【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、流動状食品とそれを包む膜から構成される食品素材及びその製造方法に関する。この食品素材は、保形性を有するため流動状食品のように外観上の欠点もなく、また、流動状食品と同様の咀嚼、飲み込み易さをもつので、種々の用途の食品材料として利用することができる。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
野菜、果実、畜肉類、魚介類、穀類などの食品の中には咀嚼、飲み込みが容易でないものがある。このような食品は物理的処理(加熱、加温等)、生化学的処理(pH、分解酵素等)によって軟らかくすることができるが、そのような処理のみでは咀嚼、飲み込みを容易にできない場合もある。特に、咀嚼、飲み込み能力の劣る人(咀嚼嚥下困難者)には、前記した処理では不十分である。
このため、咀嚼嚥下困難者に対しては食品をミキサー等で流動状にして、咀嚼、飲み込みを容易にしているが、このような処理を行うと、色、形などが元の食品とかけ離れてしまうので、違和感があり食欲を失わせる要因となる。
【0003】
流動状の食品に保形性を付与できれば、前記した違和感をある程度解消できる。流動状の食品に保形性を付与する方法としては、流動状食品をアルギン酸などと混合し、それをカルシウムイオンを含む溶液中に浸漬し、食品表面にアルギン酸ゲルをつくる方法や、流動状食品にゼラチンを添加し、冷却して固化させる方法などが知られている。しかし、アルギン酸を用いた方法では、時間が経つにつれ、表面のカルシウムイオンが内部まで浸透し、食品全体がゲル化してしまい、食品内部の流動性が失われるという欠点がある。また、ゼラチンを用いた方法では、形成されるゲルが脆弱であるため取り扱いが難しく、また、加熱により溶解してしまうためその用途が限定されるという欠点もある。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明の目的は、咀嚼、飲み込みが容易であり、なおかつある程度の硬さを持つ食品素材を提供することにある。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者は、上記課題を解決するため鋭意検討を重ねた結果、流動状食品に保形剤を添加した後、ポリアニオン性高分子を主成分とする内膜とポリカチオン性高分子を主成分とする外膜とからなる2層膜を形成させることにより、咀嚼、飲み込みが容易であり、なおかつある程度の硬さを持つ食品素材を製造できることを見出し、本発明を完成した。
【0006】
即ち、本発明は、流動状食品と保形剤との混合物及びそれを包む多層膜からなる食品素材であって、該多層膜が、ポリアニオン性高分子を主成分とする内膜とポリカチオン性高分子を主成分とする外膜とからなる2層膜、又はその繰り返し構造をとる多層膜であることを特徴とする食品素材である。
【0007】
また、本発明は、流動状食品に保形剤を添加し、冷却、成形した後、その成形物について以下の(1)〜(3)の操作を少なくとも一回行うことを特徴とする食品素材の製造方法である。
(1)ポリアニオン性高分子を含む溶液に浸漬する
(2)ポリカチオン性高分子及び多価金属イオンを含む溶液に浸漬する
(3)水洗し、不要なポリカチオン性高分子及び多価金属イオンを除去する

【0009】
ここでいう保形剤とは、流動状食品に保形性を付与するものであればどのようなものでもよく、例えば、ゼラチン、ペクチン、ジュランガム等の増粘多糖類、熱凝固蛋白質等などが使用できる。流動状食品とは、ミキサーなどで流動状にした食品をいう。ポリアニオン性高分子を主成分とする膜とは、ポリアニオン性高分子を含む溶液に浸漬した後、多価金属イオンを含む溶液に浸漬することにより形成される膜をいう。ポリカチオン性高分子を主成分とする膜とは、ポリアニオン性高分子を含む溶液に浸漬した後、ポリカチオン性高分子を含む溶液に浸漬することにより形成される膜をいう。2層膜の繰り返し構造をとる多層膜とは、前記2層膜の外側にこれと同一構造の2層膜が一つ以上配置されているような膜をいう。
【0010】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a food material composed of a fluid food and a film surrounding it, and a method for producing the same. Since this food material has shape retention properties, it does not have a defect in appearance like a fluid food, and has the same ease of chewing and swallowing as a fluid food, so it is used as a food material for various purposes. be able to.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Some foods such as vegetables, fruits, livestock meats, seafood and cereals are not easy to chew and swallow. Such foods can be softened by physical treatment (heating, heating, etc.) and biochemical treatment (pH, degrading enzymes, etc.), but chewing and swallowing may not be easy by such treatment alone. is there. In particular, the above-described treatment is insufficient for a person with poor chewing and swallowing ability (person with difficulty in chewing and swallowing).
For this reason, for those with difficulty in swallowing, the food is fluidized with a mixer, etc., to facilitate chewing and swallowing. However, when such treatment is performed, the color, shape, etc. are far from the original food. As a result, there is a sense of incongruity and a loss of appetite.
[0003]
If the shape-retaining property can be imparted to the fluid food, the above-mentioned uncomfortable feeling can be eliminated to some extent. As a method for imparting shape retention to a fluid food, a fluid food is mixed with alginic acid or the like and immersed in a solution containing calcium ions to form an alginate gel on the food surface, or a fluid food. A method is known in which gelatin is added to and cooled to solidify. However, the method using alginic acid has a drawback that as time passes, the calcium ions on the surface permeate into the inside, the whole food is gelled, and the fluidity inside the food is lost. In addition, the method using gelatin has the disadvantage that the gel formed is fragile and difficult to handle, and the use thereof is limited because it is dissolved by heating.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
An object of the present invention is to provide a food material that is easy to chew and swallow and has a certain degree of hardness.

[Means for Solving the Problems]
As a result of intensive studies to solve the above problems, the present inventor has added a shape-preserving agent to a fluid food, and then has an inner membrane mainly composed of a polyanionic polymer and a polycationic polymer as a main component. The present inventors have found that a food material that can be easily chewed and swallowed and that has a certain degree of hardness can be produced by forming a two-layer film composed of an outer film.

The food material of the present invention can be produced as follows.
First, a shape-retaining agent is added to a fluid food, and after cooling, it is molded. In addition to the shape-retaining agent, a viscous polysaccharide may be added to the fluid food to adjust the viscosity. Here, the fluid food to be used is not particularly limited, and fluidized foods such as vegetables, fruits, livestock meats, seafood, and cereals can be used. The amount of the shape-retaining agent to be added is not particularly limited as long as it is within the range that solidifies upon cooling.

Here, the polyanionic polymer may be any one as long as it is negatively charged and can form a film. For example, pectin, alginic acid, alginates or derivatives, carrageenan, gellan gum, carboxymethylcellulose, etc. are used. be able to. Examples of alginates or derivatives include sodium alginate, propylene glycol alginate and the like, but are not limited thereto. The concentration of the polyanionic polymer may be determined according to the type of substance used. For example, when sodium alginate is used, it is preferably 0.5 to 2.0% (w / v), and when pectin is used. Is preferably 0.5 to 1.5% (w / v). The immersion time in the solution is preferably instantaneous to 10 minutes, more preferably 10 seconds to 1 minute. The fluid food to be added may be any one, but it is preferable to use the same fluid food used for the first molded product.
