The frozen pea processing line is specially designed for quick-freezing fresh green peas. It can meet the needs of most quick-frozen vegetables and is suitable for processing quick-frozen peas, corn, potatoes and other vegetables. This production line is not only suitable for making quick-frozen green beans, but also for freezing corn, vegetables, seafood and other products, because quick freezing can extend the shelf life and maintain the taste of food.
After entering the frozen pea processing line, peas will first go through the key link of de-podding and separation. There are professional mechanical equipment to remove the pea pods. In the process of de-podding, the effect of airflow is usually used to effectively separate light foreign matter such as leaves and pods to ensure the purity of peas while minimizing damage to peas.
After de-podding and separation, the peas will be sent to the cleaning link. The cleaning machine uses a strong water flow to fully clean and clean the peas. The impact of the water flow can effectively remove dust, dirt and other tiny impurities on the surface of the peas. Through multiple washing processes, the peas are kept clean and hygienic, providing consumers with high-quality products.
In the industrial frozen pea production line, blanching plays a vital role in maintaining the color, texture and nutrients of peas. The temperature of the hot water will be adjusted according to the variety and size of the peas to ensure the best blanching effect without destroying the cell structure of the peas. Scientific and reasonable blanching treatment can better retain the natural color, taste and nutrition of peas.
After blanching, the peas need to be cooled quickly to stop the cooking process and lock in freshness. There are usually two ways. One is to immerse the peas in cold water and use the rapid cooling effect of cold water to quickly reduce the temperature of the peas. The other is to cool by cold air. The strong cold air blows across the surface of the peas, taking away the heat and achieving rapid cooling.
At this stage, advanced freezing technology is applied to the freezing process of peas to ensure fast and uniform freezing. During the freezing process, continuous stirring and circulation are used to ensure that the peas are evenly frozen. Fast and uniform freezing can effectively lock in the nutrients and taste of peas, laying the foundation for long-term storage of peas.
Frozen peas are finally packaged in sealed containers. Choosing the right packaging material is essential to prevent frostbite and maintain the quality of peas. The industrial frozen pea production line uses automated packaging equipment to ensure that each package of peas is accurately weighed and tightly packed. After a rigorous packaging process, the frozen peas are ready to enter the market.
