Study on the key technology of sweet and waxy fresh corn retaining processing
In order to prolong and maintain the nutritional composition and taste of the sweet and waxy fresh corn to the maximum extent,the corn processing technology was studied.Firstly,the processing requirement of retaining 2 to 4 inner leaves of bracts was determined.Secondly,taking Jinuo 173 sweet and waxy fresh corn as the research object,the covering state of fresh corn bracts and the growth distribution law on the stalk were grasped,and the processing technology of removing the outer bracts by positioning and cutting the outer bracts and using the difference in the adhesion of the inner and outer bracts was proposed.Then,based on the experiment of external shape and size measurement of fresh corn,a ring positioning structure was designed and the equipment of removing bracts was built.Finally,the proposed processing technology was verified by reasonable layer retention test.The results show that 2 to 4 leaves of bracts could be retained reasonably in the corn treated by the positioning ring first,and then by the bracteating equipment.The parameters of the positioning ring were 53 mm in the large inner diameter,41 mm in the small inner diameter,8 mm in the contact area,2 mm in the protected area and 2.5 mm in thickness.The processing technology of positioning and cutting before removing the outer bracts is reasonable and feasible,which can realize the processing goal of retaining the inner bracts reasonably for sweet and waxy fresh corn.The process of fresh corn bracts retention can provide reference for the design and improvement of sweet and waxy fresh corn bracts retention processing line.
