Abstract:Hot air drying (HAD), freeze drying (FD), and microwave drying (MD) pretreatments were applied under different conditions to determine the effect of the pre-drying methods on the explosive puffing drying (EPD) of beef samples. All samples were pre-dried up to 30%, 40%, and 50% moisture contents (wb), and three different predrying conditions were treated (60-75-90 C for HAD, 0.1-0.15-0.2 mbar for FD, and 180-360-540 W for MD), and EPD was applied at constant conditions until the final moisture content.
