Summary

Blanching inactivated the enzyme; there was no regeneration for 12 months at -22 deg C, but a slight regeneration at -18 deg C. Sensory quality of the properly stored product was acceptable 1 year or longer. Storage in a display freezer over 60 days did not affect peroxidase activity. Temperature fluctuations were deleterious for sensory quality and total peroxidase activity was only slightly regenerated.
