Basic Information
Scope
Main Technical Content: 1. Raw Material Requirements: Dangshan pear paste should comply with the provisions of NY/T 1191. The production water should meet the requirements of GB 5749. 2. Sensory Requirements: Sensory requirements are the most direct and basic requirements for product quality. In this standard, the sensory requirements of Dangshan pear paste are defined based on its basic color, taste, and texture. The specifications are determined according to the product characteristics and testing results, and after fully listening to the opinions of relevant scientific research units, production enterprises, and experts. The products are tested according to the methods of GB 7101. 3. Physicochemical Indicators: Based on the characteristics of Dangshan pear paste, after extensive research and comprehensive data from production enterprises, regulatory authorities, universities, and food testing institutions, the physicochemical indicators of Dangshan pear paste, including soluble solids, total acidity, moisture, and protocatechic acid, were determined and validated through multiple batch testing. - Soluble solids refer to all water-soluble compounds in liquid or fluid foods, including monosaccharides, disaccharides, polysaccharides (except starch, cellulose, chitosan, and hemicellulose, which are insoluble in water), vitamins, and minerals. Soluble solids content is an important indicator of food quality and a technical parameter for food processing. If sweeteners are added to the pear paste to meet taste requirements, the soluble solids content will be very low. Therefore, the soluble solids content of the pear paste can reflect its quality. The soluble solids were tested according to GB/T 12143 "General Analysis Methods for Beverages". The results (Table 2) showed that the soluble solids content of the samples ranged from 77.7 to 83.1%, with an average value of 79.5%. Based on the actual testing data, the soluble solids content of Dangshan pear paste was
