Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for producing a fine powdered nutritional supplement from eel or eel bone as a nutritional supplement such as calcium.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art It is widely known that boiled and dried animal bones are powdered and used as nutritional supplements such as calcium. Most of these fine powders consist of terrestrial animals such as cows and pigs, and fishes such as horse mackerel and sardine that live near the sea surface, and do not require special techniques for production.

[0003] Animal bone contains various mineral components including calcium, and is used for human health such as prevention of osteoporosis. However, the fact is that bones of animals mainly composed of calcium phosphate are not always welcomed in terms of low absorption rate and containing harmful trace components. In contrast, the bones of eels and eel eggs laid or resident in the deep sea (hereinafter referred to as “eels”) contain a large amount of calcium and minerals, which are important as nutrient sources for the elderly and people with weak bones. Role is expected. Bone such as eel is a by-product generated when making eel kabayaki, etc., and is advantageous in terms of manufacturing cost.

[0004]

However, when producing fine powder by crushing bones of eel and the like, heating, drying and crushing are performed in the same manner as making fine powder from sardine, horse mackerel, and mackerel bone. However, it is difficult to separate bone marrow fluid from eel and other bones, so it is not possible to obtain a fine powder with a clean, white appearance, and the bone marrow soaks and leaves an odor, making it unsuitable for drinking. There is a problem.

[0005] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to remove the bone marrow from bones of eel and the like, and to process the bones of eel and the like, which are suitable for drinking and have a high absorption rate, as a raw material without white odor. To provide a fine powder nutritional supplement.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention separates bones and attached meat from fish bones extracted from eel or eel fish bodies and minces the separated bones. The following means are employed for a method for producing a fine powder nutritional supplement using bones such as eel as a raw material to obtain fine powder by drying and then pulverizing the bone granules to form granules. .

[0007] First, the method includes a step of removing bone marrow fluid from bone by heating the above-mentioned bone grain at a pressure of 2 atm or more to a temperature of 110 to 140 ° C for a predetermined time.

[0008] Secondly, it is assumed that the fine bone formed by crushing the above-mentioned bone grains includes a sterilizing and deodorizing step of irradiating infrared rays having a wavelength of 3 to 12 μm for a predetermined time, and the sifting is carried out by sieving this. Easy fine powder is obtained.

[0009] Here, the bone grains are obtained by separating bones from fish bones taken out of fish bodies and pulverizing them to the size of rice grains. Further, the fine bone refers to a bone marrow fluid obtained by removing bone marrow fluid from the above-mentioned bone grain in a bone marrow fluid removing step, and the powder refers to bone powder of irregular size obtained by drying and crushing the fine bone. The fine powder is obtained by sieving this powder and preparing particles only in the fine powder.

The heating time in the bone marrow fluid removing step is 10 to
It is 30 minutes, but preferably 12 to 18 minutes. This is a time suitable for removing the bone marrow fluid and extracting only the active ingredient.

For the same reason, it is desirable that the irradiation time of infrared rays in the sterilization / deodorization step is 7 to 12 minutes. If the time is less than 7 minutes, the effects of sterilization and deodorization are insufficient.
If it is longer than 2 minutes, it causes deterioration of the quality, which is not preferable.

[0012]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the production process of the present invention will be described.
This will be described with reference to the process drawings. FIG. 1 shows an outline of the manufacturing process of the present invention. The reference numerals in this figure use arithmetic numerals for process names, and are surrounded by ellipses indicated by right-pointing arrows from some process frames. Names are given using alphabets. These names are temporary names given to the intermediate products produced by the process.

First, it is necessary to supply raw materials as a preparatory action before entering this step. The raw material is the fish bone that comes out when you cut it to cook eel, etc., but this bone a is a branch that separates the head and internal parts from the remaining fish bone part after removing the meat part used for kabayaki etc. 1 obtained. At this time, care must be taken because if the bone a is not immediately washed at the time of separation, blood may permeate the bone and may result in coloring of the final product. Normally, these bones a are collected in a frozen state, but of course, when the production facility of the present invention is located near a processing plant for eel or the like, it is also possible to supply them without freezing. This is more cost effective.

