The present invention relates to a continuous on-board drying method for Antarctic krill and a continuous on-board processing method of shelled Antarctic krill. The drying method includes the following steps: 1) subjecting fishing materials to cleaning, sorting, and dewatering with a vibrating screen, 2) rapidly heating the krill to the temperature of up to 70? C. using infra-red rays; 3) hot-air drying; 4) impurity removal by vacuum; 5) cooling to obtain dried krill. The processing method includes the following steps: a) subjecting fishing materials to cleaning, sorting, and dewatering with a vibrating screen; b) rapidly heating the krill to the temperature of up to 70? C. using infra-red rays; c) hot-air drying; d) subjecting the dried krill to shelling treatment to separate shell from meat, to obtain shelled krill; e) impurity removal by vacuum to obtain shelled krill product. The methods in the present invention are highly efficient, energy saving, green and environmental protection, and the krill products have high quality and safety.

Compositions which are fragrant and contain at least a member set culled from a library of compositions, each being comprised of sub-combinations of selected terpenes. Fragrances that mimic that of various states of organic and synthetic aromatics including products, processes and those from non-combusted plant products, among other things, uniquitous products, processes, medicinals, and related moieties leverage databases of all known terpene groupings are offered for consideration, and have been provided, according to the instant teachings.

A method for preparing a plant derived product or a process intermediate or a process input, the method comprising the steps of providing a plant derived starting material, subjecting the starting material to a forward osmosis step against a draw solution so as to produce a plant material concentrate, and subjecting the draw solution to a water removal step. The water removal step may include further forward osmosis in combination with an evaporator system.

A method of making a solid, combined protein and fruit product includes preparing a concentrated protein mixture including at least one concentrated protein, adding at least one concentrated fruit to the concentrated protein mixture to form a protein and fruit mixture, and removing water from the protein and fruit mixture to reach a predetermined solids level for the solid, combined protein and fruit product. In some embodiments, the concentrated protein mixture includes at least one hydrocolloid agent. A solid, combined protein and fruit product includes a concentrated protein and a concentrated fruit mixed with the concentrated protein. The concentrated protein in the solid, combined protein and fruit product is minimally denatured and the solid, combined protein and fruit product does not harden during the shelf life of the solid, combined protein and fruit product.

Provided at low cost are: an instant processed meat product having extremely excellent reconstitution properties in hot water; and a method for producing the instant processed meat product having excellent production efficiency. Disclosed are: a fried and dried instant processed meat product containing pregelatinized starch; and a method for producing the fried and dried instant processed meat product. The method includes: preparing a material for the instant processed meat product, pregelatinized starch, and water; kneading the material for the instant processed meat product, the pregelatinized starch, and the water to obtain a kneaded product; shaping the kneaded product; and frying and drying the shaped kneaded product to obtain a fried and dried product.
