What is Blend T6?

A processing aid based on a proprietary polysaccharide complex that maintains quality of fresh cut vegetables. All components of Blend T6 are classified by FDA as a G.R.A.S., (Generally Recognized As Safe). For more information on G.R.A.S. please visit the U.S. FDA Website.

The T6 is used for processed cut vegetables to prevent white blushing, to maintain product color and to reduce bacterial growth.

Preparation and Mixing instructions:

  1. To prepare the mix, you will need a water container, a scale and a paddle for stirring water.
  2. If necessary, pre-weigh the WCA T6 using the table below.
  3. Based on the size of your container, pre-measure the water using the table below. ***Note: Water temperature should be from 36*F to 50*F to achieve best results.
  4. To achieve the best results slowly add WCA T6 directly to the water while vigorously stirring.
  5. Once the mixture resembles the consistency of a very light malt/milkshake continue to vigorously mix for 2 to 5 more minutes to make sure no powder residue is left at the bottom of the container.
  6. Dipped sample into the WCA T6 mixed for 1 minute, then spun dried, vacuum packed, and keep under refrigeration.
