For the industrial processing of cauliflower, a key requirement is tissue stability during the blanching process, which is necessary for enzyme inactivation. Varieties suitable for processing must maintain curd integrity, not crumble during mechanical separation, and not change color or taste during thermal processing and long-term storage.
An important criterion is the absence of internal tissue darkening, often caused by boron deficiency, as such defects cannot be eliminated during the technological cycle. Unlike varieties intended for the fresh market, technological endurance of the curds is critically important here, ensuring the high quality of the final frozen product.
