Do You Know the Reason for the Blackening of the Surface of the Shiitake Mushroom Cube?
Shiitake mushroom cube is a food made from high-quality fresh shiitake mushrooms marinated in special brine. Fresh shiitake mushrooms are strictly selected and processed to ensure the quality of shiitake mushrooms. Subsequently, a unique brine pickling process was used to give shiitake mushrooms unique advantages in taste and flavor. The salting process includes material selection, rinsing, cleaning, cooling and other links. Refined salt can avoid impurities from affecting the quality of shiitake mushroom cube. Shiitake mushrooms need to be rinsed with salt water to remove impurities. To kill, you need to use an aluminum pot or a stainless steel pot to boil brine to inactivate enzymes. During the process, you need to control the amount and temperature of mushrooms to avoid damage. After killing, it is quickly cooled to the central temperature of the mushroom body, and then the time and operation are strictly controlled through the salting process to maintain the shape and color. The key steps include the deployment of saturated brine and the control of the salting environment.
The reason for the blackening of the surface of the shiitake mushroom cube:
1. The brine concentration is too high: when the brine concentration is too high, the shiitake mushroom will quickly lose water due to accelerated osmosis, which may cause the color of the shiitake mushroom cube to darken or even appear jet black. In order to avoid this situation, we recommend that the concentration of brine be controlled within a suitable range. In general, the concentration of brine is best not to exceed 16%.
2. Oxidation of shiitake mushrooms: the surface of shiitake mushrooms will come into contact with oxygen after injury. If they are not soaked in salt water in time, the injured area may turn reddish brown or deeper due to oxidation. Therefore, when dealing with shiitake mushrooms, try to maintain their integrity, avoid injury, and soak in the appropriate concentration of salt water in time.
3. Improper preservation: if the shiitake mushrooms are marinated in salt water and stored improperly, such as unclean containers, poor sealing, or placed in a humid environment, it may also cause the shiitake mushroom cube to turn black. In order to maintain the quality of the shiitake mushroom cube, it should be kept in a dry, ventilated and well-sealed environment.
