Description

  The present invention relates to a confectionery that can maintain a fresh strawberry flavor for a long period of time, and to provide a strawberry jam and an edible dish used in the confectionery.

Koji is not only a nutritionally rich food rich in vitamin C, but also a delicious food that matches sweet and sour, and is characterized by a lovely shape.
However, since persimmon is a fresh food, it is usually served raw as soon as possible after picking or processed into jam or juice.

On the other hand, foods containing a certain amount of moisture, such as jam, are stored between a pair of innermost skins, and they are eaten with the innermost skins directly in the hand without using tableware.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-45979 JP 2003-159005 A

Spiders are easily scratched, and once they are scratched, they tend to rot. Moreover, even if there are no scratches, the freshness tends to decrease and it does not last for a long time, so it is inevitable that unsold cocoons will be sent to disposal or processing. However, when processed into jam or the like, the succulent and juicy texture and acidity tend to be impaired by adding a large amount of sugar or heating for a long time.
On the other hand, consumer preference has recently become luxurious, and large-sized and well-shaped cocoons are preferred as luxury products to sell as ginger. Therefore, small grains or large grains deformed tend to be unsuitable for sale as ginger. However, even such a koji is not inferior to a koji that is regarded as a luxury product in terms of nutritional value and flavor, so consumers can enjoy a peculiar texture and sweet and sour taste in a state close to ginger. It is preferable to have a taste.
The present invention can process the sweet and sour flavor and texture of koji at a low cost by processing small koji, deformed koji, or scratched koji so as not to impair the peculiar acidity and shape of the koji as much as possible. An object is to provide a confectionery that can be stored for a long time.

On the other hand, a confectionery filled with ingredients between a pair of innermost skins has the disadvantage that it is not possible to enjoy the beauty of appearance such as the shape and color of the ingredients filled inside.
Therefore, it is conceivable to use only one of the pair of innermost skins and to provide the foodstuffs in the recesses of the skin. However, the bottom of the innermost skin is often smooth, and when the contained foodstuff and the innermost skin are eaten at the same time, the foodstuff may sag and the hands and clothes may become dirty.
An object of the present invention is to provide a container that is devised in shape so that when the processed rice cake is accommodated in a dish-shaped eaten container and the whole rice cake is eaten, the contained rice cake does not flow down.

The invention according to claim 1 is a strawberry jam, and when heating the cocoon by adding sugar, the cut cocoon is heated separately from the hole-like cocoon, and the heating time is set to the heating of the hall-like cocoon. It is characterized by being shorter than time.
“Hall-shaped cocoons” refers to a single cocoon that has just been taken.

The invention according to claim 2 is characterized in that in the strawberry jam according to claim 1, the cocoon heated by adding sugar and the jelly-like jelly are alternately filled and stored in one container. And
In general, potato jam that is heated with sugar added to the cocoon is called strawberry jam. However, the `` jam jam '' of the present invention is not limited to this, but includes jars with jelly-like jelly. Also say.

The invention according to claim 3 is an edible dish, comprising a bottom surface and a peripheral wall, formed into a plate shape having an open surface facing the bottom surface, and made from food ingredients, the bottom surface It is characterized by providing a projecting ridge that protrudes toward the open surface to form a partition, and having a partition space partitioned by this partition.
The “partition space” is a recess formed by a raised partition, and in the embodiment, the food material is accommodated in the partition space.

The invention described in claim 4 is characterized in that in the edible dish according to claim 3, starch is baked and hardened in the same manner as in the middle skin, ice cream cone, wafer and the like.
“Starch” includes not only cereal flour such as rice, wheat and corn, but also potato flour.

The invention according to claim 5 is the edible dish according to claim 3 or 4, wherein a closed partition is provided in the widest partition space to form a new partition partial space, and the original partition space And the new partition partial space constitute a nesting, and the partition partial space can also constitute a nesting.
The “closed partition” refers to a protruding ridge that is raised in an annular shape, and a depression formed inside the partition is a partition space.

