Description
本発明は、飲料のゲル化に関し、さらに詳しくは炭酸飲料、果実飲料、野菜飲料、スポーツ飲料およびアルコール飲料などを瞬時にゲル化させるのに好適なゲル化剤に関する。 The present invention relates to gelation of beverages, and more particularly to a gelling agent suitable for instantly gelling carbonated beverages, fruit beverages, vegetable beverages, sports beverages, alcoholic beverages and the like.
従来、加熱や冷却処理を要することなく液状食品をゲル化させる素材として、アルギン酸ナトリウムや低メトキシルペクチンなどの多糖類が知られている。これは、前記多糖類が、カルシウムなどの2価金属イオンによりゲル化するという機構に基づいている。この方法では、ゲル化速度はカルシウムイオンなど2価金属イオンの濃度に依存しているのでカルシウムイオンの濃度を調整することにより、ゲル化速度を簡単に調整することができる。 Conventionally, polysaccharides such as sodium alginate and low methoxyl pectin are known as materials for gelling liquid food without requiring heating or cooling treatment. This is based on a mechanism in which the polysaccharide is gelled by a divalent metal ion such as calcium. In this method, since the gelation rate depends on the concentration of divalent metal ions such as calcium ions, the gelation rate can be easily adjusted by adjusting the concentration of calcium ions.
多糖類は、食品素材として広く利用されていることから、金属イオンでゲル化する低メトキシルペクチンやアルギン酸ナトリウムなどの多糖類素材をつかったゲル化剤がさまざまに提案されている。 Since polysaccharides are widely used as food materials, various gelling agents using polysaccharide materials such as low methoxyl pectin and sodium alginate that gel with metal ions have been proposed.
例えば、特許文献1では、液状食品を適度な堅さにゲル凝固させるキットとして、低メトキシルペクチン、アルギン酸ナトリウム、およびカラギナンから選択される1種または2種以上の増粘剤を含む溶液と、カルシウム溶液とを組み合わせた嚥下補助食品が提案されている。しかし、このゲル化用キットは、増粘剤溶液とカルシウム溶液との二液で構成されているため、それぞれの溶液を予め調製して別々の容器に充填する必要があった。また特殊な密閉溶液が必要であることからコストが割高となるとともに、容器がかさばる等の欠点があり、さらなる改良が求められている。 For example, in Patent Document 1, as a kit for gelling a liquid food to an appropriate firmness, a solution containing one or more thickeners selected from low methoxyl pectin, sodium alginate, and carrageenan, and calcium A swallowing supplement in combination with a solution has been proposed. However, since this gelation kit is composed of two liquids, a thickener solution and a calcium solution, it is necessary to prepare each solution in advance and fill it in separate containers. Further, since a special sealed solution is required, the cost is high, and there are drawbacks such as bulky containers, and further improvement is required.
また、特許文献2では、アルギン酸ナトリウムと無水第二リン酸カルシウムを含有してなることを特徴とするゲル化粉末、及びアルギン酸ナトリウムと第二リン酸カルシウムとを含有してなることを特徴とする中性又はアルカリ性液状食品用ゲル化粉末が提案されている。しかし、このゲル化粉末は、アルコールで湿式造粒するとともにグリセリンを添加して溶解性を高めるなど、煩雑な工程で調製する必要があり、しかもこの方法で調製したゲルの食感は、非常に硬くて脆く、口溶けも悪かった。 In Patent Document 2, gelled powder characterized by containing sodium alginate and anhydrous dicalcium phosphate, and neutral or alkaline characterized by containing sodium alginate and dicalcium phosphate. A gelled powder for liquid food has been proposed. However, this gelled powder needs to be prepared in complicated steps such as wet granulation with alcohol and adding glycerin to increase solubility, and the texture of the gel prepared by this method is very It was hard and brittle and melted in the mouth.
一方、炭酸飲料のゲル化では、ゲル化粉末を添加混合すると激しい発泡とともに容器よりあふれ出てしまいゲル化が困難であり、アルコール飲料ではゲル化粉末を完全溶解させることが困難であることから、上記特許文献では炭酸飲料やアルコール飲料のゲル化については触れられていない。 On the other hand, in gelation of carbonated beverages, gelling powder overflows from the container with intense foaming when added and mixed, making gelation difficult, and alcoholic beverages are difficult to completely dissolve gelled powder, The above patent document does not mention gelation of carbonated beverages or alcoholic beverages.
