Súhrn: The aim of the presented research was to evaluate the influence of low-temperature blanching and calcium chloride soaking on colour and consumer attractiveness of broccoli. The object of the study was broccoli soaked in 1% calcium chloride solution before blanching at a low temperature (50–80 °C). After the thermal treatment, measurement of components of colour was conducted in L*a*b* system and attractiveness of colour as well as global attractiveness of samples were evaluated by sensory analysis. Application of the technology of low-temperature blanching at the temperature of 50–60 °C for 10 min, with or without exposure to calcium ions, allows broccoli to achieve the most attractive colour. Soaking in 1% calcium chloride solution prior to low-temperature blanching resulted in obtaining a colour more attractive for consumers, compared to the use of conventional technology.
