Effect of drying methods on physico-chemical characteristics of dehydrated apricots in cold Arid Region of Ladakh

The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of different drying methods on physicochemical composition of dehydrated apricot fruits. The fresh apricots were dehydrated in open sun and in local solar drier developed by Krishi Vigyan Kendra Leh. The chemical composition showed that the fresh apricots contained moisture 81.7%, ash 0.69%, crude Protein 0.9%, crude fat 0.05%and crude fiber 1.07%. The solar drier and using open sun drying substantially decreased moisture content to 12.61% and 14.7% respectively. Proportions of other components were increased, which include ash (3.34% and 3.13%), crude fat (1.82% and 1.59%), crude protein (0.98% and 0.92%) and Crude fiber (2.75% and 2.08%) respectively. | Effect of drying methods on physico-chemical characteristics of dehydrated apricots in cold Arid Region of Ladakh
