Slice Champignon Mushroom in SO₂ in Drums – Technical Product Profile
Slice champignon mushroom in SO2 in drums are semi-processed mushroom inputs engineered for factories that require uniform slice geometry, color stability, and long holding time before final processing. The slicing is performed prior to preservation, allowing SO₂ to act efficiently on exposed surfaces, significantly reducing enzymatic discoloration during storage and transport.
This format is particularly suitable for automated downstream production lines where consistency in thickness and hydration is critical.
Slice Geometry & Processing Control
Precision-cut slices produced from sound, mature white mushrooms
Typical slice thickness maintained through calibrated slicing equipment
Smooth cut surfaces with limited feathering or fragmentation
Controlled slice-to-brine ratio to prevent compaction inside drums
Preservation Mechanism (SO₂ Functionality)
SO₂ applied immediately after slicing to inhibit polyphenol oxidase activity
Prevents darkening at cut edges during extended storage
Supports microbiological stability under ambient conditions
Residual SO₂ can be reduced during standard rinsing and cooking steps
Appearance & Texture Characteristics of the Slice champignon mushroom in SO2 in drums
Light cream to pale ivory color after rinsing
Defined slice edges remain intact after handling
Elastic texture suitable for further slicing or dicing
Low incidence of soft or translucent tissue
Performance of the Slice champignon mushroom in SO2 in drums in Further Processing
Maintains slice identity in canned and frozen formats
Absorbs marinades, sauces, and seasonings evenly
Predictable shrinkage during thermal processing
Compatible with high-speed filling and portioning equipment
