Minimal processing and modified-atmosphere packaging of vegetables.
Author(s) : AHVENAINEN R., HURME E., MATTILA M.
Summary
The shelf-life of minimally processed vegetables is very limited. Methods for improving the shelf life of minimally processed fresh prepared vegetables intended for catering purposes and retail shops are discussed on a general level. The key requirements in the processing are raw material of good quality, strict hygiene and good manufacturing practices, low temperatures during working and storage, gentle peeling, careful washing before and after peeling, proper additives and suitable packaging materials and methods.
