Abstract

ABSTRACTEffects of commercial‐scale pulsed electric field (PEF) processing on the flavor and color of tomato juice during storage at 4 deg;for 112 d were studied. Tomato juice was prepared by hot break at 88°C for 2 min and then thermally processed at 92° for 90 s or PEF processed at 40 kV/cm for 57 μs. The PEF‐processed tomato juice retained more flavor compounds of trans‐2‐hexenal, 2‐isobutylthiazole, cis‐3‐hexanol than thermally processed or unprocessed control tomato juice (P < 0.05). PEF‐processed juice had significantly lower nonenzymatic browning and higher redness than thermally processed or control juice (P < 0.05). Sensory evaluations indicated that the flavor of PEF‐processed juice was preferred to that of thermally processed juice (P < 0.01).
