| Abstract | ||
| Dried vegetable soup mixtures are now widely produced for their long storage life at room temperature and in small unit volume. In addition, they are produced from different raw materials most of which are not available all the year around. Vegetable soup mixtures containing 75–95% air-dried vegetables such as carrots, spinach, onion, potatoes, peas, green beans, tomatoes, celery, garlic, squash and artichoke, in the form of pieces having a substantially intact cellular structure, were prepared. Citrate, lentil seeds, cumin, black-pepper, spices and salt were also added, packed in polyethylene bags, then stored for 6 months at ambient temperature. Moisture content and physico-chemical properties were determined during storage and the prepared vegetable soup mixtures after reconstitution were evaluated organoleptically. | ||
