Preparation method of soybean protein isolate
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of food and food processing, in particular to a preparation method of soybean protein isolate.
Background
The Soybean Protein Isolate (SPI) is a complete protein food additive produced by using low-temperature desolventized soybean meal as a raw material. The isolated soy protein has a protein content of above 90% and contains approximately 20 amino acids, including various essential amino acids. The isolated soy protein is rich in nutrition, does not contain cholesterol, and is a few varieties capable of replacing animal protein in plant protein.
Soy protein isolate has many functional properties such as dispersibility, emulsifiability, hydration, oil absorption, gelling, foaming, and film forming properties, and is widely used in various fields of food production. For example, the isolated soy protein can be used in the production of meat products, beverages, nutritional foods and fermented foods, and has unique effects of improving food quality, strengthening nutrition, reducing serum cholesterol, and preventing heart and cerebrovascular diseases.
However, at present, domestic soybean protein isolate is mainly applied to the field of meat products, and the problems of serious product homogenization, strong competition and low additional value exist. The foreign isolated soy protein is also used for producing solid beverages in large quantities besides meat products, for example, the soy protein beverage of DuPont in the United states has the highest market share, good product quality, and good product color, flavor, dispersibility, stability and other aspects. Although similar soybean protein beverage products exist in the domestic market, the quality of the soybean protein beverage products is far from that of DuPont products, and the quality difference is mainly caused by the quality difference of the main raw material soybean protein isolate.
At present, the soybean protein isolate raw material for producing protein solid beverage in domestic market generally has the problems of beany flavor, slight salty and bitter taste, long dispersion time which is generally more than 15s, poor stability and layering generally within 3-5 minutes. These problems have not been solved well, so that the quality of the soybean protein isolate product for domestic beverages can not be improved fundamentally all the time, thereby restricting the development of the domestic protein beverage market to a great extent.
The invention mainly aims to develop a soybean protein isolate product specially used for processing solid beverages by improving and innovating a soybean protein isolate production process and making a great technical breakthrough from the organoleptic properties of the product, such as flavor, taste, dispersibility, stability and the like, so that the overall quality of the product is close to or reaches the advanced level at home and abroad.
Disclosure of Invention
Solves the technical problem
The problems to be solved by the invention are as follows: the soybean protein isolate raw material for producing the protein solid beverage in the domestic market at present generally has some defects, such as beany flavor, slight salty and bitter taste, long dispersion time which is generally more than 15s, poor stability and layering generally within 3-5 minutes. These problems have not been solved well, so that the quality of the soybean protein isolate product for domestic beverages can not be improved fundamentally all the time, thereby restricting the development of the domestic protein beverage market to a great extent. Therefore, a protein preparation method capable of simultaneously improving the flavor, taste, dispersibility and stability of the isolated soy protein is urgently needed in actual production so as to meet the application requirements of the soy protein solid beverage industry.
Technical scheme
The invention aims to provide a preparation method of isolated soy protein, which is simple and easy to implement, has no beany flavor, good mouthfeel, good dispersibility and good stability and is suitable for processing and producing solid beverages.
Firstly, the invention adopts the sterilization flash evaporation treatment before the acid precipitation for the first time, and carries out thermal modification on the protein, thereby not only changing the isoelectric point of the soybean protein and greatly reducing the acid dosage in the acid precipitation process, but also reducing the sodium chloride content in the product and solving the problem of slight salty taste of the product. In addition, the fishy smell components of the protein are greatly removed through vacuum flash evaporation and temperature reduction, and the flavor of the product is effectively improved.
Secondly, in the neutralization process, the diluted weak alkali water is used for dissolving the protein, so that compared with a common concentrated alkali treatment mode, the high pH denaturation and hydrolysis of the protein are reduced, the generation of 'cystine reaction' is prevented, and the bad flavor substances and harmful substances in the product are greatly reduced. In addition, by controlling the lower PH and the high concentration of the protein slurry, the extremely low enzymatic hydrolysis degree is obtained, and the TCA index of the enzymatic hydrolysis soybean meal is always controlled to be 2-5 in the whole enzymatic hydrolysis process, so that the dispersibility of the protein is greatly improved.
Thirdly, the invention further removes the bad flavor substances in the protein by a secondary sterilization flash evaporation process, and the obtained protein product has no beany flavor.
Fourthly, the method of the invention ensures the uniform particle size of the protein by carrying out high-pressure homogenization treatment on the protein slurry, improves the water-dissolving effect of the protein by spraying the surfactant modified phospholipid on line, and improves the dispersion performance of the protein. Finally, the superfine grinding ensures that the particle diameter of the protein product is less than 50 mu m, the protein product can be better and stably dispersed in water, the stability of the protein product is greatly improved, and the protein product can be maintained in water for 30min without obvious layering.

Evaluation of sensory and Property of Soy protein isolate
The commercially available soy protein isolate and the soy protein isolates prepared by the above examples and comparative examples were evaluated for their organoleptic and performance properties, respectively.
The evaluation method is as follows:
(1) the taste and flavor (beany flavor) was rated by 10 skilled sensory raters using a 10-point rating method, wherein:
evaluating the mouthfeel: good (10 min); preferably (8 min); general (6 min); poor (4 cents); difference (2 min);
evaluation of flavor (beany flavor): none (10 min); lighter (8 cents); general (6 min); slightly heavier (4 min); weight (2 min);
the evaluation results were averaged over the scores of 10 evaluators.
(2) And (3) detecting the dispersibility: the dispersion performance of the product is characterized by the dispersion speed, 5g of the isolated soy protein sample is poured into a beaker filled with 100ml of distilled water, the water temperature is controlled to be 55 ℃, a glass rod is used for stirring at the speed of 3r/min until the solution is uniform and no obvious dry powder exists, and the used time is measured.
(3) And (3) stability detection: the time to demix of each sample protein solution was determined.
The evaluation results are shown in table 1:
TABLE 1 results of sensory and Property evaluation of Soy protein isolate samples
