Dragon fruit is considered a
potential product of Vietnam for exporting. This type of fruit is grown in Binh
Thuan, Long An, Tien Giang,…
Vietnamese dragon fruit is
famous for 2 types including white flesh and red flesh. While white flesh
dragon fruit is a soft fruit, which has a slightly sweet and cool taste, red
flesh dragon fruit is a new, strange, delicious, and very nutritious product.
The seeds like black sesame seeds are mixed into the flesh, and the fleshy
layer is usually consumed in the form of fresh fruit, with a sweet aroma. Red
flesh dragon fruit is currently very popular in the fruit market in Vietnam and
other countries around the world.

with vapor heat treatment (VHT) when the core temperature of the fruit reaches
46.8°C or is higher for at least 40 minutes, with a relative humidity of 90% or
more. After being treated with cold water, dragon fruit is cooled in about 10

back to room temperature. This technology helps to handle an amount of pests
and diseases harmful to fruits after being harvested, to reduce the rate of
transpiration, endogenous ethylene production, respiratory intensity,… thereby
lasting a longer shelf life, storage time, decreasing post-harvest losses, and
satisfying the standards for export.
According to Tridge, the
