Process for the complex processing and preservation of alimentary plants, particularly seasonal alimentary plants

摘要

The invention relates to a process for the complex processing and preservation of alimentary plants, mainly seasonal alimentary plants. The process according to the invention comprises--depending on the type of the plant--purifying and, if desired, crushing the plant, digesting it, adjusting it to other alcohol content of 15 to 45% by volume by adding ethanol before or after separation of the solid part, letting it stand for at least 3 weeks, then separating the solid and liquid phases, storing the liquid phase for an optional time, if desired absorbing carbon dioxide or in inert gas in the material to be fed in, then after pre-heating the liquid to a temperature between 50° and 100° C., distilling the alcohol from it by flash distillation under a pressure of 6.4-26.6 kPa, at a temperature of 40° to 80° C. by using both during the pre-heatment and distillation a dynamical carbon dioxide or other inert gas atmosphere and preparing a drinking juice under sterile conditions from the product of low alcohol content obtained as bottom product or subjecting it to an other processing method commonly used in the food industry known per se; and processing the alcoholic fraction obtained as head product to a liquor in a known way, or utilizing it for flavoring food products, or recyclizing it to the process, and, if desired, utilizing the solid material obtained in the separation before storage for a food industrial purpose after drying it in a known manner.
