【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、発泡成分の発泡により生成した気泡が多数内包された清涼感のある外観を有し、しかも、喫食時に強い発泡感が感じられる発泡性ゼリーを、喫食者が発泡の様子を見ながら簡単に手作りできる発泡性ゼリー用粉末に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
一般に、発泡性を有するゼリーとしては、例えば特開平1−222744号公報に記載の清涼性ゲル状食品がある。
このゲル状食品は、ジェランガムに、カラギナン等を併用した膠質水溶液に低温で炭酸ガスや炭酸水等を加えて容器に密封したのち、容器ごと加熱して容器内で炭酸ガスを発生させて気泡を生成し、冷却してゲル化し、気泡の入ったゲル状食品を得るものである。
しかしながら、このゲル状食品は、製造時に、膠質水溶液と炭酸ガスとを混合した後に加熱する。この加熱によって炭酸ガスは激しく発泡すると同時に膠質水溶液から逃散してしまう。これを防止するために、この方法では、耐圧,耐圧性の密閉容器を用い、この中で膠質水溶液と炭酸ガスとを混合している。
以上のように、この方法で得られるゲル状食品は、特殊な密閉容器の中で工業的に生産されるものであり、家庭で喫食者が簡便に手作りできるものではない。
また、ゲル状食品を長期保存すると、喫食したときに発泡感が弱いか、もしくは全く無くなっている等の問題点がある。
【0003】
また、他の方法としては、特開昭62−296851号公報に記載の気泡性食品の製法が挙げられる。
この方法は、キサンタンガム等の膠質原料とローカストビーンガム等のゲル化材料と、炭酸ナトリウム等の炭酸ガス発生物質と有機酸と水とを混合し、常温で放置して、炭酸ガスを発生させて容積を増加させ、流動性のある即席シェイクドリンクを得るものである。
しかしながら、この方法では、製造過程においてゲル化材料が加熱されないため、ゲル強度が付与されず、一定の形状を保つゼリーデザートとすることができない。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明はこのような事情に鑑みなされたものであって、その目的とするところは、発泡成分の発泡によって生成した気泡が、ゼリー中に多数内包され、しかもこの気泡中の炭酸ガスが長時間保持され、喫食時に口中で強い発泡感が感じられる発泡性ゼリーを、家庭で簡単に手作りできる発泡性ゼリー用粉末を提供するにある。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記の目的は、発泡成分の一方及び増粘多糖類と、発泡成分の他方とが別々に包装されるか、もしくは、発泡成分と、増粘多糖類とが別々に包装された発泡性ゼリー用粉末であって、該増粘多糖類が、カラギナンとローカストビーンガムとを含有し、かつ、前記発泡成分と増粘多糖類との重量比が、1:0.6〜2に設定されていることを特徴とする発泡性ゼリー用粉末、及びカラギナンとローカストビーンガムとを含有する増粘多糖類溶液を35〜55℃に調整したのち、発泡成分と接触させ、該発泡成分の発泡により生成する気泡を、前記増粘多糖類溶液に内包せしめることにより発泡性ゼリーを調製する上記発泡性ゼリー用粉末によって達成される。
【0006】
すなわち、本発明者らは、内部に炭酸ガスの気泡が多数入っていて清涼感のある外観を有し、しかも喫食時に口中で気泡が弾けて強い発泡感が感じられ、更に保形性に優れたゼリーを、特殊な容器や煩雑な方法を用いずに、喫食者自身が家庭内で簡単に手作りできる発泡性ゼリー用粉末について検討を行った。
その結果、特定の増粘多糖類と、発泡成分とを特定比率で組み合わせることによって、所望の発泡性ゼリー用粉末とする事ができることを見いだした。
更に、そのゼリー用粉末を使用した発泡性ゼリーの製法として、上記特定の増粘多糖類を一旦溶液化して特定温度に保持し、適度な粘性を付与した状態で、発泡成分と接触させることにより、発泡成分が充分に溶解して発泡するとともに、それによって生じた炭酸ガスの気泡が、粘性を帯びた増粘多糖類に封じ込められ、外部へ逃散しないことを見いだした。
これにより、耐熱、耐圧性の密封容器を用いず、開放系であっても、簡単に発泡性ゼリーをつくることができることを見いだし、本発明に到達した。
【0007】
次に本発明を詳しく説明する。
本発明の発泡性ゼリー用粉末には、発泡成分と増粘多糖類とが含まれる。
【0008】
まず、発泡成分は、酸味料粉末と炭酸水素ナトリウム粉末とからなる。
粉末酸味料としては、例えばクエン酸、酒石酸、リンゴ酸、フマール酸等の食用有機酸が挙げられ、これらは単独でも、2種以上組み合わせてもよい。特に酒石酸は発泡成分の経日安定性を良くする点で好適である。また、更に経日安定性を良くする場合には、これらの無水物を用いたり、予め造粒すればよい。
