Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain cherry salt having cherry flavor; and to provide a method for producing the same. <P>SOLUTION: The method for producing the cherry salt comprises the following processes: a first process of generating brine by evaporating seawater; a second process of extracting a cherry extract by putting cherry leaves and/or flowers into the seawater; a third process of generating a crystallized salt by evaporating mixture of the brine and the cherry extract; a fourth process of dehydrating the crystallized salt; and a fifth process of drying the dehydrated salt. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a cherry salt with a cherry scent and a method for producing the same.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In the health boom, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-253126 discloses an invention relating to algal salt containing a seaweed extract. The invention disclosed in this publication includes a step of generating water by evaporating water while repeatedly contacting seawater and seaweed, a step of concentrating the water, and incinerating seaweed into the concentrated water. A step of adding and dissolving the generated algal ash and a step of filtering the algal ash-dissolved brine.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The inventor of the present application has come up with the present invention by paying attention to the scent, and an object of the present invention is to provide a salt salt that is a salt with a cherry scent and a manufacturing method thereof.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
Such a technical problem, according to the first aspect of the present invention,
This is achieved by providing a cherry salt characterized by containing a cherry extract extracted by boiling cherry leaves and / or flowers in salt water.
[0005]
The above technical problem is, according to the second aspect of the present invention,
A first step of evaporating moisture from the salt water to produce brine.
A second step of extracting the cherry extract by boiling the cherry leaves and / or flowers in salt water;
A third step of generating salt crystals by evaporating water from a mixture of the brine and the cherry extract;
And a fourth step of dehydrating the crystal of the salt. This is achieved by providing a method for producing cherry salt.
[0006]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The cherry salt according to the present invention is preferably a natural salt made from seawater. Moreover, it is preferable that the salt water used for extraction of a cherry extract is also seawater.
[0007]
【Example】
Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0008]
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a series of steps for producing cherry salt. In the figure, first, seawater pumped from the sea is preferably filtered to remove bacteria and the like, and then put into a kettle, which is heated by steam to evaporate the water in the seawater. Thereby, the brine which is the concentrated salt water (concentration of about 20%) is generated.
[0009]
Separately from the above-mentioned brine production step, cherry leaves and / or flowers are put into seawater, and this is boiled to produce a concentrated solution, and then this concentrated solution is filtered to extract the cherry extract.
[0010]
Put water and cherry extract in a flat pot to evaporate the water. The mixing ratio of the brine and the cherry extract is 6% to 15%, preferably 8% to 12%.
[0011]
Fuel such as soot can be used to heat the flat kettle. In this step, it is preferable to prevent the occurrence of scorching by cooking with low heat while the water is evaporated.
[0012]
Take out the salt crystals produced in the above boiling step from the flat kettle, dehydrate the salt crystals using, for example, a centrifuge to remove excess moisture and bittern, and then dry by eg natural drying. Cherry salt with the scent of cherry blossoms is completed. This cherry salt is provided to consumers in small, sealed bags.
[0013]
Since the cherry salt produced as described above is made from seawater, it is a natural salt containing a large amount of mineral components and can enjoy a faint cherry scent.
[Brief description of the drawings]
FIG. 1 is a process diagram for explaining an example of a production process of cherry salt according to the present invention.

Claims (4)