特許文献3には、別々に包装されたアルギン酸ナトリウム含有溶液と、カルシウム塩含有溶液とからなり、上記アルギン酸ナトリウム含有溶液のpHが3.8〜4.2で、且つ、上記カルシウム塩含有溶液のAWが0.94未満であることを特徴とするpH6.0未満且つ有機酸量0.5%未満の液状食品用瞬間ゲル化剤が開示され、このゲル化剤を使用すれば、pH6.0未満且つ有機酸量0.5%未満の液状食品であれば、炭酸飲料、アルコール飲料等飲料の種類に拘わらず、添加混合するだけで、誰でも確実に均一なゲルを形成させることができ、且つ、その製造には100℃以上の加圧加熱殺菌が不要であるため、特別な設備を必要とせず、品質を保持したまま長期常温保存が可能であるとしている。 Patent Document 3 includes a sodium alginate-containing solution and a calcium salt-containing solution that are separately packaged, and the pH of the sodium alginate-containing solution is 3.8 to 4.2, and the calcium salt-containing solution An instantaneous gelling agent for liquid foods having an AW of less than 0.94 and a pH of less than 6.0 and an organic acid content of less than 0.5% is disclosed, and when this gelling agent is used, the pH is 6.0. If it is less than and less than 0.5% organic acid liquid food, regardless of the type of beverage, such as carbonated beverages and alcoholic beverages, anyone can surely form a uniform gel, In addition, the production does not require pressure heat sterilization at 100 ° C. or higher, so that no special equipment is required, and long-term room temperature storage is possible while maintaining quality.
しかし、本方法も、特許文献1と同様に、別々に包装されたアルギン酸ナトリウム含有液と、カルシウム塩含有溶液、および有機酸とからなる二液からなるゲル化剤であるため、ゲル化させるためには煩雑な手順が必要であり、より簡便にゲル化させる方法が求められていた。 However, since this method is also a gelling agent composed of two solutions consisting of a sodium alginate-containing solution, a calcium salt-containing solution, and an organic acid, which are separately packaged, as in Patent Document 1, in order to cause gelation. Requires a complicated procedure, and a simpler gelation method has been demanded.
本発明は、このような事情に鑑みなされたものであって、その目的とするところは、炭酸飲料、果実飲料、野菜飲料、スポーツ飲料およびアルコール飲料を瞬時にゲル化させるのに好適な一液からなるゲル化剤を提供することにある。 The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and the object of the present invention is one liquid suitable for instantly gelling carbonated drinks, fruit drinks, vegetable drinks, sports drinks and alcoholic drinks. It is in providing the gelatinizer which consists of.
本発明者は、炭酸飲料などの飲料を瞬時にゲル化させるゲル化剤を鋭意検討した結果、低メトキシルペクチンなどの多糖類とカルシウム塩から成る溶液のpHをカルシウム塩が溶解しないpHとし、この液状ゲル化剤を酸性から弱酸性の飲料と混合することで、ゲル化が瞬時に達成されることを見出し、本発明に至った。 As a result of intensive studies on a gelling agent that instantly gels beverages such as carbonated beverages, the present inventors have determined that the pH of a solution comprising a polysaccharide such as low methoxyl pectin and a calcium salt is a pH at which the calcium salt does not dissolve, It has been found that gelation can be achieved instantaneously by mixing a liquid gelling agent with an acidic to slightly acidic beverage, and the present invention has been achieved.
すなわち、本発明は、低メトキシルペクチンおよび/またはアルギン酸ナトリウムとカルシウム塩を含む溶液で、そのpHを6.0以上とする一液からなることを特徴とするゲル化剤に関する。カルシウム塩としては、第三リン酸カルシウムおよび/または炭酸カルシウムが好適に使用できる。 That is, the present invention relates to a gelling agent comprising a solution containing low methoxyl pectin and / or sodium alginate and calcium salt and having a pH of 6.0 or higher. As the calcium salt, tricalcium phosphate and / or calcium carbonate can be suitably used.
本発明の瞬時ゲル化剤は、液状であるため非常に使いやすく、炭酸飲料のみならず果汁飲料、エナジー飲料など飲料の種類にかかわらず、酸性から弱酸性の飲料であれば添加混合するだけでゲル化することができるので、液状食品への添加混合に習熟する必要がなく、誰でも確実に液状食品を均質にゲル化させることができ、従来家庭では作ることができなかった炭酸感のあるゼリーやアルコール感のあるゼリー等を簡単に手作りし、喫食することができる。
また、嚥下困難者が喫食できなかった炭酸飲料やアルコール飲料を、嚥下に適当なゲルに調整することができるので、手軽に喫食できるようになる。
The instant gelling agent of the present invention is very easy to use because it is in a liquid state, and it can be added and mixed only if it is an acidic to slightly acidic beverage, regardless of the type of beverage such as a fruit juice beverage and an energy beverage. Since it can be gelled, it is not necessary to become familiar with the addition and mixing to liquid foods, anyone can surely make liquid foods homogeneously gelled, and there is a carbonic feeling that could not be made at home in the past Jelly and alcoholic jelly can be easily handmade and eaten.
