Description

  The present invention relates to a foamable oil-in-water emulsion and a whipped cream obtained by whipping it.

  The whipped cream used for confectionery, bread, etc. is manufactured by whipping and foaming a foamable oil-in-water emulsion. As fats and oils to be blended in such a foamable oil-in-water emulsion, lauric fats and oils have been conventionally used in order to achieve both a sharp mouth melt of whipped cream and good shape retention. Laurin-based fats and oils are fats and oils whose constituent fatty acid is mainly a saturated fatty acid having 12 carbon atoms (lauric acid). There are problems such as poor workability due to easy occurrence, and health problems due to the high content of saturated fatty acids.

  In addition, partially hardened oil is blended for the purpose of improving the shape retention of the whipped cream, but the fatty acid constituting the partially hardened oil contains trans fatty acid, and a large amount of trans fatty acid is contained. Ingestion increases the risk of arteriosclerosis and the like, so the formulation of partially cured oil is unfavorable for health.

  Furthermore, for the purpose of stabilizing the emulsification of the foamable oil-in-water emulsion, a protein molten salt is blended, but when blended, a bitter taste is felt when eating, There is also a problem.

  Patent Documents 1 and 2 disclose foamable oil-in-water emulsions that are substantially free from protein molten salts and trans fatty acids and have a small proportion of saturated fatty acids having 12 carbon atoms among the constituent fatty acids.

  Patent Document 1 discloses a foamable oil-in-water emulsion containing 60% by weight of a triglyceride represented by SUS and 0.3% by weight or more of a triglyceride represented by USU in an oil phase (herein) S represents a saturated fatty acid having 16 or more carbon atoms, and U represents an unsaturated fatty acid having 18 or more carbon atoms).

  Patent Document 2 discloses a foamable oil-in-water emulsion containing 50% by weight or more of St2L type triglyceride and P2O type triglyceride in the oil phase (where St is a stearic acid residue, L Is linoleic acid or linolenic acid residue, P is palmitic acid residue, and O is oleic acid residue).

  It is preferable that the foamable oil-in-water emulsion does not contain a transesterified oil.

  Moreover, in the said foamable oil-in-water emulsion, it is preferable that a saturated fatty acid occupies 47 to 70 weight% with respect to the whole fatty-acid component of the said fats and oils.

  Moreover, in the said foamable oil-in-water emulsion, it is preferable that SUS type triglyceride accounts for 43 to 60 weight% with respect to the said whole fats and oils.

  The second of the present invention is a whipped cream obtained by whipping the foamable oil-in-water emulsion.

  According to the present invention, the protein fusion salt and the transesterified oil are not substantially contained, and although the trans fatty acid is substantially not included as the constituent fatty acid of the fat and oil, the emulsion stability is good, and Whipped cream produced by whipping has good workability because it retains good shape retention, but has good workability, good taste and meltability, and is a healthy foaming oil-in-water emulsion And the whipped cream obtained by whipping the said emulsion can be provided.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.

  The foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention comprises an oil phase containing an oil and fat and, if necessary, an oil-soluble raw material other than fat, and an aqueous phase containing water and a water-soluble raw material as required. It is an oil-in-water emulsion. The said emulsion shows foaming property, The whipped cream of this invention can be obtained by whipping and making this foam.

  Oils and fats are triglycerides formed by ester-bonding three molecules of fatty acid to one molecule of glycerin. The fatty acid constituting triglyceride is referred to as constituent fatty acid.

  In the foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention, the fats and oils are blended so as to occupy 25 to 45% by weight, preferably 34 to 45% by weight, of the total emulsion. When the blending ratio of fats and oils is less than 25% by weight, the flavor of the whipped cream is thin and it may be difficult to feel the richness. When it is more than 45% by weight, the emulsification stability of the foamable oil-in-water emulsion may be deteriorated.

  The foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention contains at least an oil (A) and an oil (B) as an oil.