The invention according to claim 6 is the edible dish according to claim 5, wherein one piece connecting the outer and inner partitions in a partition space formed by an outer closed partition and an inner closed partition. A partition is formed.
The invention according to claim 7 is the edible dish according to claim 5, wherein a partition connecting the outer and inner partitions is formed in a partition space formed by the outer closed partition and the inner closed partition. An arbitrary number of two or more is formed, and the original partition space is divided into a plurality of partition subspaces.
The partition connecting the outer partition and the inner partition is not limited to the case where the end point is on the outer partition or the inner partition, but may be on the outside.

  The invention described in claim 8 is a strawberry confectionery, characterized in that the strawberry jam according to claim 1 is accommodated in an edible dish according to claim 3.

The invention according to claim 9 is characterized in that, in the candy cake according to claim 8, a food for flavor addition is applied to the surface of the edible dish on the open surface side.
The “flavor-added food” refers to foods other than strawberry jam, and can be anything that matches the flavor of strawberry jam. The condensed milk of the embodiment is an example of a flavor addition food.

  The invention according to claim 10 is characterized in that, in the candy cake according to claim 8, edible fats and oils are applied to the surface of the edible dish on the open surface side.

In the first and second aspects of the invention, the heating time can be adjusted in accordance with the shape of the raw material koji, so that the taste can be easily adjusted and the koji prototype can be easily held.
In the second aspect of the present invention, when the container is filled, the heated soot and jelly are alternately placed, so that the jelly serves as a cushioning material. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the bag from being out of shape due to an external force applied during transportation or due to its own weight during storage.

In the inventions according to claims 3 to 7, when the edible dish is eaten together with the contained food, the contained food can be stably held, so there is little risk of flowing out, and there is little concern about dirt on hands and clothes. That's it.
In invention of Claim 4, since it can eat with the dish baked and hardened and dried, it can enjoy the crispy texture.
In the inventions according to claims 5 to 7, since there are a plurality of partition spaces in which the food can be stored, the possibility that the stored food will flow out or spill out is further reduced.

In invention of Claims 8-10, since the moist strawberry jam and the crispy edible dish are eaten simultaneously, an unexpected texture is exhibited. In addition, since the strawberry jam is placed in the partition space of the edible dish, it is possible to prevent the strawberry jam from dripping while the food is being eaten, so that there is little possibility that the hands and clothes are soiled by the strawberry jam. In addition, there is no trash after you finish eating sweets.
In the invention according to claim 9, when the strawberry jam is placed on the other ingredients that match the flavor of the strawberry jam, the strawberry jam and the other ingredients are mixed together to further enhance the taste.
In invention of Claim 10, since it can prevent that a container gets wet with the accommodated foodstuff, it can fully enjoy the crispy texture.

1. 1st Embodiment Embodiment of the candy confectionery of this invention is described below. Since this strawberry confectionery is a combination of strawberry jam and edible dish and eats at the same time, first, strawberry jam and edible dish will be described.

(1) Method for producing cocoon jam The cocoon jam of this embodiment is obtained by leaving a prototype of cocoon that is a raw material called a preserve type. By maintaining the original shape, not only the flavor of the cocoon but also the presence of the solid cocoon is to be enjoyed.
Originally, I would like you to taste fresh persimmons without adding additives such as sugar. However, as long as it is a fresh food, it will not last long, so we decided to preserve it as close as possible to fresh strawberries by processing it into jam. For this purpose, the original sweetness and sourness of straw must not be canceled by the sweetness of added sugar by processing into jam. Also, don't boil so much that there is no longer a prototype of the salmon.

  Here, it is appropriate to use small cocoons in the form of holes, and cut and use large cocoon deformed cocoons.

