PRODUCTION OF RAW SWEET JAM OF GROUNDNUTS

摘要

PURPOSE:To obtain raw groundnut jam by dipping the peas of groundut in an aqueous solution of weak basic compound, then soaking in water to remove the leachate, then boiling together with water, squeezing, filtering through a mesh and exposing the jam slurry to water repeatedly, then separating and dehydrating the jam. CONSTITUTION:Selected raw groundnuts peas are dipped in an aqueous solution of a basic compound such as sodium hydrogen carbonate for 9 to 10 hours. The weak base aqueous solution is discarded, the remaining groundnut peas are rinsed with water and soaked in water, then viscous leachate is discarded. After soaking, the peas are thoroughly drained. Then, the peas are boiled with water. Boiled peas are squeezed in a fine mesh shieve and filtered to give the pea jam slurry. The slurry is exposed to water several time, the water phase is discarded to separate the pea sweat jam. The concentrated jam slurry is dehydrated by squeezing the jam slurry through bags to give a raw pea nut jam.
