Edible Swiftlet's Nest (ESN) is one of the highest-value export commodities. However, these commodities often contain the chemical compounds nitrite and H2O2, which are toxic and dangerous. This fatal impact made Indonesia create a standard, as stated in SNI 8998:2021, which requires a maximum nitrite content of 80 mg/kg. To achieve this goal, it is important to standardize specific washing procedures that can significantly reduce nitrite and H2O2 levels. In this research, the effect of the washing method with the addition of ascorbic acid additives with various concentrations on the levels of nitrite, H2O2, and ESN nutrients was studied. The use of ascorbic acid 5% (w/v) was detected to produce the most significant reduction in nitrite (from 331.40 to 75.85 ppm). The use of ascorbic acid also succeeded in ensuring the absence of H2O2 and maintaining the nutritional content of ESN. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
