ABSTRACT:
A system for pressure infiltration of liquid through the skin of fresh produce. The produce is subjected to vacuum pressure, and then coated with the liquid without submersion while continuing to subject the produce to the vacuum pressure. The application of liquid is continued as the vacuum pressure is progressively released to return the pressure surrounding the produce to atmospheric conditions, thereby causing the liquid to be forced through the produce skin surfaces due to the increase in exterior pressure about it. The coating apparatus is a combination of yieldable support rollers and an overhead spray. The rollers are partially immersed in a liquid bath from which liquid is recirculated to the spray nozzles.
