Cauliflower is a brittle product which does not resist conventional thermal treatments by heat. The feasibility of processing cauliflower by ohmic heating was investigated. Cauliflower florets were sterilised in a 10 kW APV continuous ohmic heating pilot plant with various configurations of pre-treatments and processing conditions. The stability of final products was examined and textural qualities were evaluated by mechanical measurements. Ohmic heating treatments gave a product of attractive appearance, with interesting firmness properties and a high proportion of particles >1 cm. Stabilities at 25 °C and 37 °C were verified, and in one case, the product was even stable at 55 °C. Low temperature pre-cooking of cauliflower, high flow rate and sufficient electrical conductivity of florets seem to be optimal conditions. The interest of using this electrical technology to process brittle products such as ready meals containing cauliflower was highlighted
