Method for storing color and luster and flavor of Chinese chestnut-lotus root composite ultramicro whole powder with easy gelatinization

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for storing the color and luster and flavor of Chinese chestnut-lotus root composite ultramicro whole powder with easy gelatinization, and belongs to the field of the food processing of fruits and vegetables. The method comprises the following main processes of: peeling Chinese chestnuts and fresh lotus roots, cutting into slices, and keeping colors by using a composite color fixative prepared from citric acid, ascorbic acid and N-acetylcysteine; freeze-drying by microwave to prepare dried slices; and crushing the dried slices of the Chinese chestnuts and thelotus roots coarsely, mixing, and performing airflow type ultramicro full crushing to prepare the Chinese chestnut-lotus root composite ultramicro whole powder with the easy gelatinization. In the processing process, the change of the color and luster in the drying and crushing processes in the later period can be controlled by color-keeping processing; in the drying process, the change degree ofthe color and luster and flavor in the conventional hot-air drying process is reduced obviously by the microwave freeze-drying technology; and in the crushing process, the loss of excessive heat generated by the mechanical shearing crushing technology on the color and luster and flavor is prevented effectively by the airflow type ultramicro full crushing technology, and the flavor and nutrition of the Chinese chestnuts and the lotus roots can be better mixed by high-pressure air combination in the ultramicro full crushing process.
