Fruit and vegetables: the quality of raw material in relation to freezing.

Author(s) : MAESTRELLI A.

Type of excerpt: Book chapter

Summary

The paper highlights the fact that the quality indices for fruits or vegetables are not the same for products to be frozen and for fresh markets, since freezing can possibly affect certain characteristics of the product. Most important is the selection of the best cultivars, based on agronomic, technological, organoleptic and nutritional factors, which can be measured with "quality indices".
