Fingered citron all-fruit dry product and preparation method thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to a fingered citron all-fruit dry product and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the steps of cleaning the fresh fingered citron all-fruit, and putting the cleaned fingered citron all-fruit into an ultraviolet drying oven, wherein the ultraviolet drying oven has sunlight for irradiating the fingered citron all-fruit, is provided with an ultraviolet lamp used for supplementing ultraviolet light, is provided with a heating and temperature control device used for guaranteeing temperature constancy, and is provided with an air blow and ventilation device used for discharging moisture so as to enable the air to be dry; continuously drying at the proper temperature under the irradiation of an ultraviolet sterilizing lamp to finally obtain the fingered citron all-fruit dry product. The method is also suitable for sterile drying of various products derived from animals, plants and funguses.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a dried plant fruit product and a production method thereof, in particular to a dried bergamot whole fruit product and a production method thereof. Background technique [0002] Bergamot, also known as nine-claw wood, five-finger orange, and bergamot, is an evergreen small tree of Rutaceae, mainly produced in Fujian, Guangdong, Sichuan, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other provinces. Among them, Zhejiang Jinhua Bergamot is the most famous, has high ornamental value, and has precious medicinal value and economic value. Bergamot fresh fruit is not resistant to storage and is easy to rot and deteriorate. Dried bergamot is obtained after dehydration and drying by a special method, which can be stored for a long time. [0003] The usual drying method is to slice the bergamot and then expose to the sun or heat and dry to obtain the dried bergamot slices. Such drying method has the following disadvantages: (1) the integrity of the fruit is ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Such drying method has the following disadvantages: (1) the integrity of the fruit is destroyed after bergamot is sliced, and the ornamental value of the natural shape is lost; It is easy to oxidize when exposed to air for a long time; (3) the sun exposure method cannot guarantee all-weather drying at night and in rainy weather conditions. During the interval between two exposures, due to the appropriate temperature and humidity, it is easy to breed fungi and bacteria, causing rot; (4) outdoor Sun exposure requires high air cleanliness, and we must try to prevent pests from affecting the quality of dry products; (5) The heating and drying method loses the ultraviolet radiation in the sun, making it difficult to disinfect and sterilize, and the product is still easy to rot; (6) The heating and drying method Forgo the free solar energy and ultraviolet rays in the sun, high energy costs

[0005] At present, there is no cheap, sterile, controllable method for making dried bergamot fruits that combines technologies such as ultraviolet disinfection and sterilization, sun exposure, heating and drying.
