本発明はうま味増強剤に関する。 The present invention relates to umami taste enhancers.
うま味は、甘味、酸味、塩味、苦味とともに基本味と呼ばれる味の一つであり、食材の持ち味を引き立て、料理の味に深みを加えることから、食品の美味しさを構成する重要な要素である。日本においては、うま味をもたらす食材として、かつお節や昆布が古くから利用されており、かつお節のうま味は、アミノ酸であるイノシン酸の他に、核酸のうま味などが知られ、かつお節自体の香りがうま味を増強することも知られている(非特許文献1)。 Umami is one of the basic tastes, along with sweetness, sourness, saltiness, and bitterness. Umami is an important element that makes up the deliciousness of food because it enhances the inherent flavor of ingredients and adds depth to the taste of food. . In Japan, dried bonito and kelp have long been used as ingredients that bring about umami. The umami of dried bonito is known not only from the amino acid inosinic acid, but also from the umami of nucleic acids. It is also known to enhance (Non-Patent Document 1).
他方、スモークチーズ、ハム、ベーコン等をはじめとする燻製料理は、燻すことで水分活性を抑え、殺菌性のある香気をまとうことで日持ちを向上させる他、特有の香りにより燻製する前に比べ美味しさが増すことが知られている。 On the other hand, smoked dishes such as smoked cheese, ham, bacon, etc., are smoked to suppress the water activity, and the bactericidal aroma improves the shelf life, and the unique aroma makes it more delicious than before it is smoked. known to increase.
しかし、かつお節や燻製物は、上記のとおり特有の強い香りを有することから、食品本来の香りを損なうことがあり、うま味の増強と食品本来の香りの維持は両立できない知見が多かった。 However, since dried bonito and smoked products have a unique strong aroma as described above, they may impair the original aroma of the food, and there are many findings that enhancing umami and maintaining the original aroma of food cannot be compatible.
一方、4-エチルグアイアコールは、かつお節中に微量含まれていることが知られているが(非特許文献2)、かつお節の香気を構成する上での重要な成分とはみなされていない(非特許文献3)。その他、当該物質に関しては、4-エチルグアイアコールを複数の成分と組み合わせることにより自然な魚介類フレーバーを得る技術(特許文献1)、魚節エキスに4-エチルグアイアコールを複数の成分と組み合わせて配合することにより魚節フレーバーを得る技術(特許文献2)、4-エチルグアイアコールと4-エチルフェノールを併用した料理のだし感を増強できる醤油(特許文献3)、4-エチルグアイアコールと特定の香気成分3~5種を組み合わせただし様香気付与香料組成物(特許文献4)が報告されているが、4-エチルグアイアコール単独でうま味を増強する知見は見出されていなかった。 On the other hand, 4-ethylguaiacol is known to be contained in a small amount in dried bonito (Non-Patent Document 2), but it is not considered an important component in composing the aroma of dried bonito (non- Patent document 3). In addition, regarding this substance, a technique to obtain a natural seafood flavor by combining 4-ethylguaiacol with multiple ingredients (Patent Document 1), and a combination of 4-ethylguaiacol and multiple ingredients in a dried fish extract. A technique for obtaining fish flavor (Patent Document 2), a soy sauce that can enhance the soup stock feeling of dishes using a combination of 4-ethylguaiacol and 4-ethylphenol (Patent Document 3), 4-ethylguaiacol and a specific aroma component 3 A combination of up to 5 species has been reported to impart a savory flavor (Patent Document 4), but no finding has been found that 4-ethylguaiacol alone enhances the umami taste.
4-プロピルグアイアコールは、魚介系のフレーバーの素材として知られており、魚介類フレーバーの製造方法(特許文献5)、シーフードフレーバーの製造方法(特許文献6)などが公知となっているが、うま味を増強する知見は見出されていない。 4-propyl guaiacol is known as a material for seafood flavors, and methods for producing seafood flavors (Patent Document 5) and seafood flavors (Patent Document 6) are known. No findings have been found to enhance
γ-ノナラクトン、バニリン及びアセトバニロンは、香料素材として公知の物質であり、バニリンについては、バニリンと特定の香気成分4~5種を組み合わせだし様香気付与香料組成物(特許文献4)が公知となっているが、うま味を増強する知見は報告されていない。 γ-Nonalactone, vanillin, and acetovanillone are substances known as perfume materials. As for vanillin, a dashi-like scent-imparting perfume composition (Patent Document 4), which combines vanillin with 4 to 5 specific scent components, has become known. However, no findings have been reported that enhance umami.
また、2-エトキシ-4-ビニルフェノールについては、香料素材としての知見が報告されておらず、うま味を増強する知見についても当然報告されていない。 In addition, 2-ethoxy-4-vinylphenol has not been reported as a flavor material, nor has it been reported that it enhances umami.
本発明の課題は、食品本来の良好な香りの特徴を活かしながらうま味を増強することができるうま味増強剤を提供することにある。 An object of the present invention is to provide an umami enhancer capable of enhancing umami while making use of the good aroma characteristics inherent in food.
本発明者らは、数百種類あると言われるかつお節香気から、うま味を増幅させる香気成分をスクリーニングし、鋭意研究の結果、4-エチルグアイアコール、4-プロピルグアイアコール、2-エトキシ-4-ビニルフェノール、γ-ノナラクトン、バニリン及びアセトバニロンに飲食品のうま味増強効果を見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。これらの化合物は強い燻製臭を有さないことから、適量添加することで、燻製臭が付与されることなく、数々の飲食品のうま味を増強することができるものであった。 The present inventors screened the aroma components that amplify the umami from the bonito flakes, which are said to have several hundred types, and as a result of intensive research, 4-ethylguaiacol, 4-propylguaiacol, 2-ethoxy-4-vinylphenol , γ-nonalactone, vanillin and acetovanilone have been found to enhance the umami taste of food and drink, and the present invention has been completed. Since these compounds do not have a strong smoky odor, by adding an appropriate amount, they can enhance the umami of various foods and drinks without imparting a smoky odor.
すなわち、本発明は以下のとおりである。
