A sea of flowers and a spot of fire. In recent years, Huahai has constantly emerged all over the country. The 'Huahai Economy' has become the only magic weapon to boost popularity and increase the popularity of travel brands. Although more and more flowers are in bloom, It is necessary to solve the 'short-lived' dilemma. In addition to planting flowers seasonally, the deep-processing of edible flowers deepens the economic value of the flowers, the value of food, and medicinal efficacy.
'Huahai economy' has unlimited potential and quality needs food machine 'guard'
Before, I wrote a series of 'Flower Economy' articles, such as honeysuckle, lilies, roses, jasmine, jasmine flowers, cherry blossoms, chamomile, sweet-scented osmanthus, and so on. This has come to an end. Through the collection, organization, analysis, and understanding of relevant contents. To the flowers that were originally used only for appreciation, they can use food processing technology and equipment to not only increase the added value of the products, but also broaden the other economic value of flowers, and promote the development of edible flowers.
According to the author's understanding, at present, many edible flowers can process a variety of non-staple foods, such as rose cakes, rose wine, rose buns, rose oil, etc. Before, a canteen in a university in Yunnan put roses on the table to make fried roses. Rose stuffed buns, rose sauce and other 'net red dishes'.
Although the different food products processed by different edible flowers are different, they all have one thing in common and can be made into flower tea. With the increase in people's demand for health products, tea with different functions has been affected by many tea drinkers. Loved it.
We know that the tea in the market has a grade, which is superior or inferior. The pros and cons of the product not only affect the market price, but also have a certain influence on the quality and taste of the tea. This requires that the tea must be strictly controlled in the production process. Each process, to ensure the quality of the product. The author was informed that the general process of flower tea including raw material selection, silk flowers, flowers, backfire, jacquard, uniform heap, drying, packaging and other processes.
First of all, it is better to pick flowers when the flowers are in bloom. When picking back flowers, remove stalks, leaves, and other debris, and make them as soon as possible to ensure the quality of the materials. Afterwards, we learned from the previous article that many teas were All of them need to go through this process, and the process of tanning is to let the tea embryos absorb the floral fragrance. In addition, the tanning system is very particular about it. There are four to six mentions, six to ten, and nine to one.
It is understood that for the first time of flowering, 100 jins of tea should be used to match 30 ounces of sweet-scented osmanthus flowers. The second time the glutinous flower will be reduced to 30 jins and the third time to 25 jins. This will gradually reduce the amount of sweet-scented osmanthus. Flowers need about seven or eight pounds, mainly to allow tea to fully absorb the original fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus.
After flowering, there are still many links, but the most important one is the drying of flower tea. In the past, the processing of flower tea was mainly conducted by natural drying or artificial drying. However, natural drying is greatly affected by the weather. Continuous rainy weather, the collected flowers can not be dried in time, easy to mold deterioration. Compared with natural drying, artificial drying room drying quality has greatly improved, but this drying method takes a long time, the efficiency is not high, the product The color change is severe, and the aroma is easily lost, which ultimately affects the quality of the product.
However, with the rapid development of the food industry, there are a variety of drying equipment on the market today, such as belt dryers, microwave drying equipment, etc., tea processing companies can choose the right equipment according to process, quality requirements.
From a flower to a cup of tea, it takes a rigorous and complex processing process. At the same time, in many processes of flower tea, food processing machinery plays an important role, not only improving the production efficiency, but also guaranteeing the color of tea, aroma With quality.
