【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、粳米を順次焙炒処理、加水、蒸きょうした後、製麹してなる粳米麹、その製造方法、及び該粳米麹を使用してなる飲食品に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
米麹は、清酒、みりん、味噌等の酒類や醸造調味料の製造に必須の原料であり、他の食品原料と混合後、醸造及び/又は熟成させると、非常に複雑な好ましい風味を醸し出す。また、米麹自体の自己消化物も化学調味料や香料等だけでは作り出すことのできない風味を持つことから、米麹は高品質な本物感を与える食品素材として醸造分野以外でも広く使用されている。
一般に、米麹の製造方法としては、粳玄米を必要に応じて適宜精米、洗米、浸漬後、水切りをして蒸きょう、放冷、種付けを行い製麹する方法が知られている〔「調味料・香辛料の事典」、1991年7月15日発行、発行者(株)朝倉出版、第309頁〕。更に、粳玄米を精米、洗米、浸漬後、蒸きょうの代わりに焙炒処理を行い製麹させる方法(特許第2645339号)も知られている。しかしながら、従来の方法では麹米の可溶化率が低く、菌糸の破精込みや自己消化時の溶解性、風味等の点でいまだ不十分であり、充分満足できる品質の粳米麹は提供されていないのが現状である。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
品質的、経済的にも優れた粳米麹の要望は強いにも関わらず、いまだ十分満足できる方策は見出されていない。本発明はこのような現状にかんがみてなされたものであり、高品質で、自己消化時の可溶化率が高い粳米麹と、該粳米麹を用いて製造された風味豊かな飲食品を提供することを目的とする。
【0004】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明を概説すると、本発明の第1の発明は、粳米を順次焙炒処理、加水、蒸きょうして得られる水分が36%w/w以上46%w/w未満である蒸米を、常法により製麹してなる粳米麹に関し、第2の発明は、第1の発明の粳米麹の製造方法に関し、第3の発明は、第1の発明の粳米麹を使用して製造してなる風味豊かなみりん又は清酒に関する。
【0005】
本発明者らは、粳米麹を製造する方法及び得られた粳米麹の利用方法について鋭意検討を行った。その結果、粳米を焙炒処理した後、加水、蒸きょうして、特定の水分含有率をもつ蒸米を得、それを、常法に従って製麹して得られる粳米麹が高品質で、自己消化時の可溶化率が高いものであり、この粳米麹を使用することによって風味豊かなみりん又は清酒が得られることを見出し本発明の完成に至った。
【0006】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明について具体的に説明する。
まず、本発明における粳米とは、いわゆる粳種に属する米をいう。粳米は、玄米、精白米いずれでもよい。また、粳米の形状は、丸米又は破砕米等のいずれの形状でも良いが、焙炒工程や製麹工程での米の歩留まりや操作性を考慮すると丸米がより好ましい。精米歩合は得られる麹の使用目的等により適宜設定すれば良く、特に限定はされないが、一般的には30〜95%w/wの範囲内で、好ましくは75〜90%w/wである。また、粳米の加水の時期は適宜設定すれば良いが、後の製麹工程における操作性を考慮にいれると、焙炒処理後に行うのが好ましい。
【0007】
(焙炒工程)
本発明において、粳米の製麹前の処理方法として、まず第1に焙炒処理を行う。本発明における焙炒処理とは、粳米を熱風で流動させたり、放熱容器を回転させながらかくはんし熱を粳米へ均一に照射しても良いが、特にこれらに限定されない。バッチ法、連続法等のいずれも採用することができる。しかしながら、安定した品質と処理量を増やす目的では連続法が好ましい。焙炒処理時の加熱はガス、電気及び石油等の熱源が使用でき、焙炒処理中一定の温度が粳米に供給できれば良いが、一般的には熱源としてガスが採用されている。また、熱源にセラミック放熱体を使用して、遠赤外線照射しても良い。
焙炒処理条件としては、温度が100〜400℃の範囲内で、時間は数秒〜十数分が適当であるが、好ましくは150℃〜300℃での処理がより好ましい。例えば、比較的低温で時間をかけて焙炒処理する(例えば240℃、70秒)方が、焙炒処理粳米は細かく砕け難い。但し、低温でも長時間焙炒処理し続けると、焦げ臭等が発生するので、例えば焙炒処理温度が200℃の場合、焙炒処理時間は数秒〜5分程度が好ましいがこの限りではなく、粳米の種類等により適宜条件を設定できる。また、焙炒処理後の米を高温のまま放置すると、余熱の影響で目的とする米とは異なった品質の原料米となるため、必要に応じて空冷等の冷却工程をとることが望ましい。この焙炒処理で粳米が熱変性を受けて、粳米の組織が多孔質なものとなって製麹時の麹菌々糸の破精込みが良くなることとなる。すなわち、焙炒工程は本発明の製麹方法の根幹をなす工程である。
