The main raw material (to produce 50 kilograms of finished product): apricot 175 kg to 180 kg, sugar 30 kg to 32.5 kg.
The color of the fruit used in the selection and pre-processing of apricot pods should be golden yellow, and the fruits are easy to leave the nucleus, the meat is delicate, full of toughness, and the storability, and the fruit is intact and free from pests and diseases after maturity. After the fruit is picked, it is split along the line and washed. However, green apricots produced from Qingmei were impregnated with 15% salt water for 3 days, and the pulp was separated from the nucleus. The core was pressed out with a plate, cut, and the salts were rinsed with fresh water for later use.
The sulphur-treated fruit after the above-mentioned treatment is subjected to sulphur treatment.
Cooking and impregnation Because of the high water content in apricot and the dense cell structure, multiple cooking and maceration should be taken. Apricot soup is best cooked in copper pots or stainless steel pots.
Cook 35% to 40% sugar for the first time (you can also use the remaining sugar solution for the second time in continuous production). Because apricot contains more organic acids, it is not necessary to add citric acid to convert sucrose. The cooking time is about ten minutes to ensure even heating. When the surface of the fruit is slightly swollen and a small bubble appears, it is poured into the cylinder and soaked. The immersion time is generally l2 hours to 24 hours. The sugar liquid should be immersed in the fruit.
The amount of sugar in the second boiled sugar should be 50% (can be added with sugar or left in the third boiled sugar). Cooking time is generally 2 minutes to 3 minutes. After cooking, remove and drain the sugar liquid on a bamboo tray to dry.
The third boiled sugar concentration was 56% and the cooking time was 15 minutes to 20 minutes. During the cooking process, the concentration of sugar continuously increases as the water evaporates. When the amount of sugar is more than 70%, remove the fruit, drain the sugar liquid, and evenly put it on a bamboo tray to dry it and dry it. The product is ready to be dried until it is not sticky and the toughness of the fruit remains.
