Making hide & sinew glue from scraps

<< < (7/8) > >>

Fox:
I just tried making a batch from rawhide dog bone scrapes... and it isn’t at all sticky.. I have stuff that I bought a while ago and it works and it’s real sticky... the stuff I made is a creamy color it’s been cooking for 6 hours at 170 ... it gells but it’s not sticky at all there was one point when it went over 170  could that have been the problem ?

DC:
Is it about the consistency of syrup? I'm thinking it's too thin and you need to cook it a little longer.

Fox:
Okay I’ll try... after cooling it’s about the consistency of pudding

DC:
It should be like light syrup when it's warm. All I've ever used is dog chew rawhide.

Fox:
Another question... how do you rehydrate it?