【0008】
(加水工程)
次に、加水工程は常法通り行えばよい。加水方法としては、例えば浸漬タンクに必要な水分になるまで浸漬して引上げる方法や、原料米の入ったドラム型回転式タンクに必要量の水を投入し、タンクを回転させながら加水する方法、散水して加水する方法、又は加水後、再乾燥する方法等があるが、この限りでない。また、加水処理時の水温については、特に限定はないが焙炒処理粳米に短時間で加水したい時は高温(40〜50℃)で、比較的時間をかけて加水したいときは低温(10〜20℃)で吸水させるとよい。加水する時間は特に限定はなく、原料米が均一に水分を吸収できればよい。
【0009】
ここで、焙炒処理により粳米の構造が多孔質になることによって焙炒処理粳米の吸水性が大幅に向上することを以下の実験例1で詳しく述べる。
(実験例1)市販の粳玄米(日本晴)を精米歩合90%に精米後、熱風発生機[(株)竹網製作所、TSK―60型]を使用して240℃、70秒間焙炒処理した後、0〜270分間吸水させた時の米の重量を測定し、水分を算出した。加水による粳米水分の変化を図1に示す。図1の横軸は浸漬時間(分)を、縦軸は加水後の焙炒処理米の水分(%w/w)を、四角でつながれた線は焙炒処理した粳米を使用した場合を、三角でつながれた線は未焙炒処理の粳米を使用した場合を表わしている。
【0010】
図1の結果から、水分14%w/w、精米歩合90%の粳米を水に浸漬した場合、水分35%w/wが上限であった。これに対して同じ粳米を240℃で120秒間焙炒処理すると、水分63%w/wまで吸水させることが可能となった。
【0011】
出来上がった麹の溶解性等を考慮すると、種付け前の引込み時の粳米の水分は麹の物性や操作性に影響を及ぼさない範囲で高めた方が好都合である。その点、焙炒処理をした粳米は、非焙炒処理の粳米に比べて水分の設定範囲を広げることが可能となる。
【0012】
(蒸きょう工程)
本発明では、焙炒処理粳米を加水後蒸きょうする。この蒸きょう工程であるが、焙炒処理後の粳米中のでんぷんのα化率を上げ、α化を促進することによって、粳米麹の利用率を上げることが可能となる。蒸きょうは常法に従い、こしきや加圧連続蒸きょう装置を使用し、常圧下又は加圧下で飽和及び/又は不飽和蒸気で行えばよく、特に限定はない。例えば、100℃常圧で60分間蒸きょうすればよい。
【0013】
(製麹工程)
次に、製麹工程であるが、常法に従って、蒸し米に種もやしを接種後、30〜40℃で相対湿度90%以上として、46時間程度培養することが一般的であるが、特に限定されるものではない。使用する種もやしについては、食品に使用可能なものであれば特に限定されないが、一般的にはアスペルギルス属のかび(主に黄麹菌、黒麹菌及び白麹菌)、クモノスカビ、ケカビ及び紅麹菌等が使用できる。
【0014】
焙炒処理で粳米の溶解性が大幅に向上することを以下の実験例2で詳しく述べる。
(実験例2)表1に示す粳米麹の製麹手順に従って製麹を行った。
【0015】
【表1】

Figure 0004204171
【0016】
精米歩合90%の粳米を使用し、粳米麹▲1▼、▲2▼及び粳米麹▲5▼の焙炒処理は240℃、70秒間、実験例1で使用した熱風発生機を用いて行った。粳米麹▲3▼の乾燥は、40℃で17時間行った。次に、表1に示した水分になるまでそれぞれ加水後、粳米麹▲1▼、▲2▼、▲3▼及び▲4▼については60分間、100℃で常圧蒸きょうした。これらすべてに種付け(黄麹菌を使用)を行い、常法に従って製麹し、粳米麹を得た。出麹後、約3時間枯らした後、米麹の分析に供した。第4回改正国税庁所定分析法注解(1993)に従って分析した粳米麹の分析値を表2に示す。更に、これらの粳米麹10gに対して水50mlを混合し、55℃、24時間の自己消化試験を行った結果を表3に示す。
【0017】
【表2】
Figure 0004204171
【0018】
表2から分かるように得られた粳米麹▲1▼〜▲5▼は粳米麹として有用な酵素力価を有しており、特にみりん用として十分な酵素力価であった。しかし、粳米麹▲5▼は製麹中に破砕が進行し易く、操作が困難であった。それに対して粳米麹▲1▼(本発明品)及び粳米麹▲2▼(本発明品)は製麹中に破砕が進行し難く、操作も容易であった。
【0019】
【表3】

【0020】
可溶化率は、下記の式(数1)で算出される数値を意味する〔但し、乾燥重量g:105℃、24時間後の重量である。〕。
(数1)
可溶化率(%)={1−(自己消化後の残渣の乾燥重量g/ 麹の乾燥重量g)}×100
【0021】
