PUFFING CHARACTERSTICS OF BERRY FRUIT LEATHER UNDER MICROWAVE VACUUM CONDITIONS
In order to clarify the influencing mechanism of independent variables in terms of the microwave power,vacuum degree,initial moisture content and puffing time on the objective indexes,in terms of moisture ratio and expansion ratio,a series of single factor experiments were performed during microwave vacuum puffing raspberry leathers.The results show that microwave power,vacuum,and initial moisture content have significant influences on the dehydration of final raspberry snacks in terms of expansion ratio,hardness,and porosity.The change of both moisture and volume obey Sigmoid function as microwave power,vacuum pressure and initial moisture content,respectively.Both microwave power and initial moisture content have positive influences up to the certain value followed by negative trends on the puffing kinetic,with the exception of insignificance of vacuum pressure in selected range of 15-45 kPa.
