Abstract

PURPOSE:To readily produce dried SHIITAKE mushrooms having unique flavor in a short time while holding healthy effective substances, by heating raw SHIITAKE mushrooms under reduced pressure with microwaves, dehydrating and drying the heated SHIITAKE mushrooms below a specific temperature. CONSTITUTION:Raw SHIITAKE mushrooms are heated microwaves under reduced pressure, dehydrated and dried under temperature condition of <=35 deg.C. Temperature condition of such a low holding temperature as to freeze contained moisture is not preferred as the above-mentioned dehydrating and drying temperature since the drying rate is remarkably reduced. As a result, the dehydrating and drying are preferably carried out within a temperature region not to freeze the contained moisture. The practically preferred lower limit temperature is about 5 deg.C. Combination of vacuum condition under <=60Torr and microwave irradiation for giving moderate internal heating is adopted as a preferred means. The microwaves used are within the range of, e.g. 300-30,000MHz, but practically microwaves at about 900-3,000MHz are advantageous.

In addition, the dried product has a good aroma and is widely enjoyed as a food with good shelf life. Conventionally, such dried shiitake mushrooms are mostly produced by drying fresh shiitake mushrooms with hot air for a long period of time. In the hot air drying process, air at room temperature is first sent in, and as the drying progresses, the temperature of the air is gradually increased, and finally, the drying process is completed with hot air at a temperature of about 60°C. In this drying method, 1.
Continuous drying treatment for ~19 hours was required, and when processing operations before and after that were added, it was inevitable that the -cycle would require a long period of 24 hours.

Moreover, since the operations in the series of steps require skill,
It is extremely disadvantageous industrially, and such long-term heat drying thermally decomposes interferon-inducing substances and health-effective substances contained in fresh shiitake mushrooms, resulting in a decrease in quality and partial loss of fragrance. The traditional method of producing dried shiitake mushrooms, such as evaporation and weakening, is difficult in the food industry.

Furthermore, in the method of the present invention, in conjunction with maintaining the fresh shiitake mushrooms to be dried at such a relatively low temperature, a combination of vacuum conditions, e.g. Combination drying means are preferably employed. In vacuum drying, the lower the pressure, the more effective it is.

Even when changing the reduced pressure conditions and ultra-high frequency output conditions as described above as the water content in the shiitake mushrooms decreases, it is important to maintain the temperature of the shiitake mushrooms themselves below 35°C. A combination of operating conditions that satisfies the conditions is selected and adopted.

In the method of the present invention, it is preferable to irradiate the raw shiitake mushrooms with ultraviolet rays during the ultrashort wave heating drying operation under reduced pressure.
It is desirable that the irradiation be carried out continuously during the drying operation, but it may also be done intermittently or partially, and it is desirable that the irradiation be carried out so that the entire surface of the shiitake mushrooms being dried is evenly irradiated. This ultraviolet irradiation, combined with the action of ultrashort waves, can extremely effectively kill fungi and living creatures that adhere to the dried shiitake mushrooms, making it possible to obtain dried shiitake mushrooms that are desirable as preserved foods. Furthermore, according to the research conducted by the present inventors, it has been found that UV irradiation has the additional effect of producing vitamin D group in shiitake mushrooms.