Thus, the bone a separated from the eel or the like supplied to the production facility of the present invention by the blanching step 1
Enters the first cleaning step 2. In the first washing step 2, about 30 kg of the bone a is put into the boiling boiler at a time, and is boiled again and taken out after a lapse of 10 to 15 minutes. Further, this is put into a food mixer, and rotated for about 3 to 5 minutes together with almost half the amount of water to agitate both to remove only the liquefied meat juice. In the first washing step 2, the operation of stirring and removing the juice is repeated two or three times to obtain bones having no juice attached to the surface.

The bone from which the meat has been removed by the primary washing step 2 is subjected to a mincing step 3. Here, the bone is put into a mincing machine and finely chopped into rice grains. Here, the bone in the rice grain state is referred to as a bone grain.

Next, this bone b is subjected to a secondary washing step 4
The deposits attached in the mincing step 3 and the like are removed. In the secondary washing step 4, the adhering matter is washed out by simultaneously introducing about 5 kg (about 150 kg) of the bone particles b into a food mixer and stirring the mixture with approximately twice the amount of water for 10 to 15 minutes.

The bone b washed in the secondary washing step 4
After the water is drained, it is packed in a retort bag (heat-resistant bag) at a ratio of 400 CC water to 500 g of bone particles in preparation for the next high-pressure / high-temperature treatment step. The bone particles b put in the retort bag are put into a high-pressure heater together with the retort bag and subjected to the next high-pressure high-temperature treatment step 5a.

The high-pressure and high-temperature treatment step 5a is a step for removing the bone marrow fluid remaining in the core of the bone grain b. The pressure is set to 2 to 3 atm (2 to 3 kgf / cm ² gauge pressure). Heat at a temperature of 110-140 ° C for about 15 minutes. This time may be 10 to 30 minutes, but is preferably 12 to 18 minutes.

Next, the bone b subjected to the high pressure and high temperature treatment is converted into the following 3
In the next washing step 5b, an operation of separating the fat component from the bone marrow from the bone particles is performed. Here, the operation of putting the bone grains in a food blender together with about three times the amount of water and stirring for 15 to 20 minutes is repeated a few times. Thereby, the fat component of the bone marrow is completely removed from the bone grain b. Here, a bone from which the oil and fat component of the bone marrow is completely removed from the bone grain is referred to as a fine bone and is represented by a symbol c. High pressure and high temperature treatment process 5a
And the third washing step 5b are combined to form a bone marrow fluid removing step 5.

Next, the fine bone c is drained and then dried in a hot air drying step 6. This hot air drying process 6
Is dried by placing the fine bone c in a hot air drier and heating at a temperature of 65 ° C. for several minutes.

The dried fine bone c is then crushed in a crushing step 7 to become a powder d. In the pulverizing step 7, the fine bone c is put into a rotary pulverizer, and an impact is applied to the pulverized c.
Make 200 mesh powder. Powder d produced by grinding
In the next sterilization / deodorization step 8, the quality is close to that suitable for drinking.

In the sterilization / deodorization step 8, the powder d is put into an infrared irradiation device, and infrared rays (electromagnetic waves) having a wavelength of 3 to 12 μm,
In particular, irradiation with far infrared rays of about 5 μm performs sterilization and deodorization and activates cells. The time of infrared irradiation is suitably from 7 to 12 minutes.

In the powder sterilized and deodorized, only fine powder is sieved in a particle sorting (sieving) step 9 in the next step. In this step, a fine powder e of 200 mesh or less is sieved from the powder using a classifier equipped with a 200 mesh sieve. 200 screened
The fine powder e having a mesh or less can be drunk as it is with a spoon or the like and put into a mouth. The fine powder thus produced is bottled or bagged to produce a fine powder nutritional supplement product f.
It can be shipped as

In the above steps other than the bone marrow fluid removing step and the sterilizing / deodorizing step, the same fine powdered nutritional supplement can be obtained by other means.

[0025]

According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain a fine powdered nutritional supplement made from bones of eel and the like, which are white and have no harmful components and are easy to drink. This fine powder nutritional supplement is very rich in calcium component,
Easier drinking contributes to an increase in demand and, as a result, contributes to improving the skeleton and other health of the elderly, such as osteoporosis.