【0009】
発泡成分の配合量は、発泡性ゼリー(以下「ゼリー」と記す)全体重量中、好ましくは0.6〜3.0重量%(以下「%」と記す)、更に好ましくは0.8〜1.5%とすることが望まれる。
0.6%未満だと、発泡力が弱すぎて、泡状組織(気泡が集合してできた組織)の割合がゼリー全体重量の20%未満となるため、ゼリーの外観が損なわれ、発泡感も不足する傾向にある。
逆に3.0%を超えると発泡力が強すぎて、ゼリーの保形性が弱まる傾向にある。
また、粉末酸味料と炭酸水素ナトリウム粉末との比率は、重量比で、粉末酸味料1に対し、炭酸水素ナトリウム粉末0.65〜1.2に設定することが良好な発泡をもたらす点で好適である。
【0010】
上記発泡成分の粒度は、粉末の場合、100メッシュパスより細かい粒子にすることが望ましい。造粒の場合、好ましくは10メッシュパスより細かく、更に好ましくは40メッシュパスより細かい粒子に設定することが望ましい。
粒度が上記よりも粗くなると、発泡成分と増粘多糖類溶液とを接触させたときに均一な発泡状態が得られなかったり、発泡速度が遅延する傾向にある。
【0011】
上記発泡成分には、副原料として、例えば糖類、金属塩類、香料、着色料、調味料、果汁、野菜汁、エキス、乳製品、各種栄養素(蛋白質、食物繊維、ビタミン、ミネラル等)、澱粉もしくはその加工品、油脂、起泡剤(ゼラチン、卵白、植物性蛋白等)、安定剤、乳化剤等の粉末、もしくは液状物を必要に応じ添加してもよい。
特に卵白粉末の使用は、気泡の保持の点で好適である。また、色素として、pH変化により色調の変化する天然色素を添加しておくと、増粘多糖類溶液を発泡成分と接触させたときに色が変化してゆく様子を楽しむことができるので好適である。
【0012】
一方、増粘多糖類は、カラギナンとローカストビーンガムとを含有する。
これら2成分は、併用しなければならない。いずれか一つが欠けると、目的とするゼリーを得ることができない。
2成分の使用割合は、特に限定するものではないが、重量比でカラギナン1に対しローカストビーンガム0.1〜0.5とすると、後述する発泡成分の均一な混合やゼリーの気泡保持力の点で好適ある。
また、増粘多糖類は、ゼリーの全体重量中、0.8〜1.5%とすることが発泡性ゼリーの食感、保形性、気泡の保持力の点で好適である。
0.8%未満であると、ゼリーの気泡保持力が弱まり、保形性も悪くなる傾向にある。逆に、1.5%を超えると増粘多糖類のゲル化力が強くなりすぎ、発泡成分を均一に混合しにくい傾向にある。
【0013】
なおカラギナンは、特にアルコール沈殿タイプのカッパカラギナンを主体とすると、ゼリーの気泡保持力と食感の点で好適である。
【0014】
また、その他の増粘多糖類として、ジェランガムを併用すると、ゼリーの成形性の点で好適である。ジェランガムの使用量は、ゼリー全体重量中、0.2〜0.3%程度でよい。
【0015】
また、上記増粘多糖類には、副原料として、例えば糖類、金属塩類、香料、着色料、調味料、果汁、野菜汁、エキス、乳製品、各種栄養素(蛋白質、食物繊維、ビタミン、ミネラル等)、澱粉もしくはその加工品、油脂、起泡剤(ゼラチン、卵白、植物性蛋白等)、安定剤、乳化剤等の粉末を必要に応じて添加してもよい。これらの副原料が液体である場合には、予め造粒もしくは粉末化すればよい。
【0016】
また、副原料としてカリウム塩を用いると、ゼリーの食感改良の点で好適である。カリウム塩を用いる量は、ゼリー全体重量中、0.02〜0.1%程度でよい。
【0017】
なお、本発明においては、上記発泡成分と増粘多糖類との混合比が重要である。両者の比は重量比で発泡成分:増粘多糖類=1:0.6〜2とする。好ましくは、発泡成分:増粘多糖類=1:0.8〜1.5がよい。
すなわち、発泡成分1に対して増粘多糖類の比が0.6を下回ると、発泡性が強くなりすぎ、喫食時に刺激が強すぎてゼリー感が殆ど感じられなくなってしまう。また経日とともに、泡状組織が減少したり、ゼリーが崩れやすくなったり、ゼリー特有の弾力的な食感が損なわれたりする。
逆に、発泡成分1に対して増粘多糖類の比が2を超えると、発泡力が弱まり、泡状組織がゼリーの極一部にしか形成されなかったり、喫食時に発泡感が殆ど感じられなかったりする。
【0018】
なお、本発明の発泡性ゼリー用粉末を製品とする場合には、発泡成分と増粘多糖類を別々の包装体に収容することが好ましい。
あるいは、発泡成分のうち、粉末酸味料か炭酸水素ナトリウム粉末のいずれか一方を増粘多糖類と同じ包装体に収容してもよい。
本発明の発泡性ゼリー用粉末は、包装体に収容されて販売され、喫食者自身が家庭で、開放系で発泡性ゼリーを手作りする場合に好適に用いられる。
【0019】
次に、上記発泡性ゼリー用粉末を用いて発泡性ゼリーは例えば次のようにして製造される。
