Technological Freezing Methods
• Three main Technologies
1. Contact Freezing: After freezing product gets embedded inside ice. Freezing process takes hours.
2. Flash (IQF) Freezing: Freezing time is cut down only to few minutes.
3. Cryogenic Freezing: Most efficient freezing method, Liquid Nitrogen is used as refrigerant.

Scientific background of Quick Freezing
• During Freezing Process water freezes it expands and crystallizes.
• Quick freezing can freeze live viable cells in a state of suspended life.
![Page 7: Frozen Herbs Study - · PDF file · 2014-10-27Frozen Herbs List: # Name 1 Anise نوسناي 2 Basil ناحير 3 Bay Leaf(whole or chopped) راغلاقرو 4 Caraway ةيوارك](https://reader034.vdocuments.pub/reader034/viewer/2022051723/5aad58147f8b9a693f8e38bb/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Individual Quick Freezing
• Using IQF process each individual piece, slice, cube of herb is frozen separately so that even after attaining a temperature range from – 30 ◦C to – 40 ◦C in few minutes.
• The IQF method ensures the quality of the end product as it as does not lead to any loss of nutrients, flavors, colors, shape or texture.
• The process also results in a longer shelf life (up to 24 months).
