Loquat flower drying method

Abstract

The invention relates to a loquat flower drying method. The loquat flower drying method comprises the steps of 1) providing a drying device, wherein a steam pipe for heating internal air is arranged in the drying device and material trays for containing loquat flowers is placed in the drying device; 2) flatly laying harvested fresh loquat flowers on each material tray by thickness of 5-10cm; 3) feeding high-temperature and high-pressure steam into the steam pipe, wherein the heated steam pipe heats the air in the drying device to dry the loquat flowers. The method has the advantages that since the loquat flowers which are collected from the field are quickly dried through the air heated by the high-temperature and high-pressure steam, on the premise that the natural fragrance of the loquat flowers is guaranteed, polyphenol substances in the loquat flowers are effectively prevented from being oxidized, the green grass flavor in the loquat flowers is greatly reduced and the batch drying of the fresh loquat flowers is realized.

Description
