DOI: 10.1007/s11694-018-9999-6
Abstract: The industrial process of freezing chestnuts generates 55–60% of by-products. This study aimed to valorise these low-value by-products by producing high-value chestnut flour. Two flour production processes were evaluated, using raw (RCF) and cooked (CCF10,… read more here.
