Perilla drying strives for efficiency. After all, the price per kilogram of dried perilla is not too high, so the quantity of fresh perilla that can be dried in each batch is particularly important. Therefore, the layout and installation of the perilla leaves in the drying room are crucial considerations.
Perilla drying requires careful temperature control. Because the underside of the leaves is purple, to ensure that the color does not change after drying, it is important to maintain a constant temperature and color during the initial drying process. The initial temperature should not be set too high; 50°C is usually sufficient. The temperature can be increased later. Of course, if appearance is not a concern and the drying time is simply shortened, the temperature can be raised to above 60°C to shorten the drying time. However, for optimal appearance and quality, it is recommended to dry the perilla at a lower temperature, as this will produce a better flavor and color.
Perilla leaves are a kind of herb that can be used as medicine as well as food. During the drying process, attention should be paid to temperature control, because the back of the leaves is purple. In order to ensure that the color does not change after drying, attention should be paid to constant temperature and color in the early stage of drying. The initial temperature should not be set too high, usually 50°C is enough, and the drying temperature can be appropriately increased later. Of course, if you do not consider the appearance and just want to shorten the time, the temperature can be raised to above 60°C to shorten the drying time. However, if you want good appearance and quality, it is recommended to use low temperature drying to obtain better taste and color of perilla.
