  The dried flesh pieces of persimmon and raw pear, which are explained in the background art above, have gained popularity in the market, but the dried flesh pieces of figs have not yet been provided, and the applicant has received figs upon request from the market. We decided to develop a prototype piece of dried pulp. What I found after trying the prototype development is that the part of the fig that corresponds to the flower part is in the fruit, so insects such as bees enter from the hole in the hips of the fig during pollination. Insect carcass may remain inside like a puppet of insects inside, and if you simply divide and dry the figs for flow work, the carcass of this insect should Even if they exist, they may be dried without being noticed and mixed in the dried pulp pieces. In the present invention, a fig piece of dried pulp is prepared so that the insects are not mixed.

  In order to solve the above problems, the present invention peels off the surface of the fresh fig fruit after harvesting, and then slices and divides it radially from the upper surface of the raw fig fruit in the vertical direction to form a sachet of mandarin oranges. Formed into an approximate crescent-shaped piece of raw flesh, and the quality obtained by forming the sliced raw fig flesh piece by passing air or warm air to dry it into a thin dehydrated flesh piece that has been dehydrated The dried pulp pieces obtained have good color and gloss on the entire surface of the small pieces, including the cut surface, and as a tea confectionery by suppressing the generation of off-flavors and mold. It has good quality such as being able to eat, rich in sweetness, taste and storage, and dried into a thin-walled crescent shape that resembles the shape of a mandarin orange sachet. Are to those having Yawarakami the inside and outside of the dry pulp pieces moderately having elasticity, but are very good mouthfeel and can be eaten with rice crackers sense.

According to the above solution, the dried fig pieces obtained from the above-mentioned figs can be produced with good color at a low cost, and have good quality such as sweetness, taste and storage, and are in the form of a mandarin orange sachet. It is dried from a crescent shape that approximates the shape of a thin shape, and the dried pulp pieces are juicy and soft with moderate elasticity inside and outside, and can be eaten like a rice cracker and have a very texture It is excellent in that you can taste the sweetness in your mouth when you finish eating.
And since raw fruit is preserve | saved in a dried pulp piece, the taste of a desired fruit can be enjoyed off the season after the harvest period.

  Hereinafter, the production of a dried pulp product from the fruits of the harvested figs according to the present invention will be described. First, as a raw material, the raw fig fruit 1 in a suitable harvest time shown in FIG. 1 is used. First, as shown in FIG. 2, the skin 1b on the surface of the fruit of the raw fig 1 is peeled off to obtain a peeled raw fruit 1a. And, as shown in FIG. 3, by moving downward from the upper surface of the peeled raw fig fruit 1a using a split blade body (not shown) for splitting four of the commonly used fruit splitter. By slicing radially from the top surface of the raw fruit 1 in the longitudinal direction and dividing the pulp part into four pieces, a crescent-shaped raw fruit piece 1c approximating the shape of a mandarin orange sachet is formed. FIG. 4 shows another example of a crescent-shaped raw flesh piece 1d that approximates the shape of a mandarin orange sachet by dividing the flesh portion into eight pieces using a dividing blade for dividing into eight pieces. An embodiment is shown.

In this way, the peel 1b of the raw fig 1 is peeled (to make it hygienic) into a peeled raw fruit 1a. Then, it is divided and cut radially. As a result, it is possible to inspect the condition of pain and the presence of pests such as insects. At this time, the painful things are discarded, and if there are insects or other harmful insects, they are removed. Dividing can be performed by changing the divided blade body to a desired shape such as 3 equal cut, 4 equal cut, 5 equal cut, 6 equal cut, 7 equal cut, 8 equal cut, 12 equal cut, etc. Can be divided and processed.
By dividing, the fig can be formed into a thin piece of dried pulp, which can be easily eaten, the color of the fruit can be confirmed, and the original color of the fig can be shown. There are advantages such as.

Next, the freshly sliced raw meat pieces 1c (1d), ventilated in a shelf shape so that they can be inserted and removed by an artificial insertion / extraction operation into and out of the drying chamber and drying chamber of the dryer as shown in FIG. Are placed and arranged on a drying tray 2 with a net 2a. (The arrangement is illustrated in FIG. 5.)
The drying trays 2 on which the raw flesh pieces 1c (1d) are placed and arranged are set in multiple stages in the drying chamber of the dryer shown in FIG. 6, the doors of the dryer are closed, and the drying time, ventilation, warm air Change the drying, set the drying temperature and perform the drying operation. As the dryer, for example, a dryer that can be arbitrarily set in a range from room temperature to 120 degrees Celsius is used.

  The fig flesh 1c (1d) sliced vertically as described above is dried by applying ventilation and warm air, and as shown in FIG. 3 or FIG. As shown in FIG. 7, (1d) is a raw crucible-shaped dried flesh piece 1 e that is formed in a crescent shape that approximates the shape of a mandarin orange sachet. The obtained dried pulp piece 1e has good color gloss on the entire surface of the small piece including the cut surface in a state where the appearance color maintains the original granular form and the red texture, and has a strange smell and mold. By suppressing the occurrence, it can be eaten as tea confectionery, etc., and it has good quality such as rich sweetness, taste and storage, and the finished sliced dried pulp piece is a mandarin sachet Since the crescent-shaped shape that approximates the shape is condensed, the inside and outside of the dried flesh pieces are soft with moderate elasticity, and it is convenient to eat as a rice cracker. It has a very good texture.

Further, in the drying step, the divided raw pulp pieces 1c (1d) are dried by applying ventilation and hot air to the drying tray net shelf of the dryer and drying them by ventilation and hot air. It is possible to carry out ventilation and warm air drying hygienically while preventing the infestation of pests by a simple and inexpensive method.

Incidentally, in the embodiment tested by the applicant of the present utility model registration, it is dried at 42 ° C. for about 18 hours using a dryer, and is formed into a dried pulp piece while confirming the color and drying condition. The moisture content of water is about 80 to 85% in the state of fresh fruits, but when it is dried, it becomes about 15 to 20%. The koji used in the test is a cultivar having a high sugar content among the cultivars of FIG. It is easy to eat because it is peeled and cut into bite sizes. Fresh figs are sliced radially and then dried and dried to condense the original taste of figs and enjoy a rich taste. The expiration date is 4 months. With regard to preservability, it is possible to infer from the water activity value whether or not the growth of spoilage, microbial growth, fermentation, mold, etc. is activated by measuring the water activity of the food using a water activity value testing device. it can.
When the dried fruit pieces of the fig of the present invention were measured, the water activity values were 0.475, 0.568, and 0.581. In general, if the water activity value is 0.60 or less, it is said in the food field that growth of microorganisms, mold, etc. will not occur, and since it has been introduced in literatures, However, the water activity value is less than the reference value, and there is no problem with the storage stability by vacuum packaging.