  Oil (A) is a palm oil middle melting point part. The middle melting point of palm oil is a middle melting point that is obtained by subjecting palm oil to a fractionation method generally applied to edible fats and oils, for example, multistage fractionation or solvent fractionation, and is not transesterified. More specifically, it refers to a component that is a solid component at the temperature at the time of fractionation and that has an ascending melting point of about 25 to 32 ° C. However, as long as the effects of the present invention are exhibited, the rising melting point of the intermediate melting point is not limited to this range.

  The fat (A) that is the middle melting point of palm oil preferably contains a specific amount of SUS triglyceride. Here, the SUS type triglyceride is a symmetric type triglyceride, which is a triglyceride in which a saturated fatty acid is bonded to positions 1 and 3 of glycerol and an unsaturated fatty acid is bonded to position 2. The saturated fatty acid residues at positions 1 and 3 are preferably palmitic acid residues and / or stearic acid residues, and the unsaturated fatty acid residues at position 2 are oleic acid residues and / or linoleic acid residues. Is preferred.

  The SUS type triglyceride preferably occupies 50 to 86% by weight of the oil (A), and more preferably 60 to 75% by weight. When the content ratio of the SUS type triglyceride is less than 50% by weight, good mouth-melting may not be obtained in the whipped cream. On the other hand, when it is more than 86% by weight, the emulsification stability of the foamable oil-in-water emulsion may be deteriorated.

  Fats and oils (A) are blended so as to occupy 43 to 65% by weight, preferably 50 to 63% by weight, of the entire fats and oils contained in the foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention. If the content of the fat (A) is less than 43% by weight, the whipped cream may not be sufficiently hard, and good shape retention may not be obtained. There are cases where the emulsion stability of the oil-in-water emulsion is deteriorated and good mouth-melting cannot be obtained.

  The content ratio of the SUS triglyceride in the foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention is preferably 43 to 60% by weight, preferably 45 to 55% by weight, based on the total fats and oils contained in the foamable oil-in-water emulsion. More preferred. If it is less than 43% by weight, the shape retention may be deteriorated in the whipped cream. On the other hand, when it is more than 60% by weight, the emulsification stability of the foamable oil-in-water emulsion may be deteriorated.

  The fat (B) used in the present invention is a fractionated liquid part of palm oil that has not been transesterified, and has an iodine value in the range of 55 to 90, preferably 60 to 80. The fractionated liquid part is a component that is obtained by fractionating palm oil according to a fractionation method generally applied to edible fats and oils, and is a liquid component at the temperature at the time of fractionation. For example, if multistage fractionation or solvent fractionation can be performed, Good. Specific examples of such a separated liquid part include palm olein, palm super double olein, palm double olein and the like. When the iodine value of the fractionated liquid part is lower than 55, the emulsification stability of the foamable oil-in-water emulsion may be deteriorated. If the iodine value is higher than 90, the cost for producing the fat (B) may be too high.

  Fats and oils (B) are blended so as to occupy 26 to 47% by weight, preferably 26 to 40% by weight, of the entire fats and oils contained in the foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention. When the content of the fat (B) is less than 26% by weight, the foaming stability of the foamable oil-in-water emulsion may be deteriorated or good mouth-melting may not be obtained. The docream cannot be hardened sufficiently, and good shape retention may not be obtained.

  In addition to the above, the fats and oils (A) and the fats and oils (B) are blended so as to occupy 87 to 93% by weight of the total fats and oils contained in the foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention. When the total amount of the fats and oils (A) and the fats and oils (B) is less than 87% by weight, good melting in the whipped cream may not be obtained. On the other hand, if it exceeds 93% by weight, the emulsification stability of the foamable oil-in-water emulsion may be deteriorated, the shape retention of the whipped cream may be deteriorated, the crispness may be increased, or the mouth melt may be deteriorated. is there.

