Pressing filtration for extraction of cabbage dietary fiber and soluble components
Here the authors introduce pressing filtration as a novel, efficient, and low-energy method for extracting dietary fiber from cabbage, which successfully retains heat-sensitive nutrients and achieves a high fiber yield. The study demonstrates the scalability and economic viability of this technique for commercial use, highlighting that the resulting high-fiber cabbage powder can be incorporated into familiar foods like hamburger buns and beef patties without compromising taste or sensory quality.
