Summary
The experimental material was comminuted to single roses of 9 g weight and blanched at temperature 60-98 °C in aqueous solution of NaCl, CaCl2, citric acid, then cooled by ice water with additive of NaCl, CaCl2 and vitamin C. The material was frozen in glycol at temperature from -20 to -45 °C, in air from -10 to -80 °C and in liquid nitrogen at -196 °C loose and vacuum packed to obtain the freezing curves. Thawing in air was carried out at temperature at 17-20 °C and in water (vacuum packed samples) at 20-30 °C. It was found that freezing in the liquid warrants best maintenance of structure and colour, whereas vacuum package reduces material loss.