Moreover, since the carbonated drink and alcoholic beverage which a person with difficulty in swallowing cannot eat can be adjusted to a gel suitable for swallowing, it becomes possible to eat easily.
以下、本発明の実施の態様を詳しく説明する。
ペクチンは大きく分けて高メトキシルペクチン(HMペクチン)と低メトキシルペクチン(LMペクチン)の2種類ある。これはメトキシル化ガラクツロン酸の含量で決まり、エステル化度(DE)50%以上を高メトキシルペクチン、50%未満が低メトキシルペクチンである。低メトキシルペクチンは、カルシウムなどの2価金属イオンと反応してゲル化するという性質を持っている。本発明で使用するペクチンは、低メトキシルペクチンであればいずれも好適に使うことができる。低メトキシルペクチンは、一般にDEによりカルシウムとの反応性が異なる。DEが低くなるほどカルシウムなどの二価金属イオンとの反応性は高くなりゲル形成能が高くなる。本発明ではLMペクチンとして、DEが3〜38、さらに好適にはDEが3〜12のものを用いることが望ましい。
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.
Pectin is roughly classified into two types, high methoxyl pectin (HM pectin) and low methoxyl pectin (LM pectin). This is determined by the content of methoxylated galacturonic acid, with a degree of esterification (DE) of 50% or more being high methoxyl pectin, and less than 50% being low methoxyl pectin. Low methoxyl pectin has the property of reacting with divalent metal ions such as calcium to gel. Any pectin used in the present invention can be used as long as it is a low methoxyl pectin. Low methoxyl pectin generally has different reactivity with calcium depending on DE. The lower the DE, the higher the reactivity with divalent metal ions such as calcium and the higher the gel forming ability. In the present invention, it is desirable to use LM pectin having a DE of 3 to 38, more preferably a DE of 3 to 12.
アルギン酸ナトリウムは主に褐藻類に含まれる多糖類の一種である。食品添加物として増粘剤、ゲル化剤、医薬品として胃粘膜保護用剤、歯科印象剤、染料の捺染用の糊、紙のコーティング剤など、広い用途で利用されている。アルギン酸ナトリウムは、低メトキシルペクチンと同様に、マグネシウムイオンやカルシウムイオンなど二価金属イオンを添加するとゲル化することから、本発明でも好適に使うことができる。また、低メトキシルペクチンとの併用でも好適に用いることができる。 Sodium alginate is a kind of polysaccharide mainly contained in brown algae. It is used in a wide range of applications such as thickeners and gelling agents as food additives, gastric mucosa protecting agents, dental impression agents, pastes for dye printing, and paper coating agents. Like a low methoxyl pectin, sodium alginate gels when a divalent metal ion such as magnesium ion or calcium ion is added, and thus can be suitably used in the present invention. Also, it can be suitably used in combination with low methoxyl pectin.
本発明でペクチンをゲル化させるのに好適に用いるカルシウム塩は、第三リン酸カルシウムおよび/または炭酸カルシウムである。これらのカルシウム塩は水への溶解度(20℃)がそれぞれ0.0025g/100g、0.0014g/100gと非常に低い溶解度を持つという特徴がある。そして、この塩は溶液のpHが下がるにつれて解離してカルシウムイオンを放出する。そのため、pH6.0とした溶液中ではほとんど溶解していないため、低メトキシルペクチン溶液あるいはアルギン酸ナトリウム溶液がゲル化するということはない。このゲル化剤溶液を酸性から弱酸性の飲料と混合すると、全体の溶液pHが低下するので、カルシウムイオンが解離してペクチンのゲル化が起こるものと考えられる。ただし、食品衛生法上、カルシウム塩はゲル化剤重量中、1重量%以下となるよう配合する必要がある。 The calcium salt preferably used for gelling pectin in the present invention is tricalcium phosphate and / or calcium carbonate. These calcium salts are characterized by very low solubility in water (20 ° C.) of 0.0025 g / 100 g and 0.0014 g / 100 g, respectively. This salt dissociates and releases calcium ions as the pH of the solution decreases. Therefore, since it is hardly dissolved in the solution having a pH of 6.0, the low methoxyl pectin solution or the sodium alginate solution does not gel. When this gelling agent solution is mixed with an acidic to slightly acidic beverage, the pH of the entire solution is lowered, so that calcium ions are dissociated to cause pectin gelation. However, according to the Food Sanitation Law, the calcium salt needs to be blended so as to be 1% by weight or less in the weight of the gelling agent.