表2及び表3に示されるように、粳米麹▲1▼(本発明品)及び粳米麹▲5▼は引き込み時の粳米水分が同程度であるにもかかわらず、粳米麹▲1▼(本発明品)は粳米麹▲5▼より可溶化率が約31%高かった。また、粳米麹▲5▼は粳米麹▲4▼よりも引き込み時の粳米水分が約9%高いにもかかわらず、可溶化率が約23%低かった。このことから、粳米麹の可溶化率を高めるためには、単に引き込み時の粳米の水分を高めるだけでは駄目であり、焙炒処理、加水後に蒸きょうするのが望ましいことがわかる。一方、粳米麹▲2▼(本発明品)及び粳米麹▲3▼は引き込み時の粳米水分が同程度であるにもかかわらず、粳米麹▲2▼(本発明品)は粳米麹▲3▼よりも可溶化率が高かった。すなわち、蒸米の水分を高めることは粳米麹▲3▼の乾燥法でも可能であるが、同じ水分の粳米で製麹した場合、得られた粳米麹の可溶化率は焙炒処理、加水及び蒸きょうを施したものの方が優れていることがわかる。以上より、可溶化率が77%w/w以上、更に好ましくは80%w/w以上という溶けの良い粳米麹を得るには、粳米を焙炒処理、加水更に蒸きょうするのが良いと言える。
【0022】
次に、焙炒処理、加水、蒸きょう後の引き込み時の粳蒸米の水分と得られた粳米麹の性能について以下の実験例3で詳しく述べる。
(実験例3)精米歩合90%の粳米を使用し、焙炒処理は240℃、70秒間、実験例1で使用した熱風発生機を用いて行った。この焙炒処理粳米に対して▲1▼30、▲2▼35、▲3▼40、及び▲4▼45%w/wの水分になるまでそれぞれ加水した後、60分間、100℃で常圧蒸きょうして粳蒸米を得た。これらすべての粳蒸米にみりん用もやし(黄麹菌を使用)を種付けし、常法に従って製麹して粳米麹を得た。出麹後、約3時間枯らした後、米麹の分析に供した。第4回改正国税庁所定分析法注解(1993)に従って分析した粳米麹の分析結果を表4に示す。更に、これらの粳米麹10gに対して水50mlを混合し、55℃、24時間の自己消化試験を行った結果を表5に示す。
【0023】
【表4】
Figure 0004204171
【0024】
粳米麹▲1▼、▲2▼、及び▲3▼は製麹中及び製麹後の操作性に優れ、製麹適性が良かった。また、表4に示すように、酵素活性及び菌体量も飲食品用の麹として十分なものであった。一方、粳米麹▲4▼は製麹中に粘性が高くなり、製麹中及び製麹後の操作性が悪かったので分析を行わなかった。
【0025】
【表5】
Figure 0004204171
【0026】
可溶化率は、実験例2に示されている式(数1)で算出される数値を意味する。
【0027】
表4及び表5から明らかなように、本発明の粳米麹は引き込み時の粳蒸米の水分が高い程、可溶化率が高くなり、特に引き込み時の粳蒸米の水分38%w/w(粳米麹▲2▼)及び42%w/w(粳米麹▲3▼)では粳米麹の可溶化率が80%w/w以上になっている。
【0028】
以上、実験例2及び実験例3の結果から、引き込み時の粳蒸米の水分が36%w/w以上46%w/w未満、更に好ましくは、38%w/w以上46%w/w未満であれば粳米麹の可溶化率が高く、しかも製麹中及び製麹後の操作性に優れた粳米麹を得ることができる。
【0029】
本発明における蒸米の水分とは、引き込み時の粳蒸米の水分である。
【0030】
引き込み時の粳蒸米の水分調整方法は任意であり、加水時期、加水量に、特に限定はない。例えば、引き込み前の粳蒸米に加水を行い前記の水分になるように調整することができる。
【0031】
本発明の粳米麹は、醸造工程中での溶けも良いので、製品としての歩留まりが向上する。
【0032】
本発明の粳米麹を使用する飲食品の種類としては、通常、米麹を使用して製造される飲食品であれば特に限定されないが、みりん、清酒、本直し、赤酒、味噌、酢及び発酵調味料等の醸造物が挙げられ、更に、甘酒、粕漬け、漬物、菓子類、米飯類及び水畜産加工品等が特に好適な対象となる。更に、麹自身を乾燥、凍結させたものや、自己消化させた液及びこの消化液を乾燥したものも本発明の飲食品である。
【0033】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a glutinous rice bran obtained by sequentially roasting, adding and steaming glutinous rice, and then producing the same, and a food and drink using the glutinous rice bran.