- Abstract
Dehydrated cabbage leaf slabs introduce a practical and easy-prepared dried form of foods and have a potential for industrial scale productions. This study aims to provide drying curves of 10x5cm cabbage leaf slabs at different drying temperatures and times and to model drying behavior empirically. Cabbage leaves were blanched in boiling water for 2 min and convectional dried at different temperatures (40, 50, 60 and 70°C). All experiments were triplicated. Cabbage leaf slabs were weighted in 10min intervals during 90min total drying time. Drying curves were produced and modelled empirically. Results indicated that the weight loss increased by increasing drying temperature. Also, increase in drying time resulted in an increase in weight loss at the same drying temperature. Exponential model was satisfactorily applied to drying temperatures in the range of 40-70°C (R2>0.95).
