摘要

A method of preparing canned abalone by addition of bamboo salt and salt during the manufacture is provided to remove a fishy smell without separate seasoning and to give pharmacological efficacy of bamboo salt. Non-skinned or skinned abalone with a pH of 6.20 to 6.75 and the volatile basic nitrogen content in the range 5 to 8mg/100g is used. The non-skinned abalone is washed, heated with steam at 100deg.C for 15 to 25min. The skinned abalone is washed and heated with steam or water at 100deg.C for 15 to 25min. The steamed abalone is cooled to less than 10deg.C, washed with meat broth, dehydrated and dried. In the drying process, the abalone is salted with 6% table salt for 12 to 24hr, rubbed with a brush, washed with meat broth, dehydrated, boiled with hot water at 95deg.C for 1 to 2hr, dried in the shade for 1hr and re-dried at 70deg.C. The drying and re-drying process are repeated for 2 to 3 days. The processed abalone is finally dried for 5 days to a moisture content of 30 to 40%, put into a can, degassed at 95 to 100deg.C for 20 to 30min, poured with 1.0 to 1.5% by weight of table salt and 0.5 to 1.0% by weight of bamboo salt, sealed at 20 to 30cm/Hg, sterilized at 113 to 121deg.C for 40 to 80min and cooled at 38deg.C for 20 to 30min and at room temperature for 12hr.