本発明では、更にナトリウム塩を添加することにより、ゲル化剤のpHと反応性を調整することができる。本発明に使用できるナトリウム塩としては、クエン酸ナトリウム、ピロリン酸ナトリウム、ポリリン酸ナトリウム、メタリン酸ナトリウムなどが挙げられ、添加量としては0.01〜0.5重量%が好ましい。ナトリウム塩の種類、およびその添加量を調整することにより、所望の食感を有するゲル化食品を調製することができる。 In the present invention, the pH and reactivity of the gelling agent can be adjusted by further adding a sodium salt. Examples of the sodium salt that can be used in the present invention include sodium citrate, sodium pyrophosphate, sodium polyphosphate, and sodium metaphosphate, and the addition amount is preferably 0.01 to 0.5% by weight. By adjusting the kind of sodium salt and the amount added, a gelled food product having a desired texture can be prepared.
以下、本発明を実施例に基づき具体的に説明する。
《カルシウム塩の検討》
下記表1に示す配合で各種カルシウム塩からなるゲル化剤を調製した。なお、ゲル化剤配合は全て重量%である。表中の配合素材を水に分散して、加熱溶解後、室温まで冷却して調製した。
このゲル化剤30gを炭酸飲料(市販コーラ)300gと混合して、形成されるゲルの性状を観察した。炭酸カルシウムを用いた実施例1、および第三リン酸カルシウムを用いた実施例2は、非常に食感のよいゲルを形成した。一方、第一リン酸カルシウムおよび第二リン酸カルシウムを用いた実験例3と実験例4では、良好なゲルは形成されなかった。これは、一部のカルシウム塩が溶解しゲル化したためと考えられる。これらのカルシウム塩を本発明で使用するためには、ナトリウム塩などの添加によるpH調整が必要となる。
Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically described based on examples.
<Investigation of calcium salt>
Gelling agents composed of various calcium salts were prepared with the formulations shown in Table 1 below. In addition, all gelatinizer mix | blends are weight%. The ingredients in the table were dispersed in water, dissolved by heating, and then cooled to room temperature.
30 g of this gelling agent was mixed with 300 g of carbonated beverage (commercially available cola), and the properties of the gel formed were observed. Example 1 using calcium carbonate and Example 2 using tricalcium phosphate formed gels with very good texture. On the other hand, in Experimental Example 3 and Experimental Example 4 using primary calcium phosphate and secondary calcium phosphate, a good gel was not formed. This is probably because some calcium salts were dissolved and gelled. In order to use these calcium salts in the present invention, it is necessary to adjust the pH by adding sodium salts or the like.
《ナトリウム塩の検討》
下記表2に示す配合で各種ナトリウム塩からなるゲル化剤を調製した。この調製したゲル化剤30gと炭酸飲料(市販コーラ)300gとを混合した。実験例5から実験例14に示すように、いずれのナトリウム塩でも、ゲル化速度はやや異なるものの、良好な食感のゲルを形成した。これら実施例からゲル化剤pHが6.0以上であれば、本発明のゲル化剤に用いることができることが明らかとなった。なお、表中に示した粘度は、ゲル化剤の粘度で、B型粘度計(ローターNo.2、12rpm)、測定温度20℃での測定結果である。
<< Examination of sodium salt >>
Gelling agents composed of various sodium salts were prepared with the formulation shown in Table 2 below. 30 g of the prepared gelling agent and 300 g of carbonated beverage (commercial cola) were mixed. As shown in Experimental Example 5 to Experimental Example 14, any sodium salt formed a gel with good texture, although the gelation rate was slightly different. From these examples, it was revealed that the gelling agent can be used for the gelling agent of the present invention if the gelling agent pH is 6.0 or more. In addition, the viscosity shown in the table is the viscosity of the gelling agent, and is a measurement result at a B-type viscometer (rotor No. 2, 12 rpm) and a measurement temperature of 20 ° C.
《実験例15から実験例17》
下記表3に示すアルギン酸ナトリウム、およびアルギン酸ナトリウムとLMペクチンの併用系のゲル化剤を調製して、このゲル化剤溶液30gと炭酸飲料(市販コーラ)300gとを混合したときのゲル形成を観察した。
いずれの配合でも、炭酸飲料を瞬時にゲル化させることができた。ゲルの食感は、アルギン酸ナトリウムではやや硬い食感で、LMペクチン併用系では、柔らかく滑らかな食感であった。
<< Experimental Example 15 to Experimental Example 17 >>