図1に本発明発泡性ゼリーの製法の一例を示し、以下これに沿って説明する。
【0020】
まず、増粘多糖類を溶液化する。
その方法としては、例えば図1(A)に示すように、容器(1)を準備し、この中に水性媒体(2)と増粘多糖類(3)とを入れ、スプーン等の治具(4)を用いる等して適宜攪拌することにより、増粘多糖類(3)を水性媒体(2)に溶解させ、増粘多糖類溶液(5)を得る。
【0021】
なお、前記水性媒体(2)としては、水の他にジュース等を用いてもよく、あるいは、水溶性の粉末原料を溶解した水溶液を用いてもよい。
また、好ましくは上記水性媒体(2)を70〜90℃に調整して使用すると、増粘多糖類(3)を充分に溶解させることができる。
水性媒体(2)の使用量は、増粘多糖類の配合量に合わせて適宜設定すればよい。
【0022】
また、容器(1)としては、例えば製菓用のモールドを使用してもよいし、家庭にあるボール、茶碗、カップ、鍋等で代用してもよい。
あるいは、軟質材の容器を用いてもよく、例えば、ポリプロピレンやポリスチロール等のプラスチック製のカップや、紙コップ等、70〜90℃程度の温水に耐えうる容器であればよい。
【0023】
次に、増粘多糖類溶液を35〜55℃に調整する。好ましくは40〜50℃に調整するとよい。上記温度に調整することにより、増粘多糖類溶液に適度な粘性を付与する。
その方法としては、例えば図1(B)に示すように、増粘多糖類溶液(5)の調製に使用した容器(1)よりも更に大きな容器(6)を準備し、これに水(7)を入れ、前述の増粘多糖類溶液(5)が入った容器(1)の底部を浸漬して、増粘多糖類溶液(5)を冷却し、上記温度に調節すればよい。このとき治具(4)等を使って増粘多糖類溶液(5)を攪拌すると、均一に温度調整することができるので好適である。
なお、増粘多糖類溶液(5)の温度を35℃未満まで下げると、増粘多糖類溶液(5)が強固にゲル化してしまい、次工程で発泡成分と接触したときに、発泡成分を均一に溶解することができず、気泡が充分に生成しない。
しかも、強固にゲル化した増粘多糖類溶液(5)は、発泡成分と接触させる際の攪拌によって、ゲル状組織が断片となって壊れる。壊れた断片は、再度一体化してゼリーとなりにくいため、均一組織のゼリーをつくることができない。
逆に、増粘多糖類溶液(5)の温度が55℃を超えると、発泡成分と接触したときに、発泡成分が急激に反応し、気泡が激しく発生しすぎるため、ゼリー中に気泡がとどまらず、喫食時に充分な発泡感が感じられない。
【0024】
次に、増粘多糖類溶液と発泡成分とを接触させる。
その方法としては、例えば図1(C)に示すように、増粘多糖類溶液(5)の上から発泡成分(8)を添加する。
このように、予め温度を一定範囲に調整した増粘多糖類溶液(5)中に、発泡成分(8)を添加することにより、適度な粘性を帯びた増粘多糖類溶液の中で、発泡成分が徐々に発泡を開始するので、増粘多糖類溶液が防御壁となって、発泡成分の気泡を外へ逃散させることなくとどめる。
その結果、炭酸ガスの気泡が充分に発生し、しかも増粘多糖類溶液内に確実に内包される。
【0025】
なお、発泡成分(8)を添加する際に、同時にスプーン等の治具(4)を用いて増粘多糖類溶液(5)を攪拌しながら添加すると、発泡成分(8)を増粘多糖類溶液(5)中に均一溶解させ充分に発泡させることができるので好適である。
【0026】
また、増粘多糖類溶液(5)と発泡成分(8)を接触させる際に使用する容器としては、前述の増粘多糖類溶液(5)の製造に使用した容器(1)をそのままひき続き使用すればよい。
あるいは、容器(1)から適宜ゼリー型等に分注してゼリーを固化させてもよい。
また容器は軟質材を用いてもよく、例えば、ポリプロピレンやポリスチロール等のプラスチック製のカップ、塩化ビニル製の袋や、紙コップ等、35〜55℃程度の温度に耐えうる素材によりつくられた容器であればよい。
本発明の製法によれば、上記のような開放系の容器の中で発泡性ゼリーをつくることができる。すなわち、喫食者が発泡成分による起泡と増粘多糖類溶液がゲル化してゆく様子を、目で見て楽しみながら簡単にゼリーをつくることができるのである。
【0027】
なお、発泡成分と増粘多糖類溶液とを接触させる場合に、特に好適な方法としは、発泡成分を予め容器に収容しておき、その上から所定温度範囲に調整した増粘多糖類溶液を注ぐと、発泡成分により生成した気泡を、全て増粘多糖類溶液のゲル中にとどめることができ効率的である。
しかも、このとき増粘多糖類溶液と発泡成分とを静置状態で接触させれば、気泡が容器中のゼリーの上部に集合し、泡状組織とゼリー組織の2層ゼリーとすることができる。
一方、スプーン等の治具で攪拌しながら、両者を接触させると、ゼリー全体に気泡が均一に内包されたゼリーや、ムース様の柔らかいデザートとなる。
