[Distribute high quality mangoes! ] New frozen processing of mangoes using rapid freezing!

Estimated reading time: 3 minutes 00 seconds

I believe that many companies use frozen processing when distributing mangoes.

However, aren't you worried about the taste and texture being lost by freezing?

In this article, for those who have these problems, we will introduce how to freeze mangoes using rapid freezer.

Using the latest refrigeration technology, we will be able to supply mangoes of far higher quality than ever before.

Since the mangoes are as delicious as freshly harvested mangoes, it may be possible to create new branding.

Please read this book if you are a business that has issues with mango processing or would like to improve quality.

Issues related to mango processing

Difficult to maintain constant ripeness

When it comes to distributing mangoes, the most ideal condition is to be able to distribute freshly harvested, ripe mangoes.

When stored at room temperature, mangoes will continue to ripen, so it is common to harvest them before they reach full ripeness and let them ripen after being distributed to households, retailers, restaurants, etc.

However, if you store it for too long, the ripening process will cause it to become overripe and no longer delicious.
Therefore, great care must be taken when storing it.

Additionally, refrigerating can prevent overripening, but if you store the mango at temperatures below 7 degrees Celsius, the mango will suffer from low-temperature damage, which will cause the surface to turn black and the flavor to deteriorate.

For these reasons, it can be said that it is difficult to preserve and distribute while maintaining a constant state of ripeness.

If you freeze it, it will lose its texture.

However, by freezing it, it is possible to distribute it while maintaining a constant level of ripeness.

In a frozen state, it can be stored without causing low-temperature damage, making it much easier for customers to handle it.

At first glance, freezing processing seems ideal, but it presents major challenges.
The problem is that frozen mangoes lose quality when thawed.

This is because the mango's cells get pulverized during the freezing process.
Therefore, when the fruit is thawed, the umami components turn into liquid and flow out, which deteriorates the texture of the fruit.

There are also articles that go into more detail about this phenomenon, so if you would like to know more, please see the following:

In this way, freezing preserves food to maintain a certain level of ripeness and makes it easier to store, but it can be said that the quality deteriorates.

Therefore, the reality is that frozen mangoes are rarely available as fresh fruits, such as being used as frozen mangoes in a semi-thawed state or as puree.

However, this situation can be resolved by installing rapid freezer!

What is rapid freezer?

First, I will briefly explain the principle of rapid freezer, including how it is possible to preserve the deliciousness of food rapid freezer.

rapid freezer is a machine that can freeze food without destroying the cells.
By reducing the amount of time it takes to freeze food, most cells can be frozen without being damaged.

Cell changes

As you can see, you can see that the state of the cells is completely different between food that has been rapid freezing and food that has been frozen in a regular freezer.

Because the cells are not damaged, the umami components do not flow out, making it possible to freeze food that maintains almost the same quality as fresh food.

Benefits of introducing rapid freezer

Let's take a closer look at the benefits of rapid freezer.

As mentioned above, when freezing using rapid freezer, the mango cells can be frozen in a clean state, so when the mango is thawed, it retains its characteristic sweet and sour yet rich flavor. Don't miss out on that.
The texture is almost the same as raw, and it retains a strong fruit flavor.

In addition, until now, in order to eat freshly-picked ripe mangoes as raw fruit, farmers had to harvest the mangoes in a fully ripe state and eat them rapid freezer. If ripe mangoes are harvested and frozen immediately, distribution to remote areas and long-term storage are possible.

In other words, even though the mangoes are the same as the mangoes that have been distributed up until now, it is now possible to widely distribute mangoes of overwhelmingly high quality just by using different processing methods.

Considering that costs will remain the same, but sales will increase due to high quality mangoes, there is no doubt that profits will increase as well.

This is an opportunity to distribute delicious frozen mangoes that have never been possible before.

Conclusion

What did you think.

As explained above, rapid freezer makes it possible to freeze mangoes while preserving their freshly harvested taste.

This is a delicious mango. Distributing food while preserving its deliciousness will make everyone happy, including producers, consumers, and distributors.

In recent years, more and more manufacturers of mangoes are installing rapid freezer.
If you have not yet adopted it, why not consider it?
