Understanding the Frying Process of Plant-Based Foods Pretreated with Pulsed Electric Fields Using Frying Models

Abstract: Deep-fried foods (e.g., French fries, potato/veggie crisps) are popular among consumers. Recently, there has been an increased interest in the application of Pulsed Electric Fields (PEF) technology as a pretreatment of plant-based foods prior to deep-frying to improve quality (e.g., lower browning tendency and oil uptake) and reduce production costs (e.g., better water and energy efficiencies). However, the influence of a PEF pretreatment on the frying process and related chemical reactions for food materials … Show more

“…In the current study, the frying process of untreated and PEF-treated potatoes was modeled following three methods (VSN, enthalpy and approximate quasi-steady state) as described in Section 3. These models were applied for two conditions, namely: (i) at the constant boiling temperature of water in potato at 103 • C (fixed conditions, based on the results in Figure 4) and (ii) when the boiling temperature of water in the potato increases (variable conditions) following Equation (18). Figure 7 shows the application of the VSN method using a fixed and variable water boiling temperature to predict the measured center temperature of untreated and PEF-treated potato discs.…”

“…It was then extrapolated to achieve a 100 wt % water loss, as it was difficult to obtain from the experiment explained in Section 2.5. Based on the results reported in Table 4, the experimental measurements of the potato liquid boiling temperature (measured data in Figure 6) and data extrapolation to 100 wt % water losses, Equation (18) was developed. It was assumed that the location of the boiling interface determined the water remaining in the potato disc during frying and hence its boiling point.…”

“…In industrial operations, PEF is commonly operated at a field strength of 10 kV/cm or higher for non-thermal pasteurization of liquid foods, or at 1~5 kV/cm to improve the mass transfer and alter the textural properties of food materials. Examples of low-field-strength applications include the use of PEF pretreatment for frying potatoes [ 10 ], PEF-assisted extraction of anthocyanin [ 11 ], PEF-assisted extraction of polyphenols [ 12 ], and accelerated dehydration of vegetables through increased mass transfer achieved via PEF pretreatment [ 13 , 14 ].…”