【0028】
次に、発泡成分による気泡が生成した増粘多糖類溶液のゲルを、常温に静置するか、必要に応じて冷蔵庫等で冷却する等してゼリー状に固化させる。すると、例えば図1(D)に示すように、多量の細かな気泡(9)が内包され、清涼感に富み、しかも保形性に優れた発泡性ゼリー(10)が得られる。
【0029】
【発明の効果】
以上のように、本発明の発泡性ゼリー用粉末は、特定組成の増粘多糖類と、発泡成分とを特定の比率で用いるので、ゼリー化したときに炭酸ガスの気泡がゼリー中に内包され、気泡が多数内包された清涼感のある外観を有するとともに、喫食時に強い発泡感が体感できる発泡性ゼリーを、家庭で簡単に手作りすることができる。
また、得られた発泡性ゼリーを開放系で保存しても、ゼリー強度と気泡と炭酸感とが長時間保持される。
また、ゼリーの製造に際し、所定温度範囲に調整した増粘多糖類溶液を発泡成分と接触させているので、発生した気泡がゼリー内に効率よくとどめられる。
そのため、ゼリーの調製を開放系で行っても、炭酸ガスが充満した気泡を確実にゼリー内に内包させることができる。
なお、増粘多糖類溶液を適度に攪拌しながら行う場合には、攪拌の強さや時間を変えることによって、ゼリー様の弾力的な食感のものからムース様のソフトな食感のものまで様々な外観と食感のゼリーとすることができる。
【0030】
次に、本発明を実施例に基づき具体的に説明する。
〈実施例1〜4、比較例1〜4〉
表1に示す組成の増粘多糖類ミックスと発泡成分ミックス(粒度40メッシュパス〜60メッシュオン)とを準備した。次に、これを80℃の温水100mlで溶解し、増粘多糖類溶液とした。
この増粘多糖類溶液を150ml容積のアルミ製ゼリー型に充填して水に浸漬し、40℃に調整したのち、その上に発泡成分を充填してスプーンを用いて攪拌した。
得られたゼリーを5℃にて冷却固化して発泡性ゼリーを調製した。
各発泡性ゼリーについて、▲1▼発泡性(泡状組織の体積が発泡性ゼリー全体の体積に占める割合)、▲2▼喫食時の発泡感、▲3▼泡状組織の減少率(経日性)、▲4▼保形性について評価を行った。その結果を表1に併せて示す。

表1の結果より、実施例はいずれも▲1▼発泡性▲2▼喫食時の発泡感、▲3▼経日性、▲4▼保形性が良好であった。このうち、実施例2は、増粘性多糖類としてジェランガムを併用しているので、ゼリーの保形性が特に良好であった。
これに対し、比較例1や2は、増粘多糖類中にカラギナン又はローカストビーンガムのいずれか一方が含まれていなかったために、ゼリーの保形性が悪かったり、発泡成分が殆ど発泡しなかっりした。
また、比較例3は、発泡成分に対する増粘性多糖類の重量比が所定範囲を下回ったため、喫食時に炭酸感が強すぎてゼリー感が感じられなかったり、経日に伴って泡状組織が減少したり、ゼリーの保形性が悪かったりした。比較例4は、発泡成分に対する増粘性多糖類の重量比が所定範囲を上回ったため、発泡性が殆ど感じられなかった。

【表2】

【0035】
表2の結果より、実施例5は、保形性はあるものの、発泡成分と接触させる際の増粘多糖類溶液の温度が高いため、発泡成分が急激に反応し、気泡が全量ゼリー中にとどまらなかったため、喫食時に充分な発泡感が感じられなかった。
実施例6は、炭酸感はあるものの、発泡成分と接触させる際の増粘多糖類溶液の温度が低いため発泡成分と接触したときに、発泡成分を均一に溶解することができず、気泡が充分に生成しなかった。また、発泡成分と接触させる際の攪拌によって、ゲル状組織が壊れたため、ゼリーの保形性が悪かった。
【0036】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention has a refreshing appearance in which a large number of bubbles generated by foaming of foaming components are encapsulated, and a foaming jelly that feels a strong foaming feeling at the time of eating, while a person watching the foaming easy homemade can be directed to the end of foaming jelly for powder.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In general, as a jelly having foaming properties, there is a refreshing gel food described in JP-A-1-222744, for example.
