Description

本発明は、飲食物の酸味の低減及び/又は甘味の増強に関する。詳しくは、酸味の低減及び/又は甘味の増強効果のある風味改良剤、風味改良方法、飲食物及び飲食物の製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to reducing sourness and / or enhancing sweetness of foods and drinks. More specifically, the present invention relates to a flavor improving agent having an effect of reducing sourness and / or enhancing sweetness, a method for improving flavor, a food and drink, and a method for producing food and drink.

人が健康を保持し、増進するためには、日頃から炭水化物、脂肪、蛋白質、ビタミン、ミネラル等の栄養素をバランスよく食事から摂取することが大事である。さらに、近年では、これらの栄養素に加えて、食物繊維を摂取することの重要性がうたわれている。
ビタミン、ミネラル、食物繊維を手軽に摂取するために、野菜や果物のジュースとすることが行われているが、トマト、バナナ、グレープフルーツのように酸味やえぐみを有するものもあり、嗜好面でその改善が求められてきた。例えば、酸味の強いものを改善するために、甘味を増すことが行われているが、甘味を増強するために糖分を多量に添加することになり、糖分の過剰摂取の問題が発生した。そのため、糖分を添加することなく、酸味を抑制するとともに甘味を増強するような技術が求められていた。
In order for people to maintain and improve their health, it is important to take in a balanced diet of nutrients such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins and minerals. Furthermore, in recent years, the importance of ingesting dietary fiber in addition to these nutrients has been emphasized.
Vegetable and fruit juices are used to easily ingest vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber, but some tomatoes, bananas, and grapefruits have acidity and harshness, and their taste is high. Improvement has been sought. For example, in order to improve a strong sour taste, the sweetness is increased, but a large amount of sugar is added in order to enhance the sweetness, which causes a problem of excessive sugar intake. Therefore, there has been a demand for a technique for suppressing sourness and enhancing sweetness without adding sugar.

一方、中鎖脂肪酸有するトリグリセリドには、青汁食品の青臭さ、エグ味等の抑制効果があることが示されている(特許文献1)。しかし、酸味等の改善効果や、甘味の増強効果については何ら記載されていない。 On the other hand, triglycerides having medium-chain fatty acids have been shown to have an effect of suppressing the green odor, astringent taste, etc. of green juice foods (Patent Document 1). However, there is no description about the effect of improving sourness and the effect of enhancing sweetness.

以下、本発明について順を追って記述する。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described step by step.

<風味改良剤>
本発明の酸味を低減及び/又は甘味を増強する風味改良剤は、炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸を有するトリグリセリドを有効成分とする。
<Flavor improver>
The flavor improver of the present invention that reduces sourness and / or enhances sweetness contains a triglyceride having a linear saturated fatty acid having 6 to 12 carbon atoms as an active ingredient.

炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸としては、入手が容易なカプロン酸、カプリル酸、カプリン酸、ラウリン酸を用いることが好ましい。これらの炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸は、炭素数14以上の長鎖脂肪酸や炭素数4以下の短鎖脂肪酸と影響効果が異なるため、中鎖脂肪酸として分類されており、その中で、カプリル酸、カプリン酸が特に好ましい。炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸中、カプリル酸及び/又はカプリン酸の含有率は80質量%以上であることが好ましく、90〜100質量%であることがより好ましい。また、カプリル酸、カプリン酸の比率は、カプリル酸:カプリン酸=90:10〜0:100(質量比)が好ましく、50:50〜0:100(質量比)がより好ましく、40:60〜10:90が最も好ましい。 As the linear saturated fatty acid having 6 to 12 carbon atoms, it is preferable to use caproic acid, caprylic acid, caproic acid, and lauric acid, which are easily available. These linear saturated fatty acids having 6 to 12 carbon atoms are classified as medium-chain fatty acids because they have different effects from long-chain fatty acids having 14 or more carbon atoms and short-chain fatty acids having 4 or less carbon atoms. , Caprylic acid, capric acid are particularly preferable. The content of caprylic acid and / or capric acid in the linear saturated fatty acid having 6 to 12 carbon atoms is preferably 80% by mass or more, and more preferably 90 to 100% by mass. The ratio of caprylic acid and capric acid is preferably caprylic acid: capric acid = 90: 10 to 0: 100 (mass ratio), more preferably 50:50 to 0: 100 (mass ratio), and 40:60 to 40. 10:90 is most preferred.

これらの炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸は、遊離の脂肪酸として含有してもよいが、体内で分解して炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸となるものを用いてよい。具体的には、モノグリセリド、ジグリセリド、トリグリセリド等のグリセリドを構成する脂肪酸として含有させることができる。特に、風味、あるいは摂取した時の口内あるいは食道、胃等での刺激が抑えられる点で、炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸を構成脂肪酸として有するトリグリセリドが好ましく、カプリル酸及び/又はカプリン酸を含有するトリグリセリドがより好ましい。炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸中のカプリル酸、カプリン酸の含有率や比率は前述のとおりである。特に、炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸中に、胃等への刺激が最も少ないカプリン酸の比率が高いトリグリセリドが好ましい。 These linear saturated fatty acids having 6 to 12 carbon atoms may be contained as free fatty acids, but those which are decomposed in the body to become linear saturated fatty acids having 6 to 12 carbon atoms may be used. Specifically, it can be contained as a fatty acid constituting a glyceride such as monoglyceride, diglyceride, and triglyceride. In particular, triglycerides having linear saturated fatty acids having 6 to 12 carbon atoms as constituent fatty acids are preferable in that irritation in the mouth, esophagus, stomach, etc. when ingested is suppressed, and caprylic acid and / or capric acid is preferable. A triglyceride containing is more preferable. The contents and ratios of caprylic acid and capric acid in the linear saturated fatty acids having 6 to 12 carbon atoms are as described above. In particular, triglyceride having a high ratio of capric acid, which is the least irritating to the stomach and the like, among the linear saturated fatty acids having 6 to 12 carbon atoms is preferable.

