how to dehydrate cabbage?

Cabbage, also known as cabbage. Also known as cabbage, cabbage, lotus white, etc., it is called big head cabbage in the north. Cabbage generally has green leaves, smooth surface, thick flesh, and a flattened spherical shape. Cabbage has the characteristics of cold resistance, disease resistance, and strong adaptability, so it is generally distributed in northern China and is one of the main vegetables in spring, summer, and autumn.

Traditional drying methods:
With the diversification of the current market, vegetables are often made into dried vegetables to meet market demand. Dried vegetables are dried to remove moisture from vegetables, making it easier to package, store, and transport after drying. The traditional method of drying vegetables is to use the method of heating the oven through the fire path, but this method is time-consuming and difficult to control the temperature, which can easily lead to the loss of nutrients. In short, the traditional drying method is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and not environmentally friendly. The modern mainstream drying method - heat pump air drying - can precisely solve such problems. Air heat pump drying is energy-saving and efficient, can effectively utilize resources, achieve maximum value of drying products, have wide applicability, and low operating costs, making it the best choice for businesses.

Cabbage drying process:
Since vegetable heat pump dryer is so popular for drying, let's learn about the drying process of cabbage together.
Firstly, select undamaged cabbage, then pick it and cut it in half. Remove the cabbage and wash it, then cut it into small pieces.
Secondly, blanch the cut vegetables in a boiling water pot for 3 minutes, remove surface moisture with a centrifuge, and let them stand for about 40 minutes.
Then, lay the vegetables flat on a material tray and gradually dry them at a low temperature, ranging from 60 degrees Celsius to 55 degrees Celsius and then to 50 degrees Celsius, to prevent excessive temperature from damaging the nutrients.
Finally, the moisture content after drying should be controlled below 6%, and the packaging can be taken out and left to stand.

Advantages of Cabbage Drying:
Now let's introduce the advantages of a cabbage heat pump air dryer:
1. Flexible and convenient installation and disassembly: Installation and disassembly are not limited by space, and can be freely selected indoors or outdoors!
2. Safe and reassuring operation process: The entire operation system has no potential hazards such as flammability, explosion, and poisoning that may exist in traditional dryers (fuel, gas, or electric heating), and is a safe and reliable semi enclosed drying system.
3. High degree of automation and intelligence: The entire operation adopts a self-control constant temperature device, and continuous drying operation is carried out 24 hours a day.
4. Energy conservation and environmental protection: Compared with coal, oil, and gas, it can save about 75% of operating costs. No combustion or emissions are generated during operation.
5. Adopting multi temperature zone layered temperature control: adjustable speed and automatic control, the roasted cabbage has a bright color and full tissue.
6. Wide application range: The Zhengxu cabbage dryer can also be widely used in other vegetables, with multiple uses.
7. Long service life and low maintenance costs.
