Abstract

Acidified Xiaomila (Capsicum frutescens L.) is a typical condiment and it has been used as a popular condiment in Southwest Chinese cuisine with its unique flavor.This study compared the effects of different pasteurization technologies[thermal processing (TP, 80 ℃, 20 min), high-pressure processing (HPP, 600 MPa, 5 min), and adding sodium metabisulfite (SMS, 0.1 g/kg)] and storage conditions (25, 37, and 42 ℃ for 30 days) on the quality changes in acidified Xiaomila.The main results were that more than 96% of the microorganisms in the acidified Xiaomila were inactivated by TP and HPP.Compared with HPP and SMS, TP had the largest influence on the quality characteristics of acidified Xiaomila.After TP, the color of acidified Xiaomila changed from green to yellow, chlorophyll content significantly decreased by 55.86% (P<0.05), the total phenolic and total flavone content in acidified Xiaomila decreased by 29.68% and 63.93%, and the antioxidant ability (DPPH radical and ABTS cationic radical scavenging capacities) decreased by 6.05%-6.67%.The effect of HPP and SMS on the quality characteristics of samples was much less than that of TP.During the storage time, the microbial content of acidified Xiaomila increased in the early stage (0-14 days) and decreased in the late stage (14-30).The high temperature storage (37 and 42 ℃) significantly inhibited the growth of mycotic yeast (not detected).The content of nitrite did not exceed the upper limit of the national standard in the whole storage process.Meanwhile, with the increased storage temperature, the lower L* value and b* value, the a*value, and the browning index of acidified Xiaomila were higher.After storage, the content of total phenol and total flavone decreased significantly (decreased by 47.30%-70.49% and 36.10%-91.23%, respectively), especially in high storage temperature groups (P<0.05).The antioxidant ability was also maintained at a low level (48.91-51.42%).In summary, TP and storage could cause the deterioration of the quality of acidified Xiaomila and high temperature storage (37 and 42 ℃) could accelerate this process.This paper can provide the theoretical basis and technical support for the industrial production of acidified Xiaomila.