This gel-like food is made by adding carbon dioxide or carbonated water to gellan gum and carrageenan at a low temperature and sealing it in a container, and then heating the container together to generate carbon dioxide in the container to generate bubbles. It is produced, cooled and gelled to obtain a gelled food containing bubbles.
However, this gelled food is heated after mixing the aqueous colloidal solution and carbon dioxide gas during production. This heating causes the carbon dioxide gas to foam violently and escape from the aqueous colloidal solution. In order to prevent this, in this method, a pressure-resistant, pressure-resistant sealed container is used, in which the aqueous colloid solution and carbon dioxide gas are mixed.
As described above, the gel-like food obtained by this method is industrially produced in a special sealed container and cannot be easily handmade by a eater at home.
Further, when gel food is stored for a long period of time, there is a problem that the foaming feeling is weak or completely lost when eating.
[0003]
As another method, there is a method for producing a cellular food described in JP-A-62-296851.
In this method, a gelling material such as xanthan gum, a gelling material such as locust bean gum, a carbon dioxide generating material such as sodium carbonate, an organic acid and water are mixed and left at room temperature to generate carbon dioxide. The volume is increased and an instant shake drink with fluidity is obtained.
However, in this method, since the gelled material is not heated during the manufacturing process, the gel strength is not imparted and a jelly dessert that maintains a certain shape cannot be obtained.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances. The object of the present invention is that a large number of bubbles generated by foaming of the foaming component are encapsulated in the jelly, and the carbon dioxide in the bubbles is kept for a long time. is held, to provide a strong foaming sense of the foaming jelly that is felt, foaming jelly for powder that at home can easily be handmade in the mouth at the time of eating.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The above purpose is for foaming jelly in which one of the foaming component and the thickening polysaccharide and the other foaming component are packaged separately, or the foaming component and the thickening polysaccharide are separately packaged . It is a powder, the thickening polysaccharide contains carrageenan and locust bean gum, and the weight ratio of the foaming component and the thickening polysaccharide is set to 1: 0.6-2. A foaming jelly powder characterized by the above, and a thickening polysaccharide solution containing carrageenan and locust bean gum is adjusted to 35 to 55 ° C., and then brought into contact with the foaming component, and produced by foaming of the foaming component This is achieved by the above foaming jelly powder for preparing foaming jelly by enclosing air bubbles in the thickening polysaccharide solution.
[0006]
In other words, the present inventors have a refreshing appearance with a large number of carbon dioxide gas bubbles inside, and are able to feel a strong foaming feeling by blowing bubbles in the mouth when eating, and also have excellent shape retention. We investigated a foaming jelly powder that can be easily handmade by the eater himself in the home without using special containers or complicated methods.
As a result, it was found that a desired powder for foamable jelly can be obtained by combining a specific thickening polysaccharide and a foaming component in a specific ratio.
Furthermore, as a method for producing foamable jelly using the powder for jelly, the above-mentioned specific thickening polysaccharide is once made into a solution and maintained at a specific temperature, and brought into contact with the foaming component in a state of imparting an appropriate viscosity. It was found that the foaming component was sufficiently dissolved and foamed, and the carbon dioxide gas bubbles generated thereby were trapped in the thickening polysaccharide with viscosity and did not escape to the outside.
As a result, it was found that a foamable jelly can be easily produced even in an open system without using a heat-resistant and pressure-resistant sealed container, and the present invention has been achieved.
[0007]
Next, the present invention will be described in detail.
The foamable jelly powder of the present invention contains a foaming component and a thickening polysaccharide.
[0008]
First, a foaming component consists of a sour agent powder and sodium hydrogencarbonate powder.
Examples of the powder acidulant include edible organic acids such as citric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, and fumaric acid. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more. In particular, tartaric acid is preferable in terms of improving the day-to-day stability of the foaming component. Further, in order to further improve the aging stability, these anhydrides may be used or granulated in advance.
[0009]
The blending amount of the foaming component is preferably 0.6 to 3.0% by weight (hereinafter referred to as “%”), more preferably 0.8 to 1 in the total weight of the foamable jelly (hereinafter referred to as “jelly”). .5% is desired.
If it is less than 0.6%, the foaming power is too weak, and the ratio of the foam structure (structure formed by bubbles) is less than 20% of the total weight of the jelly. There is also a tendency to lack feeling.
Conversely, if it exceeds 3.0%, the foaming power is too strong, and the shape retention of the jelly tends to be weakened.
