The new drying technology of sea cucumber

In this work, we studied the drying characteristics and the quality of sea cucumbers (Stichopus japonicus) that underwent preliminary processing using microwaves during freeze drying. The qualitative parameters of the samples (FD) are compared. The results of shortening the drying period using microwave pre-treatment during drying are analyzed. Experimental data were also obtained and the rehydration process and the chemical composition (protein, carbohydrates) of the dried sample were compared.
