Antigaspi: transforming unsold and unsalable fruits and vegetables into canned recipes! The Retoqués get trained with the CTCPA

Published on : 22/03/2022

[ Antigaspi ] A few weeks ago, the CTCPA welcomed Les Retoqués - Cannery of Strasbourg for training in autoclave operation and preservation principles.

During two days, the trainees were trained by Alexandre DUPUIS (Director CTCPA Amiens - North-East & Ile-de-France Region) and Xavier DEVIS (Technology Project Manager) to the fundamentals of quality in food processing, microbiology, the roles of heat treatment and the different types of sterilization equipment. Also on the agenda for our trainees: labelling regulations and safety rules for production.

What did Les Retoqués think ?

"The CTCPA's training program has reassured us that our anti-waste canning business will continue. Our trainers listened to our many questions and we were able to learn from our first field experiences."

Who are Les Retoqués - Conserverie de Strasbourg ?
Les Retoqués is an association led by an enthusiastic and definitely very greedy team, wanting to fight locally against food waste.

The objective is twofold: to create a zero waste territory and to connect local producers and consumers.

For this, the association articulates its activities around two fields of intervention:
- The transformation of unsold and unmarketable fruits and vegetables from local organic producers into delicious recipes. Put in jars, they are sold locally in short circuit.
- The creation and animation of awareness workshops or cooking classes for a varied public.

At the CTCPA, we are proud to accompany beautiful projects with positive impacts for the future.

Hydrogen Peroxide Vapour decontamination of dry ingredients

Dry and dehydrated ingredients are widely used in the food industry. These internationally traded products are generally contaminated by a microbial flora consisting of pathogenic bacteria, spore-forming bacteria, yeasts, molds and toxins such as mycotoxins produced by certain molds during storage. Decontamination is therefore desirable; however, dry products are difficult to treat, being sensitive to humidity and high temperatures. The CTCPA has been working for several years in Collective Research (VAPDEC then OXYMORE projects - reports available on request) on an innovative chemical decontamination technology using Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor, in collaboration with our partner UniLaSalle in Beauvais.
