Abstract

The invention discloses a compound preservative for fresh-cut fruits and vegetables and a use method thereof and belongs to the technical field of processing of fruits and vegetables. The use method comprises the following steps: soaking fresh-cut fruits and vegetables for a short time using a compound soaking solution composed of ascorbic acid, cinnamon essential oil, beta-cyclodextrin and chitosan; and after air drying, performing spraying with compound gel of konjac glucomannan and carrageenan. The fresh-cut fruits and vegetables are treated by a secondary compound preservation technique, anatural slow-release bactericide, and a water retention agent and double protecting films are formed on the surfaces of the fruits and vegetables, thereby effectively protecting the surfaces of the fresh-cut fruits and vegetables and solving the problems of deterioration, dehydration, oxidation and the like in the preservation process of the fresh-cut fruits and vegetables.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fruit and vegetable processing, in particular to a composite preservative for fresh-cut fruits and vegetables and a method for using the same. Background technique [0002] Fresh-cut fruits and vegetables, also known as lightly processed fruits and vegetables, cut fruits and vegetables, and conditioned fruits and vegetables, originated in the United States in the 1950s, mainly to meet consumers' ready-to-eat needs. It refers to processed fruits and vegetables that are processed by consumers or the catering industry for immediate consumption after fresh fruits and vegetables are graded, cleaned, peeled, trimmed, cut, packaged, etc. Fresh-cut products first appeared in American retail stores, but their development was limited due to poor product quality and shelf life. However, with the rapid economic development and technological innovation in the United States, the fresh-cut industry began to break throug...
