Popis: The effect of different ultrasound pretreatment powers (0–500 W) before hot air drying on the moisture migration and quality of Cantharellus cibarius (C. cibarius) was investigated in this study. The results showed that the ultrasound pretreatment accelerated the drying rate. When the ultrasound power was 400 W, the drying time of C. cibarius was reduced by 18.90% compared with the control group. The low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results showed that the ultrasound pretreatment increased the water mobility in C. cibarius. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results revealed that the ultrasound pretreatment promoted the expansion of intercellular pores. In addition, the rehydration capacity and quality characteristics of the ultrasound-pretreated dried C. cibarius were better than those of the control group. Overall, this study concluded that ultrasound pretreatment is a promising pretreatment method for the hot air drying of C. cibarius products to reduce the total drying time significantly and improve the retention rate of the total phenolics and flavonoids of dried C. cibarius.