Further, the ratio of the powdered acidulant to the sodium hydrogencarbonate powder is preferably set to a sodium hydrogencarbonate powder of 0.65 to 1.2 with respect to the powdered acidulant 1 in terms of weight ratio in order to achieve good foaming. It is.
[0010]
In the case of powder, the foaming component preferably has a particle size smaller than 100 mesh pass. In the case of granulation, it is preferable to set the particles to be finer than 10 mesh pass, more preferably finer than 40 mesh pass.
When the particle size becomes coarser than the above, a uniform foamed state cannot be obtained or the foaming rate tends to be delayed when the foaming component and the thickening polysaccharide solution are brought into contact with each other.
[0011]
In the above foaming component, for example, sugars, metal salts, fragrances, coloring agents, seasonings, fruit juices, vegetable juices, extracts, dairy products, various nutrients (proteins, dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals, etc.), starch or The processed products, fats and oils, foaming agents (gelatin, egg white, vegetable protein, etc.), stabilizers, powders such as emulsifiers, or liquids may be added as necessary.
The use of egg white powder is particularly preferable in terms of air bubble retention. In addition, it is preferable to add a natural pigment whose color tone changes due to a change in pH as the pigment, because it can enjoy the color changing when the thickening polysaccharide solution is brought into contact with the foaming component. is there.
[0012]
On the other hand, the thickening polysaccharide contains carrageenan and locust bean gum.
These two components must be used in combination. If any one is missing, the target jelly cannot be obtained.
The use ratio of the two components is not particularly limited. However, when the locust bean gum is 0.1 to 0.5 with respect to carrageenan 1 by weight, uniform mixing of the foaming components described below and the cell holding power of the jelly This is preferable in terms.
In addition, the thickening polysaccharide is preferably 0.8 to 1.5% in the total weight of the jelly in terms of the texture, shape retention, and bubble retention of the foamable jelly.
If it is less than 0.8%, the jelly's bubble retention tends to be weak and the shape retention tends to be poor. On the other hand, if it exceeds 1.5%, the gelling power of the thickening polysaccharide becomes too strong, and it tends to be difficult to uniformly mix the foaming component.
[0013]
The carrageenan is preferably alcohol-precipitated kappa carrageenan as the main component in terms of jelly bubble retention and texture.
[0014]
As other thickening polysaccharides, gellan gum is preferably used in terms of jelly moldability. The amount of gellan gum used may be about 0.2 to 0.3% in the total weight of the jelly.
[0015]
In addition, the thickening polysaccharides include, for example, sugars, metal salts, fragrances, coloring agents, seasonings, fruit juices, vegetable juices, extracts, dairy products, various nutrients (proteins, dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals, etc.) ), Starch or processed products thereof, fats and oils, foaming agents (gelatin, egg white, vegetable protein, etc.), stabilizers, emulsifiers and the like may be added as necessary. When these auxiliary materials are liquid, they may be granulated or powdered in advance.
[0016]
Moreover, when potassium salt is used as an auxiliary material, it is preferable in terms of improving the texture of the jelly. The amount of potassium salt used may be about 0.02 to 0.1% in the total weight of the jelly.
[0017]
In the present invention, the mixing ratio of the foaming component and the thickening polysaccharide is important. The ratio of both is foaming component: thickening polysaccharide = 1: 0.6-2 by weight ratio. Preferably, foaming component: thickening polysaccharide = 1: 0.8 to 1.5.
That is, when the ratio of the thickening polysaccharide to the foaming component 1 is less than 0.6, the foaming property becomes too strong, and the irritation is too strong at the time of eating, so that the feeling of jelly is hardly felt. In addition, with the passage of time, the foamy structure decreases, the jelly tends to collapse, and the elastic texture unique to the jelly is impaired.
On the contrary, if the ratio of the thickening polysaccharide to the foaming component 1 exceeds 2, the foaming power is weakened, the foamy structure is formed only in a very small part of the jelly, and a feeling of foaming is almost felt during eating. There is not.
[0018]
In addition, when making the powder for foamable jelly of this invention into a product, it is preferable to accommodate a foaming component and a thickening polysaccharide in a separate package.
Or you may accommodate either a powdered acidulant or sodium hydrogencarbonate powder in the same package as a thickening polysaccharide among foaming components.
The foamable jelly powder of the present invention is sold while being housed in a package, and is suitably used when the eater himself makes homemade foamable jelly at home.
[0019]
Next, the foamable jelly is produced, for example, as follows using the powder for foamable jelly.
FIG. 1 shows an example of a method for producing the foamable jelly of the present invention, which will be described below.
[0020]
First, a thickening polysaccharide is made into a solution.
As the method, for example, as shown in FIG. 1A, a container (1) is prepared, an aqueous medium (2) and a thickening polysaccharide (3) are put therein, and a jig such as a spoon ( The thickening polysaccharide (3) is dissolved in the aqueous medium (2) by stirring as appropriate using 4) to obtain the thickening polysaccharide solution (5).