The main ingredients other than koji are sugar and lemon juice. You may add lemon peel and pectin as appropriate.
In general, jam is a processed food utilizing the fact that pectin, a dietary fiber contained in fruits, is changed to a thick substance (jelly). And sugar and an acid are required for gelatinization. The koji itself contains sugar, but it is insufficient for jelly formation, so it is usually added with sugar.
However, in this embodiment, in order to make use of the natural sourness of the koji, the amount of sugar is made smaller than that of a jam using a general koji.
The reason why lemon juice is added is to harden pectin, thicken it, and make it color beautifully.

Since the candy confectionery of the present invention is intended to enjoy the flavor and appearance close to fresh candy, it is necessary to retain the shape and hue close to fresh candy.
Therefore, when making the jam of this embodiment, the heating time is shortened as compared with the case of making a general straw jam. This is because heating for a long time has a difficulty in coloring, and the solid state of the candy cannot be maintained.

  Therefore, the time for heating the hole-shaped soot is about 1 hour to 1.5 hours, and the time for heating the cut soot is about 30 minutes. Because the heating time is different, simmer the hole-shaped rice cake and the cut rice cake separately. In this way, the cut wrinkles have a shorter heating time than the hole-shaped wrinkles. This is due to the fact that the cut cocoon penetrates the sugar quickly inside and easily loses its shape when heated for a long time.

Further, in this embodiment, gelatin is seasoned with persimmon juice to make a jelly, and this is made into a fine persimmon shape and filled into the container together with the boiled persimmon. This is to prevent the cocoon from losing its shape as much as possible so that it can be tasted as close to the appearance as possible.
The jelly is not limited to gelatin, but may be agar.

When filling bottles or cans, first add the jelly-like jelly. Then, put a bowl boiled with sugar on it, put a jelly-like jelly on it again, and put a boiled bowl on top of it. Fill. Even when subjected to vibrations during transportation, the jelly acts as a cushioning material, and the impact is not directly applied to the kite, so that the kite can be prevented from losing its shape.
It should be noted that the presence of jelly around the bag also has the effect that the bag itself is less likely to be scratched when being squeezed out of the bottle with a spoon or the like.

  Containers filled with strawberry and jelly are sealed, so they can be stored for a long time unlike ginger. However, since the ratio of sugar content is lower than that of ordinary jam, it lacks antiseptic properties. Therefore, food preservation additives will be used as appropriate.

(2) Edible dish The edible dish of the present invention is a baked food that is baked using rice flour and wheat flour as the main ingredient, like the middle skin. There is no difference in corn and raw material and manufacturing method.
The shape of the edible dish 1 of this embodiment is demonstrated according to FIGS. 1-3.

The edible dish 1 includes a bottom surface 2 and a peripheral wall 3 and is formed in a plate shape having an open surface 4 facing the bottom surface.
The shape of the bottom surface 2 is not limited to a circle, and may be a rectangle or a heart shape.
Moreover, the peripheral part of the open surface 4, that is, the end part of the peripheral wall 3, is not limited to a simple circular shape, but may have any shape as long as the ease of eating is not impaired.

  An annular ridge 5 protruding from the bottom surface 2 toward the open surface 4 is provided. Hereinafter, this ridge is referred to as a partition. The inner partition space 6 partitioned by the partition 5 forms a recess and can accommodate foodstuffs such as straw jam. Therefore, the partition space 6 may hereinafter be referred to as a food storage unit 6.

Here, the height H of the partition 5 is preferably about 5 mm from the feel of the teeth.
The position where the partition 5 is provided is not limited to the concentric shape with the bottom surface of the edible dish 1 as illustrated, but may be provided at any position in consideration of the effect of the design surface. The size of the partition 5 may be arbitrarily determined in consideration of the amount of food stored in the food storage unit 6.
The size of the outer shape of the edible dish 1 is not particularly limited as long as the size and height are suitable for a confectionery to be held in one hand.

