DEHYDRATION FOR EXPORT PURPOSE
[CODE NO. 3025]
Garlic is one of the important species coming into Allium group, whose botanical name is A. Sativum.
A hardy perennial, c60 cm in height, native to Central Asia and cultivated all over India. Bulbs made up of cloves; leaves long, flat, acute, sheahing the lower half of stem; scape slender, smooth, shining, spathes long, beaked, enclosing heads bearing solid bulbils; flowers small, white, prolonged into leafy points.

Garlic Powder:-
Garlic powder as such, is more handy for culinary as well as medicinally purposes. Garlic can be economically converted into powder, using the technique developed by the central food technological, Mysore. For preparing garlic powder, hot-air drying by the through flow method is preferred, as it is more economical and time-saving. The critical temperature for dehydration of garlic being 60o, the temperature during dehydration should be less than 60o. Maintenance of low moisture, packing of the powder in hermetically sealed containers, and storage at low temperatures (0-2o) are essential to prevent non-enzymatic browning of garlic powder.
POTATO POWDER
Potato granules come as a fine powder that is mixed with boiling water to yield a food similar in texture and taste to mashed potatoes. The production process involves peeling, cooking and drying potatoes, which are then reduced to granules of one or a few cells each. Some chemical additives are used to prolong shelf life.
Potato granules are intended as a potato substitute. Fresh potatoes are too perishable for use in food aid situations. Given the ease of preparation and minimal energy inputs, potato granules may be preferable to wheat or rice as a source of carbohydrates (energy) in situations such as refugee camps where access to cooking facilities is limited. In areas where food is being prepared centrally, potato granules may be mixed with milk powder to provide additional protein and micronutrients, and to increase palatability.
Possible limitations of the product include:
• As detailed in the section on cost, below, potato granules are significantly more expensive than other sources of carbohydrate.
• As with any food selection, local tastes should be understood and respected as much as possible.
• Water-borne disease: As with milk powder, reconstitution with contaminated, inadequately treated water increases the risk of water-borne disease (diarrhea etc).
