Effects of microwave blanching conditions on the quality of green asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.) butt segment. [PDF]
AbstractBlanching is a pretreatment method that is often applied in fruit and vegetable processing to inhibit enzyme activity and reduce loss of food quality. It was recently discovered that well‐controlled microwave volumetric heating could improve the blanching efficiency and retain nutritional and sensorial values of product.