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Rice bran is an essential ingredient for the production of alcoholic beverages such as sake, mirin and miso, and brewing seasonings, and when mixed with other food ingredients and brewed and / or aged, it produces a very complex and desirable flavor. In addition, rice bran itself has a flavor that cannot be produced with chemical seasonings or fragrances alone, so rice bran is widely used outside of the brewing field as a high-quality food material. .
In general, as a method for producing rice bran, a method is known in which rice bran is appropriately polished, washed, soaked as necessary, drained, steamed, allowed to cool, and seeded to make a koji [ Encyclopedia of ingredients and spices ", issued July 15, 1991, publisher Asakura Publishing, page 309]. Furthermore, a method (Japanese Patent No. 2645339) is also known in which brown rice is subjected to roasting treatment instead of steaming after milling, washing, and soaking. However, the conventional method has a low solubilization rate of glutinous rice, which is still insufficient in terms of mycelium infiltration, solubility during self-digestion, flavor, and the like. There is no current situation.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Despite the strong demand for quality and economical rice bran rice, no satisfactory policy has yet been found. The present invention has been made in view of the current situation, and provides a high quality, high-quality rice bran rice cake having a high solubilization rate during self-digestion, and a flavorful food and drink produced using the rice bran rice cake. For the purpose.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
Outline of the present invention, the first invention of the present invention is a conventional method in which steamed rice having a water content of 36% w / w or more and less than 46% w / w obtained by sequentially roasting, hydrolyzing and steaming sticky rice The second invention relates to the method for producing the glutinous rice bran of the first invention, and the third invention is a flavor produced using the glutinous rice bran of the first invention. About rich mirin or sake .
