Cuttlefish should be selected and classified according to size and freshness before belly opening, so as to facilitate uniform dryness during the drying process and facilitate grading and packaging of finished products.
Cuttlefish should be picked and categorized according to size and freshness before their bellies are opened, to ensure consistent drying and easier grading and packaging of finished products.
Put the eviscerated cuttlefish in a fish basket, about 5 kilograms per basket, place it in seawater for dipping, and wash off the ink stains adhering to the cuttlefish body.
Cuttlefish drying generally requires drying at a relatively low temperature. If the temperature is too high, the protein will be denatured and the drying quality will be destroyed. The temperature is generally set at about 40 ℃, and at the same time, rapid drying should be avoided, which will cause the skin on the surface of the cuttlefish to form false drying. Under the condition of maintaining a large circulating air volume and high wind speed, the cuttlefish can fully contact with the air, and the water vapor evaporated by the cuttlefish is taken away under the action of the circulating wind, and then the water vapor is condensed and filtered by the unit and discharged to the outside of the room.
Cuttlefish drying should avoid water vapor remaining on the surface of the cuttlefish and inadequate drainage, resulting in the growth of germs, due to the high moisture content of cuttlefish and moisture existing in fat and oil.
Usually, the feeding amount of wet cuttlefish is 4-5 catties. After drying, 1 catties of dry cuttlefish can be obtained. The dried cuttlefish has good appearance and bright color, which can maintain the best effect.
