The present invention discloses a method for preparing broccoli sprout
powder rich in
glucoraphanin and
sulforaphane, belonging to the field of
food processing. The broccoli sprout
powder preparation method comprises the following steps: screening broccoli seeds, washing, disinfecting, and soaking them, then placing them on a tray lined with
filter paper. At an ambient temperature of 25-27°C, the seeds are first germinated with
distilled water for 1-2 days, then sprayed with a
sucrose solution every 8-12 hours, and allowed to germinate under natural light. The sprouts are harvested after
germination for 4-7 days. The harvested sprouts are first steamed, immediately cooled to
room temperature, and then soaked in a
zinc sulfate solution. After removal and
grinding, the pulp is placed in 2 volumes of
distilled water and hydrolyzed with
endogenous enzymes at 35-40°C. The hydrolyzed
broccoli sprouts are freeze-dried and pulverized to obtain the broccoli sprout
powder. This broccoli sprout powder is rich in
glucoraphanin and
sulforaphane and has high nutritional value.
