Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a frozen food, a method for producing the frozen food, and a fried food.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Heretofore, in the case of fried rice such as tempura and fry, it is difficult to distinguish the contents of fried food and the like from the appearance because the fried material is covered with a roller and fried in oil. Therefore, the inventor has developed a frozen fried food by attaching a roller to the entire outer peripheral surface of the fried material and attaching a small piece of vegetables or the like to the roller without the surface being covered with the roller. JP-A-5-146262). According to this frozen food, since the topside of the topped pieces is not covered by the rollers, the unfried pieces of the small pieces exhibiting the colors of vegetables and the like are integrally bound to the golden color of the rollers, visual and visual. Good fried food with good taste can be obtained.

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional frozen food, since the surface side of small pieces of vegetables and the like is not covered with rollers, the small pieces of fried ingredients and vegetables and the like covered with the rollers are It has been found that there is a problem that a difference occurs in an appropriate frying time, and that the small pieces lose shape due to excessive heat. In particular, in the case of a small piece containing a sugar, there is a problem that the small piece is burnt and turns blackish, not only impairing the appearance but also impairing the original taste.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a frozen food and a frozen food in which small pieces that are topped when frying are not scorched and the color of which is bright. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for producing the same and a fried food.

[0005]

The present invention has the following arrangement to achieve the above object. That is, the frozen food according to the present invention is a small part that can be fried and eaten vegetables and the like, in a part of the water-containing rollers that cover the entire outer peripheral surface of the fried material used for fry and the like. It is characterized in that the surface of the small piece is covered with a roller so that the small piece surface can be seen through from the outside, and the small piece such as the vegetable and the fried material are integrally bound by the frozen roller. Since the small pieces can be seen through from the outside, the small pieces can be identified. In this case, breadcrumbs may be adhered to the rolls of the fried food except for the small pieces, if necessary. It is preferable to add a sugar to the inside of the roller covering the small pieces, since the transparency of the roller at the time of frying is increased.

[0006] In the method for producing frozen food according to the present invention, a moromi containing water is adhered so as to cover the entire outer peripheral surface of the fried material to be used for deep-frying such as fry, and the fried material is attached to the fried material. A small piece that can be fried and eaten, such as vegetables, is attached to a part of the roller that covers the entire outer peripheral surface of the fried material,
Next, a roller is attached to the surface of the small piece so thinly that the surface of the small piece can be seen through from the outside, and then the fried material to which the small piece such as the vegetable is attached is frozen in a freezing atmosphere. I have. Further, the fried food according to the present invention is characterized in that the above-mentioned frozen food is fried with oil without thawing.

[0007] When the frozen food is fried in oil in this manner, the transparency of the thinly covered small pieces increases, and the small pieces of vegetables and the like appear to be floating, which is visually preferable. In particular, when sugar is contained in the small piece or the roller covering the small piece, when fried in oil, the sugar retains moisture and suppresses the scattering of moisture, so that the transparency of the rollers is further increased, which is preferable. . Also,
Since the small pieces of vegetables and the like are thinly covered with the rollers, it is possible to prevent the small pieces from being overheated when frying the frying material with oil, and to prevent the small pieces from being deformed or discolored due to scorching. Therefore, the taste of small pieces of vegetables and the like is not impaired, and it is possible to enjoy a fresh taste of a mixture of fried ingredients and small pieces of vegetables and the like.

[0008]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail. As the fried material used in the present invention, materials such as seafood, poultry, meat, vegetables, fruits, and the like conventionally used for fried rice can be used. Here, the roller fried is a fried material in which water-containing rice chaff is attached to the entire outer peripheral surface and fried with oil, and examples thereof include tempura and fry. In addition, cutlets, croquettes, and the like are also included in the fly.

Small pieces that can be fried and eaten, such as vegetables, include vegetables such as burdock, pumpkin, lotus root, asparagus, and rakkyo, fruits such as cherry, pineapple, and raisins, and seafood such as shrimp, Processed foods such as sausages can also be used. In short, any food that can be fried and eaten can be used.

[0010] These small pieces of vegetables or the like may be raw or may be cooked in advance and soaked in a predetermined taste. Cherries, pineapples and the like may be canned goods. Further, it is preferable that small pieces such as vegetables are sliced or the like so that heat can easily pass through and fry when fried in oil.

In the present invention, small portions of fried food, such as fried foods, which can be fried and eaten, are partially covered with water-containing rollers covering the entire outer peripheral surface of the fried material. It is important that the side is covered with a roller so thinly that it can be seen through from the outside, and that the small pieces of vegetables and the fried material are integrally bound by the frozen roller. Here, the thickness of the roller that covers the surface of the small piece thinly is
The thickness is small enough that the color of the small pieces can be seen through when fried with oil, and the thinner the better, the better.

As the water-containing roller that covers the entire outer peripheral surface of the fried material, for example, one obtained by mixing flour and water, or one further containing eggs can be used. As the roller covering the surface of the small piece, a mixture obtained by stirring flour with water can be suitably used.
It is preferable that the roller covering the small piece has a lower viscosity than the roller covering the fried material, so that the small piece adheres to the surface of the small piece. In addition, it is preferable to add about several percent of sugar such as sugar to the time of covering the small pieces.