これら、炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸を構成脂肪酸として有するグリセリドは、炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸とグリセリンをエステル化、あるいは炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸のアルキルエステルとグリセリン又は油脂をエステル交換して製造することができる。 These glycerides having linear saturated fatty acids having 6 to 12 carbon atoms as constituent fatty acids are esterified linear saturated fatty acids having 6 to 12 carbon atoms and glycerin, or alkyl esters of linear saturated fatty acids having 6 to 12 carbon atoms. It can be produced by exchanging ester with glycerin or fat or oil.

炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸を構成脂肪酸として有するグリセリドは、他の脂肪酸も構成脂肪酸として含まれてもよいが、その場合は、炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸を50〜100質量%含有することが好ましく、90質量%以上がより好ましい。最も好ましくは炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸のみからなるトリグリセリドである。なお、炭素数6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸以外の他の脂肪酸としては、例えば、炭素数14〜22の直鎖飽和脂肪酸又は炭素数16〜22の直鎖不飽和脂肪酸を用いることができる。また、炭素する6〜12の直鎖飽和脂肪酸を構成脂肪酸として有するグリセリド以外に、本発明を損なわない範囲でグリセリドを含有させることができる。それらのグリセリドとしては、通常の食用油、例えば、大豆油、菜種油、コーン油、ゴマ油、ゴマサラダ油、シソ油、亜麻仁油、落花生油、紅花油、高オレイン酸紅花油、ひまわり油、高オレイン酸ひまわり油、綿実油、ブドウ種子油、マカデミアナッツ油、ヘーゼルナッツ油、カボチャ種子油、クルミ油、椿油、茶実油、エゴマ油、ボラージ油、オリーブ油、米糠油、小麦胚芽油、パーム油、パーム核油、ヤシ油、カカオ脂、牛脂、ラード、鶏脂、乳脂、魚油、アザラシ油、藻類油、品種改良によって低飽和化されたこれらの油脂およびこれらの水素添加油脂、分別油脂等があげられる。 The glyceride having a linear saturated fatty acid having 6 to 12 carbon atoms as a constituent fatty acid may contain other fatty acids as a constituent fatty acid, but in that case, the linear saturated fatty acid having 6 to 12 carbon atoms is 50 to 100. It is preferably contained in an amount of% by mass, more preferably 90% by mass or more. Most preferably, it is a triglyceride consisting only of linear saturated fatty acids having 6 to 12 carbon atoms. As the fatty acid other than the linear saturated fatty acid having 6 to 12 carbon atoms, for example, a linear saturated fatty acid having 14 to 22 carbon atoms or a linear unsaturated fatty acid having 16 to 22 carbon atoms can be used. Further, in addition to the glyceride having 6 to 12 linear saturated fatty acids having carbon as constituent fatty acids, glycerides can be contained within a range that does not impair the present invention. These glycerides include ordinary edible oils such as soybean oil, rapeseed oil, corn oil, sesame oil, sesame salad oil, perilla oil, flaxseed oil, peanut oil, red flower oil, high oleic acid red flower oil, sunflower oil, and high oleic acid.

以下、本発明について、実施例に基づき具体的に説明するが、本発明はこれら実施例に限定されるものではない。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically described based on examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.

<試験1>
トマト、ニンジン、バナナ、パセリと水を質量比1:1〜2で、ジューサーミキサー(3分)にて混合し、各ジュースを得た。さらに、得られたそれぞれのジュース100gに対して、中鎖脂肪酸含有油脂(中鎖脂肪酸トリグリセリド/カプリル酸:カプリン酸=75:25(質量比) 日清オイリオグループ株式会社製)を1.5g添加し、混合した。中鎖脂肪酸トリグリセリドを配合したジュースを未添加のジュースと風味比較した結果を表1に示した。さらに、トマトジュース、ニンジンジュースを加熱し評価した。また、トマトピューレに同様に中鎖脂肪酸含有油脂を添加し、評価した。中鎖脂肪酸含有油脂の有無による風味比較の結果を表2に示した。
<Test 1>
Tomatoes, carrots, bananas, parsley and water were mixed at a mass ratio of 1: 1 to 2 with a juicer mixer (3 minutes) to obtain each juice. Further, 1.5 g of medium-chain fatty acid-containing fats and oils (medium-chain fatty acid triglyceride / caprylic acid: capric acid = 75: 25 (mass ratio) manufactured by Nisshin Oillio Group Co., Ltd.) was added to 100 g of each obtained juice. And mixed. Table 1 shows the results of flavor comparison of the juice containing the medium-chain fatty acid triglyceride with the juice without the addition. Furthermore, tomato juice and carrot juice were heated and evaluated. In addition, medium-chain fatty acid-containing fats and oils were similarly added to tomato puree and evaluated. Table 2 shows the results of flavor comparison with and without medium-chain fatty acid-containing fats and oils.