[0021]
In addition, as said aqueous medium (2), juice etc. may be used other than water, or the aqueous solution which melt | dissolved the water-soluble powder raw material may be used.
Further, preferably, when the aqueous medium (2) is adjusted to 70 to 90 ° C. and used, the thickening polysaccharide (3) can be sufficiently dissolved.
What is necessary is just to set the usage-amount of an aqueous medium (2) suitably according to the compounding quantity of a thickening polysaccharide.
[0022]
In addition, as the container (1), for example, a mold for confectionery may be used, or a bowl, teacup, cup, pan, or the like at home may be used instead.
Or you may use the container of a soft material, for example, what is necessary is just a container which can endure hot water of about 70-90 degreeC, such as plastic cups, such as a polypropylene and a polystyrene, and a paper cup.
[0023]
Next, the thickening polysaccharide solution is adjusted to 35 to 55 ° C. The temperature is preferably adjusted to 40 to 50 ° C. By adjusting to the said temperature, moderate viscosity is provided to a thickening polysaccharide solution.
As the method, for example, as shown in FIG. 1 (B), a container (6) larger than the container (1) used for the preparation of the thickening polysaccharide solution (5) is prepared, and water (7 ), The bottom of the container (1) containing the thickening polysaccharide solution (5) is immersed, the thickening polysaccharide solution (5) is cooled, and the temperature is adjusted to the above temperature. At this time, it is preferable to stir the thickened polysaccharide solution (5) using a jig (4) or the like because the temperature can be uniformly adjusted.
When the temperature of the thickening polysaccharide solution (5) is lowered to less than 35 ° C., the thickening polysaccharide solution (5) gels strongly, and when the foaming component comes into contact with the foaming component in the next step, It cannot be dissolved uniformly and bubbles are not generated sufficiently.
In addition, the thick polysaccharide solution (5) that has been strongly gelled breaks into a gel-like structure as a fragment by stirring when contacting the foamed component. A broken piece cannot be re-integrated into a jelly, so a uniform tissue jelly cannot be made.
On the contrary, when the temperature of the thickening polysaccharide solution (5) exceeds 55 ° C., when the foaming component comes into contact with the foaming component, the foaming component reacts abruptly and excessively generates bubbles, so that the bubbles stay in the jelly. No sufficient foaming feeling is felt during eating.
[0024]
Next, a thickening polysaccharide solution and a foaming component are made to contact.
As the method, for example, as shown in FIG. 1C, the foaming component (8) is added from above the thickening polysaccharide solution (5).
Thus, by adding the foaming component (8) to the thickening polysaccharide solution (5) whose temperature has been adjusted to a certain range in advance, foaming is achieved in the thickening polysaccharide solution having an appropriate viscosity. Since the components gradually start to foam, the thickening polysaccharide solution serves as a defensive wall and keeps the bubbles of the foamed components from escaping outside.
As a result, carbon dioxide gas bubbles are sufficiently generated, and the bubbles are reliably included in the thickening polysaccharide solution.
[0025]
In addition, when adding the foaming component (8) while simultaneously stirring the thickening polysaccharide solution (5) using a jig (4) such as a spoon, the foaming component (8) is added to the thickening polysaccharide. This is suitable because it can be uniformly dissolved in the solution (5) and sufficiently foamed.
[0026]
Moreover, as a container used when making a thickening polysaccharide solution (5) and a foaming component (8) contact, the container (1) used for manufacture of the above-mentioned thickening polysaccharide solution (5) is continued as it is. Use it.
Alternatively, the jelly may be solidified by appropriately dispensing from the container (1) into a jelly mold or the like.
The container may be made of a soft material such as a plastic cup such as polypropylene or polystyrene, a bag made of vinyl chloride, a paper cup or the like made of a material that can withstand a temperature of about 35 to 55 ° C. Any container can be used.
According to the production method of the present invention, a foamable jelly can be produced in an open container as described above. In other words, a jelly can be easily made while a user visually enjoys the appearance of foaming by a foaming component and the thickening polysaccharide solution gelling.
[0027]
In the case where the foaming component and the thickening polysaccharide solution are brought into contact with each other, as a particularly suitable method, the foaming component is previously stored in a container, and a thickening polysaccharide solution adjusted to a predetermined temperature range from above is stored. When poured, all the bubbles generated by the foaming component can be kept in the gel of the thickening polysaccharide solution, which is efficient.
In addition, if the thickening polysaccharide solution and the foaming component are allowed to come into contact with each other at this time, bubbles can gather at the upper part of the jelly in the container to form a two-layer jelly of a foamy structure and a jelly structure. .
On the other hand, when they are brought into contact with each other while stirring with a jig such as a spoon, a jelly or a mousse-like soft dessert in which bubbles are uniformly contained in the entire jelly is obtained.