[0013] As a manufacturing method, first, a water-containing tuna is adhered so as to cover the entire outer peripheral surface of the fried material to be fried at the time of fry or the like. Next, small pieces that can be fried and eaten, such as vegetables and the like, in which the rollers are thinly attached to the fried ingredients so that they can be seen through from the outside, are attached to a part of the rollers that cover the entire outer peripheral surface of the fried ingredients. Next, the fried ingredients to which the small pieces of vegetables and the like are attached are frozen in a freezing atmosphere.

In order to attach the rollers to the fried material, the fried material is sunk in the above-prepared rollers. Then, a small piece of vegetables or the like is pressed against a required portion of the fried material already covered with a roller, and is temporarily attached to the fried material. Thereafter, if necessary, bread crumbs, wheat flour, or the like may be sprinkled on the ingredients of the fried material and adhered. In this case, bread crumbs and the like adhere to the fried ingredients covered with the water-containing rollers, but bread crumbs and the like do not adhere to the surface side of small pieces of vegetables and the like because they are not covered with the rollers. Next, a roller is separately applied to the surface of the small piece of vegetables or the like with a brush or the like so that the surface of the small piece can be seen through.

The fried material with small pieces of vegetables and the like adhered to the roller containing the moisture that covers the outer peripheral surface as described above is frozen, and the frozen content of water between the fried ingredients and the small pieces of vegetables and the like is obtained by freezing. The rollers are frozen, and the two can be completely united. In such freezing, it is preferable to place the fried material to which small pieces of vegetables and the like are attached in a freezer maintained at a temperature of about -35 ° C. or lower and perform quick freezing.

[0016] As described above, the frozen food in which the small pieces are thinly adhered to the surface of the small pieces and the frozen pieces are thin can see through the small pieces from the outside because the thin pieces are small, and the topping material can be identified. In the present invention, the frozen food thus obtained is fried in oil without thawing to form a fried food. When the frozen food is fried in oil as described above, the transparency of the roller that covers the small piece thinly increases, and the small piece of vegetables or the like floats up, and is visually pleasing. In particular, when sugar is contained in the small pieces or when covering the small pieces, when fried in oil,
This sugar retains water and suppresses the scattering of water, so that the transparency of the rollers is further increased, which is preferable. In addition, since the small pieces of vegetables or the like are thinly covered with the rollers, it is possible to prevent the small pieces from being overheated when frying the frying material with oil, and to prevent the small pieces from being deformed or discolored due to scorching. Therefore, the taste of small pieces of vegetables and the like is not impaired, and a fresh taste of mixed fried ingredients and small pieces of vegetables and the like can be enjoyed. The shape of the fried food can be any shape by arbitrarily shaping the shape of the fried material, and may be combed for easy eating.

[0017]

EXAMPLES Example 1 A fried material for croquette containing a tartar sauce was formed into a bite-sized croquette-like molded product.
Dip this molded product into a mixture of flour and water,
A roller made of flour and water was adhered to the outer peripheral surface of the molded article. Separately, small pieces of lotus root sliced were pressed against a part of the above-mentioned molded article to which the porcelain had been adhered, and the whole was sprinkled with flour, and excess flour was beaten off. Next, the small piece of the lotus root was brush-coated with a roller made of flour and water so that the surface of the small piece could be seen through from the outside. After that, the molded product with the sliced lotus root attached,
It was placed in a freezer maintained at -40 ° C and rapidly frozen to obtain a frozen food. The lotus root slices (small pieces) were united together because the rollers between the molded product and the slices were frozen. The frozen food was fried in oil without thawing to obtain fried food. The lotus root slices were almost transparent at the time on the slices, were visible from the outside, and were visually good. In addition, there was no brown spots on the sliced lotus root, and there was almost no discoloration, and the croquette containing the tartar sauce and the crispy texture of the lotus root could be tasted at the time of eating.

Example 2 Frozen foods were prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 except that a Wiener sausage was used in place of the sliced lotus root. The wiener sausage was bound together with the fried ingredients by the time of freezing. Wiener sausage was also visible through the thin stalks. This was fried in oil without thawing to obtain fried food. The thin rollers covering the wiener sausage became transparent, and the wiener sausage was not scorched and a good-looking fried food was obtained. The taste was also good.

Example 3 A frozen food was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 except that various small pieces shown below were used in place of the sliced lotus root. Burdock slices Pumpkin slices Raccoon chunks Asparagus flakes Pineapple flakes Dried raisins Cherry Steamed shrimp All the flakes were bound together with the fried material by the time they were frozen. Also, the small piece was visible through the thin roller covering the small piece. These frozen foods were fried in oil without thawing to obtain fried foods. None of the small pieces was browned, the moisture was properly retained, and the taste was not impaired even when eaten. Moreover, the thin rollers covering these became transparent, the small pieces were clearly visible, and a good-looking fried food was obtained. In the case of small pieces of sugar (eg, burdock pieces), a small amount of sugar is added to the small pieces used for the small pieces. It became visible. When the sugar was contained in the small pieces, it was found that the sugar bleeds out from the small pieces when frying with oil without adding the sugar to the rollers, and the transparency of the rollers was increased.

Although various preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and many modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. Of course.
