Abstract
In retort processing, food is filled into a pouch or metal can, sealed, and then
heated to extremely high temperatures, rendering the product commercially
sterile. Retort processing of foods in rigid, semi rigid and flexible packaging systems is
one of the most acceptable forms of preservation. It represents a unique combination of
package, process and product technology with potential economic benefits. The retort
pouch is constructed from a flexible metal-plastic laminate which is able to
withstand thermal processing via pasteurization. The food is first prepared and
then sealed into the retort pouch. The pouch is then heated to 116-121°C under
high pressure.