[0028]
Next, the gel of the thickened polysaccharide solution in which bubbles due to the foaming component are generated is allowed to stand at ordinary temperature, or is cooled in a refrigerator or the like as necessary, and solidified into a jelly shape. Then, for example, as shown in FIG. 1 (D), a large amount of fine bubbles (9) are encapsulated, and a foamable jelly (10) having a good refreshing feeling and excellent shape retention is obtained.
[0029]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, the foamable jelly powder of the present invention uses the polysaccharide thickener having a specific composition and the foaming component in a specific ratio, so that when the jelly is formed, carbon dioxide bubbles are included in the jelly. A foamable jelly that has a refreshing appearance in which a large number of bubbles are contained and a strong foaming feeling when eating can be easily handmade at home.
Moreover, even if the obtained foamable jelly is preserve | saved by an open system, jelly strength, a bubble, and a carbonic feeling are maintained for a long time.
Further, when the jelly is produced, the thickened polysaccharide solution adjusted to a predetermined temperature range is brought into contact with the foaming component, so that the generated bubbles are efficiently retained in the jelly.
Therefore, even if the jelly is prepared in an open system, the bubbles filled with carbon dioxide can be surely included in the jelly.
In addition, when the thickening polysaccharide solution is carried out with moderate stirring, it can vary from a jelly-like elastic texture to a mousse-like soft texture by changing the strength and time of stirring. The appearance and texture of the jelly can be improved.
[0030]
Next, the present invention will be specifically described based on examples.
<Examples 1-4, Comparative Examples 1-4>
A thickening polysaccharide mix and a foaming component mix (particle size: 40 mesh pass to 60 mesh on) having the composition shown in Table 1 were prepared. Next, this was melt | dissolved with 100 ml of warm water of 80 degreeC, and it was set as the thickening polysaccharide solution.
This thickening polysaccharide solution was filled into an aluminum jelly mold having a volume of 150 ml, immersed in water, adjusted to 40 ° C., filled with a foaming component, and stirred using a spoon.
The obtained jelly was cooled and solidified at 5 ° C. to prepare an effervescent jelly.
For each effervescent jelly, (1) effervescence (the ratio of the volume of the foam structure to the total volume of the effervescent jelly), (2) foaming feeling during eating, (3) the rate of decrease in the foam structure (daily) ), (4) The shape retention was evaluated. The results are also shown in Table 1.
[0031]
[Table 1]
Figure 0003793997
[0032]
From the results shown in Table 1, in all examples, (1) foamability, (2) foaming feeling during eating, (3) aging characteristics, and (4) shape retention were good. Among these, in Example 2, gellan gum was used in combination as a thickening polysaccharide, so that the shape retention of jelly was particularly good.
On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 1 and 2, since either the carrageenan or locust bean gum was not included in the thickening polysaccharide, the shape retention of the jelly was poor or the foaming component hardly foamed. I did.
In Comparative Example 3, the weight ratio of the thickening polysaccharide to the foaming component was lower than the predetermined range, so that the carbonated feeling was too strong at the time of eating and the jelly feeling was not felt, or the foam structure decreased with the passage of time. Or the shape of the jelly was poor. In Comparative Example 4, since the weight ratio of the thickening polysaccharide to the foaming component exceeded the predetermined range, the foamability was hardly felt.
[0033]
<Examples 5-6>
A foaming jelly was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the temperature of the thickening polysaccharide solution immediately before filling the foaming component was changed to the temperature shown in Table 2.
Each foamable jelly was evaluated for 4 items in the same manner as in Example 1. The results are also shown in Table 2.
[0034]
[Table 2]
Figure 0003793997
[0035]
From the results of Table 2, although Example 5 has shape retention, since the temperature of the thickening polysaccharide solution when contacting with the foaming component is high, the foaming component reacts abruptly, and all the bubbles are in the jelly. Since it did not stay, sufficient foaming feeling was not felt at the time of eating.
In Example 6, although there is a carbonic sensation, the temperature of the thickening polysaccharide solution at the time of contacting with the foaming component is low, so when contacting with the foaming component, the foaming component cannot be dissolved uniformly and bubbles are generated. Not fully formed. Moreover, since the gel-like structure was broken by stirring when contacting with the foaming component, the shape retention of the jelly was poor.
[0036]
<Example 7>
A foamable jelly was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the container was first filled with the foaming component, and then the thickened polysaccharide solution adjusted to 40 ° C. was filled.
Each foamable jelly was evaluated for 4 items in the same manner as in Example 1. The results are shown in Table 3.
[0037]
[Table 3]
Figure 0003793997
[0038]
From the results in Table 3, since Example 7 was filled with the foaming component in the container and then the thickening polysaccharide solution was added and stirred, the entire amount of the foaming component was sufficiently foamed in the thickening polysaccharide solution. And the foaming jelly which the whole jelly became a uniform foam-like structure and was able to feel a suitable foaming feeling was obtained.
