To provide a manufacturing method of sweet high-quality dried persimmon which overcomes a weak point of a decompression type, is not astringent, is not bitter, has a good color tone.SOLUTION: The method includes a fumigation step of sulfur fumigation of peeled persimmon and a drying step of drying peeled persimmon after sulfur fumigation. In the sulfur fumigation step, sulfur fumigation is performed on the peeled persimmon in a sulfurous acid gas atmosphere having a concentration of 50 to 100 ppm , The drying step includes a depressurizing step of maintaining the inside of the processing chamber containing the peeled persimmon in a reduced pressure to less than the atmospheric pressure for a predetermined time, a non-depressurization step of returning the inside of the processing chamber to the atmospheric pressure and maintaining for a predetermined time, And a step of alternately repeating the steps of:BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION【課題】減圧式の弱点を克服し、渋くなく、苦くなく、色調の良い甘い高品質干し柿の製造方法の提供。【解決手段】剥皮柿を硫黄燻蒸する燻蒸工程と、硫黄燻蒸後の剥皮柿を乾燥させる乾燥工程とを含み、硫黄燻蒸工程は、剥皮柿を50~100ppm濃度の亜硫酸ガス雰囲気下で硫黄燻蒸し、乾燥工程は、剥皮柿を収容した加工室内を大気圧未満に減圧した状態に所定時間維持する減圧工程と、加工室内を大気圧に戻し所定時間維持する非減圧工程と、減圧工程と非減圧工程とを交互に繰り返す工程とを含む、干し柿の製造方法。【選択図】図1
