Study on a Combination Drying Technique of Shrimp

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to develop a highly efficient drying technique for shrimp, a combination of air drying (AD) and vacuum freeze drying (FD) is examined. The drying rate of combination drying, the shrinkage, rehydration ratio, and sensory properties, such as the color and trimness, of the dried product in the AD–FD method are measured. Compared with FD, the combined process consumes less drying time, compared with AD drying alone. Also the product processed by combined drying displays lower shrinkage, higher rehydration rate and better sensory qualities.
