Abstract
The softening of acidified chili peppers induced by processing and storage has become a major challenge for the food industry. This study aims to explore the impact of pasteurization techniques, thermal processing (TP), high-pressure processing (HPP), addition of sodium metabisulfite (SMS), and storage conditions (25 °C, 37 °C, and 42 °C for 30 days) on the texture-related properties of acidified chili pepper. The results showed that the textural properties of samples were destructed by TP (the hardness of samples decreased by 19.43 %) but were less affected by HPP and SMS. Compared with processing, storage temperature had a more dominant impact on texture and pectin characteristics. With increased storage temperature, water-solubilized pectin fraction content increased (increased by 160.99 %, 136.74 %, and 13.01 % in TP, HPP, and SMS-stored groups, respectively), but sodium carbonate-solubilized pectin fraction content decreased (decreased by 29.84 %, 26.81 %, and 8.60 % in TP-, HPP-, and SMS-stored groups, respectively), especially in TP-stored groups. Multivariate data analysis showed that softening was more closely related to pectin conversion induced by acid hydrolysis and pectinase depolymerization. This finding offers new perspectives for the production of acidified chili pepper.
