Lemon's Proud Memory

榴莲飘香的季节

光阴似箭，日月如梭，众人所期待的一年一度榴莲飘香的季节终于像乡村姑娘般徐徐而临。前些日子，果园叔叔们忙得不可开交，连续不断地将榴莲运载到城市的各个角落。水果店的商人们也迎着它们的来临，将一箩箩的榴莲摆放到店里。

顿时，城市不知不觉地热闹起来。冷冷清清的街道开始门庭若市，盼望着吃榴莲的人们人山人海，拥挤得水泄不通。大街小巷都挤满了黑压压的人头，看来榴莲的吸引力可真不小。一些水果摊的叔叔将榴莲堆积在地上，榴莲香味顿时浓厚地扑鼻而来。

Blanching

Blanching is a heat treatment process generally applied to fruits and vegetables prior to freesing, drying or canning.

Blanching is primarily carried out to inactivate enzymes before freezing or dehydration.

In plant tissues, enzymes such as lipoxygenase and polyphenol oxidase cause loss of nutrition, flavor and texture.

Peroxidase and catalase are two of the most heat resistant and widely distribute enzymes. Although they are not the cause of deterioration during storage, their activity is used to evaluate the effectiveness of blanching.

In commercial blanching, the blanching time in boiling water at 100C varies from 1.5 to 4 min.

The two most common method used commercial methods are passing food through atmosphere of saturated steam or bath of hot water.

The cooling stage may result greater loss of product or nutrients than blanching stage.
