Abstract
This study investigated changes in physicochemical properties of onion powders during various drying conditions. The moisture content during vacuum drying at $40^{\circ}C$ remained at 5.23% for 5 days of drying, and it was possible to quickly obtain day powder Weight reduction upon $-70^{\circ}C$ vacuum drying was 90% after 7 days. The large change in browning caused by vacuum freeze drying was lowest ($OD_{420}\;of\;1.173$) after 7 days of drying. The content of vitamin C increased with vacuum freeze drying. The major free sugars were fructose, glucose and sucrose. Of organic acids, citric acid was prominent and, after vacuum freeze drying, showed a high value of 1,965 mg/100g. Free amino acids noted were L-arginine, ${\beta}-alanine$, L-alanine and L-threonine. In summary, vacuum freeze drying at $-70^{\circ}C$ is optimal.
