IQF Romanesco Floret 40-60mm
In Season
Processing
Romanesco is harvested by hand and transferred to floretting stations or directly to the factory to be floretted. Each load is sampled and assessed for foreign material and physical defects. The load is then cleaned, blanched, frozen and filled into bulk palletainers. The frozen florets are sampled and assessed against specification. The palletainers are then labelled and transferred to the cold store, where they are stored at -18°C until required for packing.
Packing
During packing, the romanesco is inspected before weighing and filling into blue poly lined cartons. The cartons are Best Before and Production date coded, check weighed and metal detected, palletised and stretch wrapped before being returned to store at -23ºC to await despatch to the UK at -18ºC.
