Freeze Dried Carrot Powder

What Is Freeze Dried carrot powder?

Freeze Dried carrot powder is from fresh carrot. Guanjie Biotech use a drying method to keep the material from spoiling and deteriorating. Freeze drying is also known as lyophilization or cryodesiccation. It is a dehydrating process that uses sublimation of a frozen material to remove water molecules in the product. It is an innovative and beneficial product in the food industry due to its easy storage requirements and the concentrated taste, texture, and aroma of the original carrot product.

Freeze dried carrot powder and its deep-processed products are very popular. Freeze-dried fruit powder has many advantages. It uses freeze dryer vacuum pump low-temperature drying method. Firstly, the carrots are cut into uniform small pieces or thin slices and blanched for a short time to maintain the colour and texture. Next, the treated carrots are quickly frozen below -30°C to freeze the internal moisture. Finally, the quick-frozen carrots were placed in a vacuum freeze dryer. The ice crystals are removed by sublimation and the finished product is dried.

Flow Chart

The production of freeze dried carrot powder involves a drying process. Water is extracted from solid or liquid foodstuffs in a partial vacuum at temperatures below the triple-phase point to prevent reactions due to heat. Four steps are required to produce carrot powder.

● The first step consists of selecting and preparing the carrots by washing and cleaning them before making sure that they are free of moisture and contaminants.
●The second step is the freezing of the carrots, which must occur as quickly as possible in order to preserve their nutritional value and to reduce the size of their cells, thus making them easier to dehydrate in the following step.
● The third step consists of the dehydration or lyophilization of the carrot pieces while controlling their temperature, the pressure of the vacuum, and the rate of dehydration in an appropriate regulation chamber.
● The fourth and final step consists of grinding the freeze-dried carrots into a powder, after which the Freeze Dried Carrot Powder is packaged for retail sale or for industrial applications.

 

Processing step

1. Peel fresh carrots and cut them into slices with a thickness of 3 ~ 15mm.

2. Wash the carrot slices with pure water and put them in 8(T10) hot water for 3 ~ 8min.

3. Lay the blanched carrot slices on a flat plate with a thickness of no more than 25mm, and put the carrot slices into a drying container;

The drying container is a petri dish, crisper or aluminum tray;

4. Put the drying container with carrot slices into a hot air drying oven for drying. The drying process is controlled at a temperature of 6(T90°C) for 40 ~ 60min.

5. Immediately after the hot air drying, pre-freeze the drying container with carrot slices at the pre-freezing temperature of -4(T-70°C) and the pre-freezing time of 16-20h;

6. Put the pre-frozen carrot slices in a vacuum freeze dryer for drying at -50°C and 24h to get freeze dried carrot powder crisp slices.

7. Immediately after the above vacuum freeze-drying, package the obtained freeze-dried carrot chips.

8. Further, the invention relates to a preparation method.

According to the mechanism of preventing Browning and the characteristics in the process of water loss, blanching treatment is adopted in advance, and blanching pretreatment can effectively prevent enzymatic Browning and greatly retain the original color.

 

9.The beneficial effect of the invention is that the processing method of adopts steam cleaning, sterilization by high temperature steam while cleaning, softening raw materials at the same time.

After the cleaning and sterilization is completed, the temperature of the cleaning room is reduced. Freeze Dried Carrot Powder can not only prevent high-temperature raw materials from contacting with the outside world and oxidation, but also prevent the secondary pollution of sterilized raw materials, eliminating the process of blanching and color protection after the original disinfection and then cooling and draining, but instead direct spray cooling, which not only saves costs, but also ensures the health of raw materials.

 

Application:

Freeze dry carrot powder has various applications and is used in different industries. One of the main and most know applications is as an additive or as an ingredient in food products and as a food coloring. It can also be used to give flavor to food and enhance its nutritional value. It can be added to drinks, either hot or cold, to make them more enjoyable or to change their color. It is also often used as a vegetarian alternative to beef or chicken in certain recipes.
