SWEET CHERRY COMPOTE PRODUCTION METHOD Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A23L3/04 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to preservation industry and may be used during production of sweet cherry compote in jars SKO 1-82-350. The method is as follows: fruits packed into jars are poured with 60°C hot water for 2 minutes with subsequent water replacement with 85°C syrup and jars sealing. Then the sealed jars are put into the carrier ensuring prevention of caps stripping in the process of heating; compote heating is performed in 130°C air flow at a rate of 3 - 4 m/s during 15 minutes with subsequent maintenance at a temperature of 100°C during 12 minutes and cooling in 20-25°C air flow at a rate of 7-8 m/s during 12 minutes; during each heat treatment process the jar is subjected to interrupted 2-3-minutes' turning upside down with a frequency equal to 0.1 sec^-1 with a 2-3 minutes' interval.

EFFECT: invention ensures more complete preservation of natural components of the used raw materials, decrease of boiled and cracked fruits quantity, enhancement of nutritive and biological value of the product, reduction of duration of the process of mechanical friction of fruits in jars, improvement of structural-and-mechanical characteristics of the ready product and prevention of syrup feculence.
