Summary

THE EFFECT OF PRETREATMENT ON THE QUALITY OF SAMPLES OF GREEN BEANS AND CARROTS FROZEN AND STORED AT 252 K (-21 DEG C) IS REPORTED. THE PROCESSES INCLUDED ARE BLANCHING, EVACUATION, VACUUM PACKAGING AND HEAT SHOCK. FOR GREEN BEANS HEAT SHOCK WAS BETTER FOR RETAINING COLOUR. EVACUATION AT 293 K (20 DEG C) BEFORE HEAT SHOCK GAVE THE BEST RESULTS (MORE THAN 70% RETENTION OF ASCORBIC ACID AND PEROXYDASE ACTIVITY). CARROTS, ALSO BETTER WITHOUT BLANCHING, WERE IMPROVED BY VACUUM PACKING.
