subject: Preservation Processing Technology Shepherd's Purse - Capsella Processing, Fresh Vegetables - [print this page] Shepherd's Purse, alias pillow grass, grass triangle, Dumplings Food, water chestnut dishes. Capsella cruciferous annual and biennial herbs.
Food distributed virtually throughout the country, widely distributed in temperate regions around the world. Born in the roadside of edge or vegetables, wheat, etc.. Shepherd's purse of high nutritional value, and whole plant medicine. It is of sweet, flat, with diuretic, bleeding, blood pressure, eyesight, and consumer product such as heat effect. Thus shepherd's purse was widely loved. In order to make wild Capsella
supply market throughout the year to meet the needs of consumers, now shepherd's purse storage process technology are described below:
1. Raw materials and equipment Shepherd's purse bought by the market or self-excavation of wild derived from copper sulfate purchased from the market.
Equipment: platform scale, stainless steel pot, electric stove, vacuum Sealing machine , Electric water bath, refrigerator and so on.
2. Process Optional sorting fresh Shepherd's Purse Cleaning blanching, color water washing, cooling, vacuum sealing Bag cooling product sterilization
3. Operation points and the results
Optional sorting, washing. To pick debris, remove the old leaves, tender leaves used (which can take root), wash away the silt so.
blanching. Blanching is the process of shepherd's purse a very important part, can play off enzymes, bacteria, get rid of shepherd's purse tissue gas that protects the color of shepherd's purse, to improve storage stability. Water boiling, add the shepherd's purse can be blanched 1 minute.
treament. Adding citric acid in blanching time and heat of copper sulfate, although copper is an essential trace element, but it is also strictly limited the metal element. Therefore, pay special attention to dosage, but to ensure that the amount ( 10 mg / kg).
washing and cooling. In order to prevent over-blanching, resulting in tissue is too soft, and reduce nutrient loss to be promptly put in cold water to cool shepherd's purse, and wash off the excess copper and so on.
vacuum seal. After cooling, washing, proper control of water, weighed into a dedicated Plastic bags , The use of Vacuum packaging machine Removing air oxidation and aerobic bacteria to breed, and sealing.
heat sterilization and cooling. In order to prevent the slow growth and reproduction of microorganisms, to the purpose of long-term preservation of corrosion, after the still low temperature heat sealing (65 ~ 70 , 15 minutes), and a very small amount of lactic acid bacteria to kill micro-organisms, and lose time to cool, to avoid over-cooked shepherd's purse organization Soft. Processed using this technology
bags Capsella be room temperature and refrigerated better. Long-term storage, the color is still bright, fresh, delicate fragrance. To serve, according to individual tastes and preferences, seasoning salad or as a garnish made dumplings, dumplings, soup, fried Eggs And so on.
The preservation of technology to solve the corrosion problem shepherd's purse, opened up new ways of processing edible wild plants can enrich people's table, and is conducive to human health, will make good social and economic benefits.
