Among them, drying bamboo shoots is the most critical link, and related technologies are also advancing with the times. Bamboo shoot baking technology can be divided into charcoal baking type, firewood type, flue-cured tobacco room type, coal type and electric type.
The earliest energy material used for drying is charcoal, which is usually made by farmers, adding the link of burning charcoal. When baking, bamboo shoots are directly placed on charcoal for baking, which also has great security risks. People are prone to carbon monoxide poisoning in the curing barn. Later, learning from flue-cured tobacco technology, wood was burned in the iron pipe and bamboo shoots were dried in the convective air outside the iron pipe. This method has great advantages over the former. The barn is separated from people, which is not only safe, but also convenient to control the temperature. It can dry a large number of bamboo shoots at the same time, make full use of space and improve the utilization rate of wood heat energy.
Electric bamboo shoot baking is one of the emerging bamboo shoot baking technologies at present (20 14), and the related technologies are still in the pilot promotion stage.
Yong 'an dried bamboo shoots are traditionally difficult to cook and eat. In recent years, small packages, soft bags, instant dried bamboo shoots, flavored dried bamboo shoots, leisure dried bamboo shoots and other products have been continuously introduced, which are well received by consumers. Among them, "Lv Pin" brand bamboo shoot series products won the gold medal in '99 China Bamboo Culture Festival International Bamboo Expo.