(3) Strawberry confectionery containing strawberry jam in an edible dish The strawberry confectionery of this embodiment is sold in combination after the strawberry jam and the edible dish 1 are separately packaged at a souvenir shop or the like. Note that the edible dish 1 is sealed so as not to get wet, and the strawberry jam is naturally placed in a sealed container such as a bottle or a can.
Just before eating, the strawberry jam is taken out of the container with a spoon or the like and stored in the food storage unit 6 of the edible dish 1. And the edible dish 1 is eaten.

FIG. 4 shows a state in which the strawberry jam 7 is accommodated in the edible dish 1. By providing the partition 5, the strawberry jam 7 can be stably accommodated in the food storage unit 6, and there is almost no fear that the strawberry jam 7 will spill out while eating.
On the other hand, when the strawberry jam 7 is stored in the smooth middle skin 8 of the food storage surface as shown in FIG. 5, the candy jam 7 spills out while being eaten. Cheap.

The feature of this confectionery is that you can always enjoy a texture close to that of fresh strawberries.
Moreover, you can enjoy the crispy and comfortable texture of the edible dish 1 which is also a dried baked confectionery. The contrast between the crispy texture and the moist texture of the mochi is surprising.
Moreover, since the surface of the edible dish 1 is not sticky, even if it eats with a hand directly, a hand will not get dirty. Moreover, since the strawberry jam is housed in the space surrounded by the partitions, there is little risk of flowing out and you can eat without worrying about dirtying your hands and clothes.

(4) Modification a) A food for flavor addition is applied in advance to an edible dish.
I often put milk when I eat salmon. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, the condensed milk 10 is applied to the surface 9 on the open surface 4 side of the edible dish 1. When the strawberry jam 7 is put on the condensed milk 10, the condensed milk 10 is mixed with the strawberry jam 7, and a more refined taste can be provided.
In addition, the flavor-adding food is not limited to condensed milk, and may be fresh cream or custard cream. Or even if it is not a dairy product, what is necessary is just the foodstuffs which the flavor of a strawberry stands out like a red bean candy, for example.
Condensed milk, rice cake, and the like may be sold separately from the rice cake jam and the edible plate 1 without being applied to the edible plate 1 in advance, and may be placed on the edible plate 1 when eating.

b) Apply grease to the edible dish.
By applying oil for foods to the surface of the edible dish 1 on the open surface side, it is possible to prevent the crispy texture from being lost due to the moisture even if it contains a lot of moisture such as strawberry jam.
In addition, it may replace with food-use fats and oils and may apply | coat honey thinly. Furthermore, dampness can be prevented by applying egg white on the surface of the starch dough and then baking it.

2. Second Embodiment In the first embodiment, the edible dish 1 has one partition space 6 in the central portion by one closed partition 5. However, the number of partitions and the number of partition spaces are not limited to one. In short, it is only necessary that the food can be stably stored and is easy to eat. There are various ways of providing the partition, but three examples are given below.

(1) When the annular partition of the edible dish forms a nesting structure The edible dish 1 of the first embodiment has one partition, but in this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. Further, there is a partition 5b inside the outer partition 5a.
A partition space 6a is formed by the partition 5a, and a new partition space 6b is formed by providing the partition 5b therein. The partition space 6b forms a partial space of the partition space 6a. That is, the original partition space 6a and the new partition space 6b constitute a nesting. The partition space 6b itself can constitute a nesting by providing a partition inside thereof. Therefore, the annular partition can be nested many times (not shown in the case of three or more layers).
Since the partition is doubled as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the following advantages are obtained. The eaves jam accommodated in the partition space 6b is unlikely to flow out of the partition 5b due to the presence of the partition 5b, but even if it flows out, it is more difficult to flow out by the partition 5a.

(2) Variety of edible dishes-Part 1
Even in the edible dish shown in FIG. 7, it is possible to sufficiently prevent the food material from flowing out, but by providing one partition connecting the outer partition and the inner partition, the fluidity of the food material containing moisture can be suppressed.
As shown in FIG. 9, the partition 5c which connects the partition 5a and the partition 5b is provided. Even when the liquid food material stored in the food material storage portion 6b flows into the space 6c partitioned by the partition 5a and the partition 5b, the flow is restricted by the partition 5c.

