The invention relates to a method for obtaining dried melon, includes preparing and cutting fruits, convective drying. Fresh melon is cut by plates 5-20 mm in thickness, and drying is carried out by a convective drying in two stages up to residual moisture, which does not exceed that equilibrium with the environment, in doing so at the first stage a temperature of a heat carrier is 75-, a moisture content no less than 10 g/kg dry air up to achieving the maximum allowable temperature by material, and at the second stage a heat carrier temperature is 45-, a moisture content of no more than 10 g/kg of dry air at a heat carrier speed of 1.5-2.5 m/s, cooled up to a temperature of 15- in the course of 15-30 min and tightly packed. |
