Type of article: Article

Summary

The article deals with the behaviour of ascorbic acid and reducing sugars during the freezing of raw fried potatoes, and the ensuing blanching. The thickness of the frozen potato layer and the position in the potato strip are important as well as blanching time and mass transfer coefficient of the ascorbic acid.
