[0031] Therefore, y = 88.5 ≥ 85 determines that this batch of Phyllostachys pubescens winter bamboo shoots is fresh and has tender flesh.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] The method for judging the freshness and tenderness of bamboo shoots provided in this example includes the following steps:

[0034] S1. Sampling: In the trading market, take a pile of early bamboo shoots from a certain merchant as a batch, with a total of 100 roots, and randomly extract 40 roots of early bamboo shoot samples from this batch of early bamboo shoots;

[0037] The hardness measurement point of the early bamboo shoot is at 1 / 5 above the cut at the base of the bamboo shoot; the acceptable hardness value of the early bamboo shoot is 15.

[0038] S4. Moisture measurement: In the middle of the bamboo shoot individuals of the number of early bamboo shoot samples extracted in S1, use a rapid moisture detector to measure the moisture to obtain the bamboo shoot moisture content. It is obtained that the number of bamboo shoot individuals with the bamboo shoot moisture content greater than or equal to the acceptable moisture content is 40, and the proportion of the number of bamboo shoot individuals with the bamboo shoot moisture content greater than or equal to the acceptable moisture content in the sample quantity is 100%, denoted as x3; the acceptable moisture content of the early bamboo shoot is 88%.

[0039] S5. Evaluation: Through x1 obtained in S2, x2 obtained in S3, and x3 obtained in S4, the scoring formula for judging the tenderness and freshness of bamboo shoots is obtained: y = (20%·x1 + 50%·x2 + 30%·x3)×100 = (20%×0.925 + 50%×0.9 + 30%×1)×100 = 93.5.

[0040] Therefore, y = 93.5 ≥ 85 determines that this batch of early bamboo shoots is fresh and the meat is tender.

[0041] Example 3

[0042] The method for judging the tenderness and freshness of bamboo shoots provided in this example includes the following steps:

[0043] S1. Sampling: In the trading market, take a pile of green bamboo shoots from a certain merchant as a batch, with a total of 100 roots, and randomly extract 20 green bamboo shoot samples from this batch of green bamboo shoots.

[0044] S2.

It is obtained that the number of bamboo shoot individuals with a good appearance is 18, and the proportion of the number of bamboo shoot individuals with a good appearance in the bamboo shoot sample quantity is 90%, denoted as x1.

[0045] S3. Hardness measurement: Select hardness measurement points on the bamboo shoot individuals of the number of green bamboo shoot samples extracted in S1, measure at the hardness measurement points using a digital hardness tester, record the readings, and obtain the bamboo shoot hardness value; it is obtained that the number of bamboo shoot individuals with the bamboo shoot hardness value less than or equal to the acceptable hardness value is 16, and the proportion of the number of bamboo shoot individuals with the bamboo shoot hardness value less than or equal to the acceptable hardness value in the sample quantity is 80%, denoted as x2;

[0046] The hardness measurement point of the green bamboo shoot is at 1 / 8 above the cut at the base of the bamboo shoot; the acceptable hardness value of the green bamboo shoot is 14;

[0047] S4. Moisture measurement: Measure the moisture in the middle of the bamboo shoot individuals of the number of green bamboo shoot samples extracted in S1 using a rapid moisture detector to obtain the bamboo shoot moisture content; it is obtained that the number of bamboo shoot individuals with the bamboo shoot moisture content greater than or equal to the acceptable moisture content is 20, and the proportion of the number of bamboo shoot individuals with the bamboo shoot moisture content greater than or equal to the acceptable moisture content in the sample quantity is 100%, denoted as x3; the acceptable moisture content of the green bamboo shoot is 88%;

[0048] S5. Evaluation: Through x1 obtained in S2, x2 obtained in S3, and x3 obtained in S4, the scoring formula for judging the tenderness and freshness of bamboo shoots is obtained: y = (20%·x1 + 50%·x2 + 30%·x3)×100 = (20%×0.9 + 50%×0. + 30%×1)×100 = 88;

[0049] Therefore, y = 88 ≥ 85 determines that this batch of green bamboo shoots is fresh and has tender flesh.

[0050] The steps for obtaining the scoring formula for judging the tenderness and freshness of bamboo shoots in the present invention are as follows: Determine the weight coefficients of various bamboo shoot indicators according to the coefficient of variation method. The coefficient of variation calculation formula is:

[0051]

[0052] The weight calculation formula for each indicator is:

[0053]

[0054] In formulas (1) and (2): V i represents the coefficient of variation of the i-th indicator; W i represents the weight of the i-th indicator; σ i represents the standard deviation of the i-th indicator; X i represents the arithmetic mean of the i-th indicator.

