QUALITY OF PRECOOKED VACUUM‐PACKED POTATOES (Solanum tuberosum L.) IN RELATION TO COOKING METHODS AND OXYGEN PERMEABILITY OF THE PACKAGING MATERIAL

Abstract: Precooked vacuum-packed potatoes are widely used in catering. The influence of different processing temperatures on texture kinetics of water and steam cooked vacuum-packed potatoes was studied. At temperatures above 90C the initial decline in cohesion of steam cooked vacuum-packed potatoes was followed by an increase in cohesion when processed for more than 30 min. Preheating of vacuum-packed potatoes at 70C and 75C increased their cohesion and thereby jirmness.Steam cooked vacuum-packed potatoes processed in… Show more

“…Numerous reports of the effect of cooking on potato vitamin C have been published, with a majority reporting losses, with some reporting between 10 and 20% and others up to 70-80% (Love and Pavek 2008). However, others reported only modest losses of ascorbic acid unless the potatoes were overcooked (Burg and Fraile 1995) and little or no lose during steaming (Thybo and Christiansen 1996). One report suggested loses during boiling are due to leaching, not thermal degradation (Garrote et al 1986), or that the loss of potato vitamin C during several types of cooking was due to enzymatic degradation, not thermal (Burg and Fraile 1995).…”

“…In addition to being adapted to large scale use, the preprocessed potatoes appear to have a higher nutritional value, as water soluble nutrients cannot escape into the cooking-water. The product also has a firmer texture (Thybo and Christiansen, 1996). The change in firmness is known to depend on cultivar, cooking time and method.…”

“…The real temperature inside of potatoes throughout the process was 65 C and it was determined by a termocouple. These temperatures, as suggested by Thibo and Christiansen (1996) and Abu-Ghannam and Crowley (2006) produced minimal texture degradation during blanching. After blanching, the potato slices were cooled for 10 min at 20 C in distilled water.…”
