Abstract
Description
1. Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of food processing, in particular to a method for processing ginger. 2. Background Technology
[0002] Ginger's unique spicy taste and aroma make it an indispensable seasoning in cooking, which can enhance the flavor of dishes. It also has the effect of warming the body and dispelling cold. Eating it in moderation can help the body get rid of the cold, and it is especially suitable for consumption in cold seasons or when the body is cold. However, ginger is not easy to preserve and needs to be stored in a cold storage or cellar, otherwise it is easy to rot and deteriorate, and the storage cost is high. Therefore, it is imperative to invent a processing method that can make ginger easier to preserve and reduce costs. III. Summary of the invention
[0003] In view of the above situation, in order to solve the defects of the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a processing method for ginger, which can effectively solve the problems that ginger is not easy to preserve and needs to be stored in a heat-insulated warehouse or cellar at 10-18°C, and needs to be constantly turned over in the middle, which has high storage costs, is inconvenient to use, and is easy to rot and deteriorate.
[0004] The technical solution provided by the present invention is a ginger processing method, comprising the following steps:
[0005] 1) Sorting
[0006] Sort the ginger and select the ginger that is intact and not rotten or deteriorated for later use and wait for cleaning;
[0007] 2) Cleaning
[0008] Wash the ginger in water with a machine, leaving no dirt or impurities on the surface of the ginger, or use ultrasonic cleaning for 1-3 times, each time for 5-10 minutes, and then wait for crushing;
[0009] 3) Crushing
[0010] Crush the ginger for 2-3 minutes to make it into particles with a diameter of 1-10mm, and wait for dehydration;
[0011] 4) Dehydration
[0012] Dehydrating the crushed ginger particles, so that the moisture content of the ginger product is below 10-15% after dehydration;
[0013] 5) Flour milling
[0014] The dehydrated ginger particles are pressed into fine powder, the powder particles are controlled to be less than 200μm, and the qualified ones are sent for sterilization and disinfection;
[0015] 6) Sterilization
[0016] Put the sieved powder into an oven, dry it at 75-85℃ for 1-2 hours for sterilization, and disinfect it by ultraviolet irradiation for 20-30 minutes;
[0017] 7) Packaging
[0018] The qualified ginger powder is aseptically packaged.
[0019] In the step 2), the ultrasonic parameters are: frequency 20kHz-80kHz, temperature 30℃-60℃, power 100W-400W.
[0020] In the step 3), a pulverizer is used for pulverizing.
[0021] In the step 4), the dehydration treatment is to put the dried product into a drying chamber, and the drying temperature is first controlled at 20°C-30°C, and then gradually increased, but not exceeding 45°C, until the moisture content of the dried product is less than 15%.
[0022] In the step 4), the dehydration treatment is carried out by drying in the sun, where the ginger particles are spread out on a drying net on a clean site or directly placed on the site, and dried by natural wind or in the sun, and the moisture content is controlled to be below 15%.
[0023] In the step 5), the ginger particles are ground using a grinding machine.
[0024] In the step 5), the fine powder is passed through a 60-80 mesh sieve, and the particles that do not pass through can be further ground and then sieved.
[0025] The processing method of the present invention can preserve ginger for a long time, save storage cost, and keep fresh and quality. It effectively solves the problem that ginger in the prior art is not easy to preserve and needs to be stored in a cold storage or cellar, otherwise it is easy to rot and deteriorate, and the storage cost is high. It avoids waste of resources, is an innovation in the processing method of ginger, and has good economic and social benefits. 4. Specific implementation methods
