Description

Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for easily making gelatin confectionery in ordinary households.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, generally, a gelatin confectionery is prepared by stirring a food ingredient with a seasoning and water, and then injecting a so-called gelatin solution obtained by dissolving gelatin in hot and cold water, and then cooling the mixture in a refrigerator or the like to make it. Was.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In the above-described manufacturing method, a process for cooling and solidifying in a refrigerator or the like takes time and is cumbersome in terms of work.

The present invention solves such a conventional problem,
An object of the present invention is to provide a method and an apparatus which can produce a gelatin confection in a short time and easily.

Means for Solving the Problems The method of the present invention for achieving the above object comprises a step of crushing, cutting and stirring while cooling an object to be cooked using ice, and charging a gelatin liquid in connection with this step. The process of
Thereafter, a step of stirring the mixture to reach a temperature equal to or lower than the freezing point of the gelatin liquid, and further followed by a coagulating step of the gelatin liquid are provided.

Further, the manufacturing apparatus contains a container having a cutter having an action of crushing-cutting-stirring, accommodating the object to be cooked including ice, a drive source of the cutter, and a lid for closing an opening of the container, The lid has a gelatin liquid reservoir for injecting a gelatin liquid into a container, an injection hole through which the gelatin liquid flows into the container, and an air vent hole located in the lid above the injection hole. A confectionery manufacturing device.

According to the method of the present invention, the object to be cooked is cooled by the ice in the grinding-cutting-stirring step, and when the gelatin liquid is mixed, the temperature quickly reaches a temperature below its freezing point. However, a gelatin confectionery is completed by transferring the mixture to a predetermined container.

The operation of the manufacturing apparatus is as follows. First, an appropriate amount of ice is put into a container together with ingredients, seasonings, water, etc., and the container is closed with a lid.At the same time, a so-called gelatin solution in which gelatin is dissolved in hot water is supplied to the gelatin reservoir of the lid. deep. When the cutter is driven in this state, the food material, ice and the like are crushed and cut, and the seasoning and water are also stirred to form a low-temperature mixture. The gelatin liquid in the gelatin liquid reservoir is injected into the container immediately before or immediately after the start of driving of the cutter, and consequently mixes with the low-temperature mixture to reach a temperature below the freezing point.

Embodiment The embodiment will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the figure, a base 2 in which a drive source 1 such as a motor is installed
A glass container 3 having an upper opening is detachably mounted on the upper part. A substantially cross-shaped cutter 4 is provided below the inside of the container 3.
The shaft 5 projects downward through the bottom wall. The rotational force of the drive source 1 is transmitted to the cutter 4 via couplings 7 and 8 provided at opposite ends of the output shaft 6 and the shaft 5. A concave gelatin reservoir 10 is provided in a lid 9 for opening and closing the upper opening of the container 3, and an injection hole 11 is formed in the lowermost portion thereof, and an air vent hole 12 is formed in an upper peripheral portion thereof.

In the above configuration, the manufacturing process of the gelatin confectionery will be described together with the operation.

First, a solid food material and other food materials such as eggs and milk are charged into the container 3 as desired, and if necessary, sugar, essence of various fruits, and water are added. Then
The upper portion of the container 3 is closed by the lid 9 and the gelatin solution dissolved in hot water is supplied to the concave gelatin solution reservoir 10.
Here, when the cutter 4 is rotated via the drive source 1, the solid food material in the ice and the cold food is crushed and cut, and at the same time, is stirred with other food materials to form a low-temperature mixture.
The gelatin liquid in the gelatin liquid reservoir 10 is also injected through the injection hole 11, and as a result, a mixture having a temperature below the gelatin freezing point is obtained.

Thereafter, the chilled mixture is transferred to a predetermined vessel to complete a gelatin confection.

It is conceivable that the gelatin liquid is replenished to the gelatin liquid reservoir 10 immediately after the rotation of the cutter 4 is started, and a control valve may be provided in the injection hole 11 to appropriately select the injection timing.

Effect of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, a gelatin confection can be made in a short time without any trouble. Further, according to the device of the present invention, since the gelatin liquid reservoir, the injection hole for the gelatin liquid to flow into the container, and the air vent hole located in the lid above the injection hole, it is configured to have
The gelatin liquid can flow into the container gradually and little by little and constantly and smoothly.Therefore, the gelatin liquid is evenly mixed into the object, and by controlling the rotation speed of the cutter, the gelatin liquid is transferred to the object. The amount of air entrainment changes, which, from low to high bubbles,
There is also an effect that a gelatin confection that suits the taste can be obtained.
