Bacon 150 g - https://ezakupy.tesco.pl/groceries/en-GB/products/2003005900... ------ Morliny Boczek blatowany wędzony parzony - https://ezakupy.tesco.pl/groceries/pl-PL/products/2003120084... Morliny Steamed Smoked Bacon - https://ezakupy.tesco.pl/groceries/en-GB/products/2003120084... -- dalej nie wiemy co z tym „blatowaniem” ...
Frank Szmulowicz, Ph. D. Jun 18, 2017: Well, in German, blatt is a sheet/a leaf (something thin, that is), so pressing something into a thin strip makes sense. Morliny Boczek blatowany wędzony parzony https://ezakupy.tesco.pl/groceries/pl-PL/products/2003120084... Morliny Steamed Smoked Bacon https://ezakupy.tesco.pl/groceries/en-GB/products/2003120084... (blatowany nie jest przetłumaczony). However, in Polish, "blat" is "płyta stanowiąca wierzchnią część stołu, biurka,", itp.", so an interpretation in which the bacon is "cut into rectangular strips" is also possible.
Erzsébet Czopyk Jun 18, 2017: Call Frank MacroJanus and/or geopiet. If they do not know, call your client. I gave up :(
The Kat (X) Jun 18, 2017: Moze chodzi o prasowanie? Bacon processing Fresh pork bellies are shipped to processing companies in large containers called “combo bins.” Individual bellies undergo the following before being converted into sliced bacon for the consumer: Skinned (using a Townsend skinner) Trimmed of ragged edges (using Whizard knives) Pumped (usually Townsend injector) Placed on bacon combs and put on trees or trucks for thermal processing Thermal processing Chilling Pressing Slicing (Anco slicer) Premium slices Secondary slices Ends and pieces Packaging http://meat.tamu.edu/ansc-307-honors/bacon-and-ham-processin...
