[Objective]To explore the best T.sinensis processing technology.[Method]The T.sinensis was treated by hot wind drying,freeze drying and blanching,and the contents of ascorbic acid,total phenolics and nitrite were determined respectively before and after the treatment to be a standard to evaluate the influence of different processing methods on the quality of T.sinensis.[Result]Both drying and blanching produced certain impact on the contents of all three components,among which the content of ascorbic acid was slightly influenced by vacuum freeze drying and short-time blanching,but greatly affected by long-time blanching and hot wind drying;the loss rate of polyphenols was above 60% when the hot wind drying,freeze drying and blanching lasted for more than 5 min,while it experienced little change under short-time blanching;hot wind drying and blanching may greatly reduce the content of nitrite,however,the vacuum freeze drying even improved the content,which would produce adverse impact on food safety.[Conclusion]Short-time blanching is the best method to process T.sinensis,it can effectively reduce its content of nitrite and retain the nutrients.
