Problems solved by technology

This quick-freezing method has the following defects: (1) the whole body of the swimming crab is wrapped by a hard shell, and the low-temperature protective agent is difficult to enter the swimming crab through the crab shell during soaking, and the soaking and antifreezing effect is poor; Then place the quick-frozen swimming crabs in ice water containing ice-coating agent to coat the surface of the swimming crabs with a layer of ice coating. When the swimming crabs are quick-frozen, they first start from the shell so that the shell first freezes, hardens and becomes brittle (the mechanical strength of the crab body becomes poor) Therefore, freezing first will cause the frozen swimming crab shell to be difficult to withstand the expansion pressure generated by the internal freezing of the swimming crab, which will easily cause cracks or bulges, and there is still a high rate of freezing cracks (8%); (3) Freezing The final swimming crabs are placed in ice water containing ice coating agent to coat the ice coat. The thickness of the ice coating is not easy to control, and when the swimming crabs are taken out of the ice water, ice will be formed, which will affect the appearance quality of the swimming crabs. In addition, the resulting ice The clothing has poor elasticity and strength, and it is easy to fall off when colliding; (4) The formed ice clothing only has the effect of isolating the swimming crab from the outside world, and cannot prevent the color change of the swimming crab

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of freezing and refreshing of aquatic products, in particular to a liquid nitrogen flash freezing method for swimming crabs. The method comprises the following steps of 1, cleaning; 2, pore formation; 3, immersion; 4, ice glazing; 5, average-temperature liquid nitrogen flash freezing; 6, vacuum packaging. The technical steps are easy, the process is stable and controllable, the operability is high, the frozen cracking rate of the frozen swimming crabs obtained by using the method is low, the ice is uniform in thickness and not likely to peel off, and the frozen swimming crabs are good in appearance quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of frozen and fresh-keeping aquatic products, in particular to a liquid nitrogen quick-freezing method for swimming crabs. Background technique [0002] Swimming crab meat is tender and tender, delicious, high in protein content, rich in essential fatty acids and vitamins A and D, and is loved by Chinese people. It is also one of the main aquatic products that my country exports to earn foreign exchange. Swimming crabs are regarded as an important aquatic resource in China, but because their muscles are rich in protein, fat and various minerals, they are easily spoiled after death, and crab meat will also experience muscle "gelatinization". In order to reduce the quality deterioration of swimming crabs and inhibit the gelatinization of muscle fibers, low-temperature freezing storage methods are usually adopted. The commonly used methods for cryogenic freezing of swimming crabs include plate quick freezing, ...
