Chili Sauce Production Process

The industrial chili sauce production process generally follows these steps:

Raw Chili Selection --- Washing ---Crushing --- Grinding --- Seasoning and Mixing --- Cooking --- Sterilization ---Filling and Packaging

1. Raw Chili Selection

The first step in chili sauce production is choosing fresh, ripe chilies. High-quality chilies ensure that the sauce has the desired flavor profile, color, and consistency.

2. Washing 

Thoroughly wash chilies to remove any dirt, pesticides, or other contaminants. Furui Machinery’s air bubble washing machine is an ideal solution, providing a gentle yet effective wash that maintains the chilies' integrity.

3. Crushing

After washing, the chilies are crushed into smaller pieces to prepare for grinding.

4. Grinding

In this stage, the crushed chilies are ground into a smooth paste. Furui Machinery’s colloid grinder is used in this stage, offering adjustable gap settings that allow precise control over the particle fineness of the chili paste.

5. Seasoning and Mixing

Once the chili paste is ready, it is time to add seasoning and other ingredients such as garlic, vinegar, salt, and sugar to create the desired flavor profile.

6. Cooking

The mixture of chili paste and seasonings is then cooked to enhance the flavor and achieve the right viscosity.

7. Sterilization

Sterilization is an essential step in chili sauce production, ensuring that the sauce is free from harmful bacteria and pathogens, thereby extending its shelf life.

8. Filling and Packaging

Finally, the sterilized chili sauce is filled into pre-sterilized bottles or jars for packaging.
