Influence of post harvest processing conditions on yield and quality of ground turmeric (Curcuma longa L.)

Abstract: Studies were carried out to evaluate the influence of post harvest processing conditions on yield and quality of ground turmeric. Rhizomes were peeled, cooked (autoclave or immersion) in water or alkaline media, sliced, dehydrated, ground, sieved, packaged in polyethylene bags and stored for 60 days at room temperature. Yields ranged from 9.84 to 14.51 g of powder/100 g of rhizome with moisture varying from 8.84 to 9.86 g/100 g. Peel removal caused 30% mass loss but the powder obtained had higher intensity of … Show more

“…The yield of turmeric deodorized by the Clevenger method was signiWcantly lower than the yield of the control sample. However, it was similar to values reported by Bambirra et al (2002). It was also signiWcantly higher than values obtained by Martins (1993) and by Manzan et al (2003) for puriWed curcuminoid pigment that has been used as colorant for food products in which the pungent Xavor of turmeric is undesirable.…”

“…A sample (500 g) was blanched in 3 L boiling water for 10 min, sliced (2.25 £ 55.30 mm) and dried in a forced air oven at 60 § 3°C, ground and sieved through a number 42 Tyler sieve (Bambirra, Junqueira, & Glória, 2002). A non-deodorized sample was used as a control.…”

“…Os resultados apontaram que a primeira alternativa de tratamento, que é a mais simples de todas, resultou no maior tempo de secagem, na maior umidade adquirida durante a estocagem e na maior perda de pigmento. Para o experimento realizado neste trabalho, os rizomas de açafrão não sofreram nenhum tipo de tratamento térmico pré-secagem, seguindo o mesmo procedimento adotado por Bambirra et al (2002), mas diferindo nas formas geométricas do corte.…”
