Combined osmotic dehydration and drying process of pirarucu (Arapaima gigas) fillets. [PDF]
J Food Sci Technol, 2017 The osmotic dehydration (OD) and complementary drying of pirarucu (Arapaima gigas) fillets were studied. Pieces of the dorsal portion of pirarucu (60 mm × 20 mm × 10 mm) underwent OD in a binary solution (NaCl-water) with the application of vacuum pulse following a central rotatable composite design.
