Abstract

The objective of this work was to describe the stages and products of the technological process of kosher slaughter of broilers, as well as to highlight the specific differences in relation to conventional non-kosher slaughter, based on the specifications of Ordinance No. 210 of 10 November 1998. The flexible markets combined with intense globalization in the current world has influenced companies to adapt to the manufacture of products unusual to traditional ones, aiming to serve a wide audience and, consequently, a greater accumulation of capital. This trend has also taken hold of the food industries, which have to adhere to modernity and dynamics, for the production of specific and differentiated foods, including those of a religious nature, such as kosher products. The present work addressed the modification of the conventional slaughter flowcharts of a chicken slaughterhouse to meet the demand of Jewish consumers in the state of Rio de Janeiro.
