Badano wpływ temperatury i stopnia rozdrobnienia na przebieg procesu suszenia kapusty białej oraz cechy jakościowe suszu. Warunki suszenia oceniano z punktu widzenia maksymalizacji wskaźników stopnia rehydratacji, punktowej oceny sensorycznej i zawartości witaminy С w suszu oraz minimalizacji czasu suszenia.

Late variety of cabbage was dried at 65, 75 and 85°C. The content of ascorbic acid in the dried material was 13.40, 9.40 and 6.20 mg% (in raw material 31.48 mg%), mean sensorial assessment 3.95, 3.60 and 3.05 points, rehydration rate 744.2, 671.2 and 577.2 ml/100g and mean assessment index of the qualitative characters tested 1.00, 0.84 and 0.67, respectively. With disintegration of 3 - 9 mm the index was approximately similar, however being worse with 12 mm thick chips. From the range of 3 to 9 mm disintegration recommended should be that of 3 mm because of the shortest time of its drying. The results of the tests would indicate that leafy vegetables should be dried at temperature not exceeding 65°C and disintegrating the raw material into 3 mm thick chips.