[0055] Experimental process: For each type of bamboo shoot, 20 individual businesses were randomly selected in the trading market, and corresponding amounts of samples were drawn respectively (20 samples were drawn for winter shoots of Phyllostachys pubescens, spring shoots of Phyllostachys pubescens, and green bamboo shoots; 40 samples were drawn for early bamboo shoots, early bamboo shoots, suckling bamboo shoots, and bamboo rhizome shoots of Phyllostachys pubescens). All the samples taken were of medium to large size and the shoot bodies were intact. The appearance, hardness, and moisture were detected in a timely manner, and the percentage of individuals meeting the requirements in the sample quantity was obtained, as shown in Table 1;

[0056] Table 1 Means of appearance, hardness, and moisture of different bamboo shoots

[0057]

[0058] According to the data in Table 1, equations (1) and (2), the means, standard deviations, coefficients of variation, and weights of appearance, hardness, and moisture were calculated and are shown in Table 2;

[0059] Table 2 Means, standard deviations, coefficients of variation, and weights of appearance, hardness, and moisture

[0060] Index Appearance Hardness Moisture Mean 91.69 85.36 95.73 Standard Deviation 1.71 4.02 2.63 Coefficient of Variation 0.0187 0.0470 0.0275 Weight 0.200 0.505 0.295

[0061] According to the data in Table 2, the comprehensive scoring formula for judging the tenderness and freshness of bamboo shoots was finally obtained as:

[0062] y = (20%·x1 + 50%·x2 + 30%·x3) × 100

[0063] An experiment on determining the acceptable hardness value for different varieties of bamboo shoots was carried out. The experimental process was to randomly select 20 experimentalists, give each person a fresh bamboo shoot of the same variety. After peeling the shell, the human senses were used to determine at which position above the base of the bamboo shoot the flesh was tender, and then the hardness value at that position was measured with a hardness tester. Finally, the maximum value among the 20 data was taken as the acceptable hardness value for this type of bamboo shoot. The experimental results are shown in Table 3;

[0064] According to Table 3, the acceptable hardness values for early bamboo shoots, winter shoots of Phyllostachys pubescens, spring shoots of Phyllostachys pubescens, and early bamboo shoots are 15; the acceptable hardness values for suckling bamboo shoots and green bamboo shoots are 14; the acceptable hardness value for bamboo rhizome shoots of Phyllostachys pubescens is 18.

[0065] Table 3 Determination of acceptable hardness values for different varieties of bamboo shoots

[0066]

[0067] An experiment was conducted to determine the hardness measurement points for different varieties of bamboo shoots. During the experiment, 50 fresh winter shoots of Phyllostachys edulis, spring shoots of Phyllostachys edulis, and green bamboo shoots were randomly selected, and 100 fresh early shoots of covered Phyllostachys praecox, early shoots of Phyllostachys praecox, sucking bamboo shoots, and rhizome shoots of Phyllostachys edulis were randomly selected. After peeling off the bamboo shoot sheaths, the hardness values were measured at 1 / 10, 1 / 8, 1 / 5, 1 / 4, and 1 / 2 above the base of the bamboo shoot body. If there was a bamboo node, the measurement was taken on the upper side of the bamboo node. According to the measured hardness values, the proportion of the hardness values of different varieties of bamboo shoot samples reaching the acceptable hardness value at each measurement point was calculated, and the experimental results are shown in Table 4. Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of the measurement at the middle part of the bamboo shoot body for the hardness measurement point; Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the measurement at 1 / 5 of the bamboo shoot body length above the base incision for the hardness measurement point; Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of the measurement at 1 / 8 above the base incision for the hardness measurement point.

[0068] Converting the data in Table 4 into a line chart as shown in Figure 1 It can be found that the proportions of the hardness values of spring shoots of Phyllostachys edulis, winter shoots of Phyllostachys edulis, early shoots of covered Phyllostachys praecox, early shoots of Phyllostachys praecox, and sucking bamboo shoots reaching the acceptable hardness value at the 1 / 10 and 1 / 8 hardness measurement points are relatively low, and the proportions of the hardness values reaching the acceptable hardness value at the 1 / 5 hardness measurement point are all above 80%. Therefore, 1 / 5 above the base of the bamboo shoot body is selected as the hardness measurement point for spring shoots of Phyllostachys edulis, winter shoots of Phyllostachys edulis, early shoots of covered Phyllostachys praecox, early shoots of Phyllostachys praecox, and sucking bamboo shoots; for rhizome shoots of Phyllostachys edulis, only the proportion of the hardness value reaching the acceptable hardness value at the 1 / 2 hardness measurement point is greater than 80%, so the middle part of the bamboo shoot body is selected as the hardness measurement point for rhizome shoots of Phyllostachys edulis; for green bamboo shoots, the proportion of the hardness value reaching the acceptable hardness value at the 1 / 8 hardness measurement point is greater than 80%, so 1 / 8 above the base of the bamboo shoot body is selected as the hardness measurement point for green bamboo shoots.

[0069] Table 4 Proportions of the hardness values of different varieties of bamboo shoot samples reaching the acceptable hardness value at each measurement point (%)

[0070]

[0071]

[0072] Method for determining the acceptable moisture content: Randomly select 20 fresh winter shoots of Phyllostachys edulis, spring shoots of Phyllostachys edulis, and green bamboo shoots, and 40 fresh early shoots of covered Phyllostachys praecox, early shoots of Phyllostachys praecox, sucking bamboo shoots, and rhizome shoots of Phyllostachys edulis. After placing them for 48 hours, peel off the sheaths and measure the moisture content, and take their respective averages to determine the acceptable moisture content of each type of bamboo shoot. The experimental results are shown in Table 5;

[0073] Finally, it is determined that the acceptable moisture content of spring shoots of Phyllostachys edulis, early shoots of covered Phyllostachys praecox, early shoots of Phyllostachys praecox, sucking bamboo shoots, and green bamboo shoots is 88%, the acceptable moisture content of winter shoots of Phyllostachys edulis is 82%, and the acceptable moisture content of rhizome shoots of Phyllostachys edulis is 73%.
