Sunflower seed processing method

Abstract

The invention provides a sunflower seed processing method. Sunflower seeds are used as raw materials, and the sunflower seeds are produced after cleaning, positive and negative pressure boiling, microwave hot blast drying, sorting and packaging. The processing method is characterized by comprising specific processing steps as follows: dust on surfaces of the to-be-processed sunflower seeds is cleaned and impurity particles in the seeds are removed by a seed cleaning machine; the cleaned sunflower seeds are placed in a boiling tank to be boiled under the high pressure of 0.18 MPa for 20-30 min and then boiled under the negative pressure of 0.08 MPa for 20-30 min, and 5-6 circulations are performed in such manner; microwave hot blast drying is performed on the boiled sunflower seeds, the microwave length is 2450 MHz, the hot blast temperature is 70-80 DEG C, and the drying time is 20 min; the dried sunflower seeds are cooled and empty seeds are removed by a sorting machine; the sorted sunflower seeds are packaged with paper packaging bags. With the adoption of the method, the crispness of the seeds can be guaranteed, the seeds are tasty by the aid of the negative pressure, the dynamic liquid seed effect can be realized in a negative-pressure slight-boiling manner, the current situation that existing internal, external, upper and lower layers of seeds are not uniformly tasty is improved, the microwave hot blast drying speed is higher, excessive evaporation of aromatic hydrocarbon is avoided, and the flavor of the sunflower seeds is better kept.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for processing melon seeds, in particular to a method for processing sunflower seeds. Background technique [0002] Sunflower seeds are people's favorite snack food. Sunflower seeds are rich in unsaturated fatty acids, high-quality protein, potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, selenium, vitamin E, vitamin B1 and other nutrients; sunflower seeds can also regulate brain cell metabolism and improve their inhibitory function, so they can be used as in hypnosis. [0003] There are mainly two kinds of sunflower seeds processing methods at present. The first is stir-frying, put the seasoning in the pot, and then the melon seeds are fried together with the seasoning; the second is cooking, put the seasoning package in the pot, and then put the melon seeds in the pot for cooking, Dry after cooking. The disadvantage of frying melon seeds is that the surface of the melon seeds has a strong taste, while the melon seeds h...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage of frying melon seeds is that the surface of the melon seeds has a strong taste, while the melon seeds have a light taste, and the degree of penetration of the seasoning into the melon seeds is poor.

The disadvantages of processing melon seeds by cooking method are high energy consumption, slow taste speed, and uneven taste of melon seeds in the tank, so the cooking process must be further improved