  The fats and oils contained in the foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention further include edible fats and oils other than fats and oils (A) and fats and oils (B). As such fats and oils, vegetable oils such as rapeseed oil, rapeseed oil, soybean oil, safflower oil, corn oil, rice oil, cottonseed oil, fats and oils (A) and fats and oils (B), Examples thereof include animal fats and oils such as milk fat and lard, and fractionated oils, hardened oils, transesterified oils and mixed oils of these fats and oils. Especially, in order to satisfy the content rate of the C12 saturated fatty acid mentioned later, it is preferable that the fats and oils contained in the foamable oil-in-water emulsion of this invention contain lauric fats and oils. Here, lauric fats and oils refer to fats and oils containing a large amount of lauric acid as a constituent fatty acid, specifically, the lauric acid content in the constituent fatty acid may be approximately 35% by weight or more, for example, palm kernel oil, A coconut oil, these fractionation oils, hydrogenated oil, etc. are mentioned.

  However, the foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention preferably does not contain a large amount of transesterified oil from the viewpoint of not impairing the preferred flavor of the whipped cream. Specifically, the emulsion contains or does not contain transesterified oil in an amount of less than 1% by weight, and preferably does not contain transesterified oil. When the content ratio of the transesterified oil is 1% by weight or more, the preferred flavor of the whipped cream may be diminished.

  The transesterified oil refers to fats and oils obtained by transesterifying edible fats and oils. As the edible oils and fats, vegetable oils such as rapeseed oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, palm oil, palm kernel oil, coconut oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, olive oil, milk fat, beef fat, pork fat, fish oil, etc. The animal fats and oils can be exemplified, and those obtained by subjecting these to processing such as hardening, fractionation, and transesterification can also be used. The method for producing the transesterified oil is not particularly limited, and can be produced using a conventional method. For example, a chemical method in which 0.01 to 1.0% by weight of sodium methylate or sodium ethylate is added to the raw oil and fat to cause a random transesterification reaction, or an enzymatic method in which transesterification is performed using an enzyme such as lipase Etc. can be applied.

  Furthermore, it is preferable that the fatty acid constituent fatty acid contained in the foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention has a specific composition. In particular, the saturated fatty acid having 12 carbon atoms (lauric acid) accounts for 2.5 to 7% by weight, preferably 3.5 to 6% by weight, of the total constituent fatty acids. When the proportion of the saturated fatty acid having 12 carbon atoms is less than 2.5% by weight, the emulsification stability of the foamable oil-in-water emulsion may be deteriorated. There is a case that the sima becomes strong or conversely becomes too soft and the workability is deteriorated. In order to satisfy the ratio of the saturated fatty acid having 12 carbon atoms, it is preferable to blend lauric fats and oils in the foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention as fats and oils.

  Moreover, it is preferable that all saturated fatty acids including a saturated fatty acid having 12 carbon atoms occupy 47 to 70% by weight, more preferably 47 to 60% by weight, and more preferably 47 to 55% by weight. More preferably, it occupies% by weight. When the ratio of the total saturated fatty acid is less than 47% by weight, the shape retention may be deteriorated in the whipped cream. On the other hand, if it is more than 70% by weight, it may be unfavorable for health.

  Further, from the viewpoint of health, it is preferable not to contain a large amount of trans fatty acid as a constituent fatty acid of the fat contained in the foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention. Here, the trans fatty acid means an unsaturated fatty acid having a trans type double bond. Specifically, the trans fatty acid is included or not included as a constituent fatty acid so as to occupy a range of less than 1% by weight in the whole constituent fatty acid of the fat. In addition, what is necessary is just to reduce the quantity of the partially hardened oil mix | blended with the foamable oil-in-water emulsion of this invention in order to reduce the content rate of trans fatty acid.

  The foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention preferably does not contain a large amount of protein molten salt. If it is contained in a large amount, the flavor of the whipped cream may be adversely affected, or it is not preferable for health. Specifically, the protein molten salt is contained or not contained in a range of less than 0.02% by weight based on the whole foamable oil-in-water emulsion of the present invention. Examples of the protein molten salt include sodium phosphate, sodium polyphosphate, sodium tripolyphosphate, sodium metaphosphate, sodium hexametaphosphate, trisodium citrate, monopotassium citrate, tripotassium citrate and the like.
