How is Lee embryo processed?

Lee embryo is a semi-finished salt embryo. Its processing technology is related to plum tissue structure, and is different from that of plum or mango. There is a layer of wax on the surface of the plum fruit, which should be taken into account when salting. The processing technology is as follows: 1. Raw material processing: After the harvest, the fresh plum fruit is firstly subjected to a “skinning” process. In the past, coarse-salt was added to the peeling machine to achieve the purpose of skinning by rotating the wooden barrel or using a grinding wheel to peel the skin. The surface is wounded, and even a nailed plank allows the plum to roll on it. If the skin is damaged to a certain extent, the purpose of accelerating the penetration of salt into the flesh can be achieved. 2. Marinated: If the ripeness is low after picking, if the ripeness is low, the flavor is not good, such as with bitter astringency. When pickling, brine should be used for marinating. Prepare 8% concentration, that is, 50 kg of water add 4 kg of salt, in the cylinder, Add plums to the pond for marinating so that the plums are added to the salt water, which is about 30% of the total weight of the raw materials. After more than ten days of marinating, the bitter taste is decomposed due to the lower concentration of salt water for lactic acid fermentation, the fruit volume shrinks, and the salt enters the interior of the pulp. After about two weeks, the raw materials can be picked up for exposure or desalination and further processed to form other foods. For Li Guo, who is generally mature and normal in flavor, due to the limited production capacity of the processing plant, in order to extend the processing period, the fresh raw materials must also be processed into semi-finished products, which are prepared by dry salting. The first is to have Lee after the skin-penetration. If the amount of salt used is 20-25%, it is the same as the processing of the Mei embryo. A layer of fruit is layered with salt, and it should be compacted. Add stones to make the salt fully mixed with the plums. After 3-4 weeks of pickling, Lee embryos were removed from salt water and exposed. 3. Exposure: Currently processed at the place of origin, due to exposure to violent sunlight in 768 months, spreading on the ground or using sunscreen to dress in the sun, until the surface of the raw material appears salt frost, it takes about 5- 7 days. 4. Rejuvenation: The product is folded and covered in order to balance the water. 5, re-sun: Water content of 20% -22% is qualified. Lee embryo preservation, packaging should be sealed, the environment should be dry, so as to avoid salt moisture absorption, reduce the storage period of semi-finished products, so use plastic bags to seal the packaging. There is no problem in the normal period of six months to one year.
