I. Product Definition
Freeze-dried yam powder is a powder product made from fresh yams (mostly the iron rod yams from Jiaozuo, Henan Province) through vacuum freeze-drying (FD) technology. It is a high-value-added healthy food ingredient that is both medicinal and edible.
Ii. Core Process (Low-temperature Freshness Lock)
(1)Material selection and cleaning: Select thick and unrotten iron rod yams and clean them to remove impurities.
(2)Peeling and color protection: Peel with warm water, and use vitamin C and citric acid for color protection to prevent oxidation and blackening.
(3)Fresh steaming and maturation: Steam at a low temperature of 58-68 ℃ to inactivate enzymes and stimulate active ingredients.
(4)Pre-freezing: Rapidly freeze at around -40℃ for 2.5 to 3.5 hours to form ice crystals.
(5)Vacuum freeze-drying: Heating and sublimation under high vacuum (8-18Pa), ice crystals directly turn into gas and are discharged, with moisture content reduced to ≤4%.
(6)Ultrafine grinding: Low-temperature grinding to 120-150 mesh, with fine powder texture and easy solubility.
Iii. Nutrition and Active Ingredients (High Retention)
(1)The freeze-drying process is carried out at a low temperature throughout (≤25℃), avoiding the loss of heat-sensitive substances. The retention rate of core components is significantly higher than that of drying/sun-drying.
(2)Polysaccharides (mucoprotein) : Retention rate over 93%, protects gastric mucosa and regulates intestinal flora.
(3)Dioscin: Retention rate 95% – 97%, antioxidant and immune-boosting.
(4)Amylase/polyphenol oxidase: Highly active, it AIDS digestion and nourishes the spleen and stomach.
(5)Vitamin C/B complex: Less loss, supplementing daily nutrition.
Minerals: Potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc, etc. are completely retained.
0 Additives: No sucrose, no flavoring, no preservatives, no maltodextrin.
Iv. Taste and Characteristics
(1)Powdery: Off-white/light yellow, fine and fluffy, without rough particles.
(2)Brewing: Dissolves in warm water, fully rehydrated within 3 minutes, without lumps or residue, with a smooth and fragrant taste.
(3)Stability: Moisture content ≤4%, no deterioration at room temperature for 18 to 24 months, easy to store and transport.
V. Core Efficacy (Food and Medicine Sharing the Same Origin
(1)Strengthening the spleen and nourishing the stomach: Amylase promotes digestion, mucoprotein protects the gastric mucosa, and improves spleen deficiency with poor appetite and loose stools.
