Question 2

Hi. once opened how long will they keep please? should they be kept in a fridge or cupboard? tia

Accepted Answer

The airbag container advises to store it in a cool dry place (although it doesn't specifically advise on what to do once opened--I have assumed the advice applies once opened). Shelf life seems to be 2 years from date of manufacture. My order was maufactured in Oct 2020 and received in June 2021, so 8 months in to its 2 year shelf life.

Question 3

Hi, can you tell me what type of oil this has been prepared in?  Many thanks

Accepted Answer

The product specifications do not state what type of oil.  Flour  obtained  from  pig  skin  clean  from  the  area  of  the  spine  of  the  animal,  partially  dehydrated  and defatted.

Question 4

Can i use this to make low carb tortilla wraps?

Accepted Answer

The product description is:
SOSA 58400000 Airbag Flour (Farina) 600g
Crispy pork flour made from dehydrated pork skin.  Use to panee items then deep fry or shallow fry.   
Sosa describe this product as follows:
Very peculiar, as well as surprising, it is a product made boiled pork skin, partially dehydrated and crushed, which once fry in the paella, it swells up to 4 or 5 times its previous size, its flavor being similar to the pork rind we are used to, use it alone or as a batter, you will get a surprising result!
I'm not sure whether this product can be used to make tortilla wraps - it may be worth experimenting with a small amount.  Generally it seems to be used as a coating for frying.