(3) Variety of edible dishes-part 2
In the modified example of the edible dish shown in FIG. 10, the two partitions 5d and 5e which connect the outer partition 5a and the inner partition 5b were provided in the edible dish shown in FIG.
Since the original space partitioned by the partition 5a and the partition 5b is divided into two partial spaces by the partitions 5d and 5e, the object of preventing the outflow of food is easily achieved. Furthermore, by arranging the same or different foodstuffs in each of the divided spaces, it is possible to arrange the items with a good appearance.
The number of partitions that connect the inner and outer partitions may be three or more.

3. 3rd Embodiment (1) The foodstuff to accommodate may be other than strawberry jam.
Although the said embodiment applied the edible dish 1 to the candy cake, the foodstuff accommodated in the partition space 6 is applicable to various things other than candy jam. For example, a fine solid cooked product such as a salad prepared with chopped boiled eggs with mayonnaise, or a liquid cooked product such as curry or beef stew may be accommodated.

(2) Application to tasting foods The edible dish 1 of the present invention can be used for various foods such as solid cooking products and liquid cooking products, and is therefore suitable as a container for tastings.
At department stores and supermarkets, food is mainly put in small containers made of resin and served with a toothpick. However, if the edible dish 1 of this invention is used, the garbage after a sampling will not come out. Since the whole container can be eaten, there is no need for toothpick or spoon. In addition, customers of department stores often go out and go out, but this edible dish is designed to prevent the stored food from flowing out, so there is almost no fear that the clothes will be stained with food.

  In addition, since the quantity of the foodstuff provided as a sample food is one or two, the size of the edible dish 1 may be commensurate with it. However, the partition 5 needs to have a height that prevents the stored food from flowing out.

4). Others The shape of the jelly to be filled in the container to protect the candy is good when it is placed on the edible dish 1 as long as it is in the shape of a candy, but it is not limited to the shape of a candy and may be in the form of fragments. Moreover, the size of each eyelet or fragment is not particularly limited.
Further, the jelly does not necessarily need to have a strawberry flavor, and may not be particularly seasoned, and may have a different flavor such as a coffee flavor. In short, it is sufficient if the taste of the candy is not lost and the shape of the candy can be protected.
Furthermore, it is not always necessary to fill the jelly. The strawberry jam of the above embodiment has a shorter heating time than a normal strawberry jam, so that it does not lose its shape even after boiling. In addition, since the small cocoons are cut as they are and the large cocoons are cut, the size is made uniform to a small size, and when the container is filled, the load due to the weight of the cocoons is not large. Therefore, even if it is not filled with jelly as a buffer material, there is little possibility that the lower ridge will lose its shape due to the weight of the ridge placed thereon.

In said embodiment, the height H of the partition 5 was about 5 mm. However, it is not limited to this as long as the contained food does not flow out and the touch is not deteriorated, and may be set appropriately depending on the size and design of the edible dish 1.
Moreover, the edible dish 1 may be baked after adding the fats and oils for foodstuffs, and a coloring agent suitably to starch.
Furthermore, the shape of the outer edge of the edible dish 1 and the shape of the partition are not limited to a circle or a rectangle, and various designs are conceivable. Since the outer edge is circular, it is not necessary to align the shapes such as making the partition circular. For example, when selling around Valentine's Day, there is room for various ingenuity, such as making the outer edge and the partition into a heart shape and coloring it in a pale chocolate color.
Wafers, cookies, etc. can also be used as edible dishes.

That is, the embodiment disclosed above is an example in all respects and is not restrictive. Therefore, various modifications are possible. However, as long as the modification is based on the technical idea described in the claims, the modification is included in the technical scope of the present invention.
