Research on the Process of Making Jelly from Pomelo Peel
This study used fresh pomelo peel as raw material and conducted a single factor experiment to investigate the effects of different amounts of white sugar,citric acid,and composite gum on the quality of pomelo peel jelly.The results showed that the optimal formula for pomelo peel jelly was 18%white sugar,0.1%citric acid,and 5%composite gum(carrageenan∶konjac gum=4∶1).The pomelo peel jelly produced using this formula had a complete appearance,elasticity,smooth and delicate taste,moderate acidity and sweetness,a light yellow color,and a unique pomelo flavor.
