Drying of Shea Kernels and Butter Quality: Impact of Traditional Sun Drying. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of the conditions of direct sun exposure of the kernels from Butyrospermum parkii (shea) on the quality of the butter and to define the best conditions of drying. The influence of the thickness of kernels and of time was determined, according to the central composite experimental design, in comparison with the extraction yield, the acid and peroxide values, the melting properties and the composition of unsaponifiable matter of butter. The maximum butter yield is obtained with kernels content 10 to 15% of residual water. The cutting up of kernels makes easier the vaporizing of water but, also increases acidity ...
