How do you process garri from cassava tubers?
In
African countries such as Nigeria, garri processing is an important way
to process and add value to cassava. But many people do not know how to
process garri from cassava tubers? So what is the process of making
garri from cassava ? Generally, garri processing involves the process of
washing, peeling, grinding, fermentation, dehydration and drying.
1. Washing: Washing
step is quite simple, which just use water to wash away the dirt, soil
and other impurities on cassava. It requires to wash all the debris on
cassava, for they may influence the final quality of garri.
2. Peeling: Peeling
is important for garri processing, using a knife to cut off the gray
outer peels of cassava. Mechanical peeling adopts cassava peeling
machine to automatically peel cassava.Due to cassava has irregular
shape, peeling by machine normally can not achieve a 100% peeling rate.
DOING cassava peeling machine
can reach a peeling rate of more than 95%, which is more efficient than
other machine and can basically remove the peels. In this step, the
toxic cyanide in the cassava epidermis is basically removed.
3. Grinding: Grinding
is regarded as the most important step for garri processing, it
breaking the cassava cell to release all the staff in cassava. The
grated cassava is in the state of cassava pulp, then it is packed in bag
and stack in a room to ferment for 2 or three days.
4. Dewatering: The
fermented cassava pulp requires to be dehydrated to moisture content
that easy to be fried. In this step for garri processing, garri is
easily be polluted, so it will be better to use a stainless steel
machine for dewatering. DOING hydraulic press is designed with corrosion
resistant stainless steel material for inner part, ensuring garri
quality.
5. Frying: Frying
is to dry the wet garri to an extent that is easy to store, because the
hot whether in Africa makes all food easy to rot, therefore this step
is also important for garri processing. There are two ways for garri
frying. Using a traditional garri wok or automatic garri fryer in garri processing machine.
Traditional garri wok is fit for family processing. While garri fryer is
suitable for garri processing plant, for it has a roller to evenly stir
garri, so that the produced garri has uniform water content and high
quality.
If
the produced garri is for self eating, packaging can be omitted. If the
garri is for sale, a packaging machine can be chosed to pack garri,
thus the garri can be sold for a better price.
Garri
processing is vital for African countries, especially with the increase
of population, garri and cassava plays important role in food safety.
