Description
The strawberry is a very importantberries fruit. It can be used fresh or for production of different products, available for consumption during the whole year.
The aim of this research was to compare the quality changes of fresh and dried strawberries. For drying were used the strawberries varieties: elsanta, humi grande and mesecharka, from Skopje region. Before drying were applied the following treatments: V0 – not treated, V1 - with vitamin C, V2 - with sugar solution. The drying was performed in Armenian solar dryer. During research were examined the chemical components of fresh and dried strawberries: total dry matter, sugars, total acids, proteins, vitamin C and mineral matter.On solar dried strawberry were performed microbiological analysis according to appropriate regulations. According to this research, the Armenian Solar Dryer is very good in economical and ecological aspect as well as quality properties.
