Factory Frozen French Fries Production Steps
工厂生产的薯条生产工艺流程为:土豆清洗、去皮、切割、漂烫、脱水、油炸、脱脂、冷冻、包装。

- 土豆清洗和去皮是工厂生产炸薯条的第一步。它首先清洗新鲜土豆以去除皮肤污渍。然后用土豆削皮器去除土豆皮。
- 获得上一步去皮的土豆后,工厂使用专业的土豆切片机将土豆切成大小均匀的条状。普通薯条的尺寸为3~12毫米。
- 热烫是冷冻薯条生产过程中的重要组成部分。这一步是将土豆条放入80~100℃的热水中浸泡,以除去土豆中的淀粉。焯烫可以防止土豆粘连,确保薯条美味。
- 为了防止炸飞溅,在油炸前通常使用脱水机除去薯片中多余的水分。
- 该工厂使用工业炸薯条机生产炸薯条。工业薯条油炸机可以保证油炸过程中油炸温度均匀,并且可以智能控制油炸时间。
- 油炸完后,当然要使用脱脂机将薯条中的油去除。
- 油炸、脱脂后,工厂一般将炸好的薯条放入冷冻柜冷冻。冷冻薯条的温度一般为-12~18℃。
- 从冷冻柜中取出的薯条经过薯条包装机包装后,可以运输到快餐店、超市等场所进行销售。
由于工厂加工的土豆量很大,每两个步骤之间通过传送带连接。因此,可以减少人员的接触,提高薯条的产量。
Why Freeze Fries Before Packaging?
有人可能会奇怪,为什么薯条是冷冻然后包装而不是包装然后冷冻。炸薯条较软,如果包装后冷冻可能会粘在一起。包装前冷冻的目的是确保薯条保持独立且不粘连。