[0005]
The present inventors diligently studied about a method for producing glutinous rice bran and a method for using the obtained glutinous rice bran. As a result, after the roasted rice is roasted, it is hydrolyzed and steamed to obtain steamed rice with a specific moisture content. The solubilization rate is high, and it has been found that a flavorful mirin or sake can be obtained by using this glutinous rice bran, and the present invention has been completed.
[0006]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically described.
First, glutinous rice in the present invention refers to rice belonging to so-called varieties. The brown rice may be either brown rice or polished rice. The shape of the glutinous rice may be any shape such as round rice or crushed rice, but round rice is more preferable in consideration of the yield and operability of rice in the roasting process and the koji making process. The rice milling rate may be set as appropriate depending on the purpose of use of the obtained koji, and is not particularly limited, but is generally within the range of 30 to 95% w / w, preferably 75 to 90% w / w. . Moreover, what is necessary is just to set the time of water addition of sticky rice suitably, but when the operativity in a subsequent koji making process is taken into consideration, it is preferable to carry out after a roasting process.
[0007]
(Roasting process)
In the present invention, a roasting process is first performed as a processing method before koji making koji. The roasting treatment in the present invention is not particularly limited to this, although the glutinous rice may be flowed with hot air, or the glutinous rice may be uniformly irradiated with stirring heat while rotating the heat radiation container. Either a batch method or a continuous method can be employed. However, continuous methods are preferred for the purpose of increasing stable quality and throughput. Heating during the roasting process can use a heat source such as gas, electricity and oil, and it is sufficient that a constant temperature can be supplied to the rice during the roasting process, but gas is generally used as the heat source. Moreover, you may irradiate far infrared rays using a ceramic heat radiator for a heat source.
As the roasting treatment conditions, the temperature is in the range of 100 to 400 ° C., and the time is suitably several seconds to tens of minutes, but treatment at 150 ° C. to 300 ° C. is more preferable. For example, when roasting is performed at a relatively low temperature over time (eg, 240 ° C., 70 seconds), the roasted rice is more difficult to break. However, if the roasting process is continued for a long time even at a low temperature, a burnt odor or the like is generated. For example, when the roasting process temperature is 200 ° C., the roasting process time is preferably about several seconds to 5 minutes, but not limited thereto. Conditions can be set as appropriate depending on the type of rice. Further, if the roasted rice is left as it is at a high temperature, it becomes a raw material rice having a quality different from that of the target rice due to the influence of residual heat. Therefore, it is desirable to take a cooling step such as air cooling if necessary. By this roasting process, the glutinous rice is subjected to heat denaturation, and the glutinous rice tissue becomes porous, which improves the breakage of cocoon fungi during kneading. That is, the roasting process is a process that forms the basis of the koji making method of the present invention.
[0008]
(Hydrolysis step)
Next, the hydration step may be performed as usual. As a hydration method, for example, a method of immersing and pulling up until it becomes necessary water in a dip tank, or a method of adding water to a drum type rotary tank containing raw rice and adding water while rotating the tank There is a method of watering and watering, or a method of re-drying after water addition, but not limited thereto. Further, the water temperature at the time of hydration is not particularly limited, but when it is desired to add water to roasted processed rice in a short time, it is at a high temperature (40-50 ° C.), and when it is desired to add water over a relatively long time, it is at a low temperature (10-10). (20 ° C.). The time for adding water is not particularly limited, as long as the raw rice can absorb moisture uniformly.
[0009]
Here, it will be described in detail in Experimental Example 1 below that the water-absorbing property of the roasted rice cake is greatly improved by the porous structure of the roasted rice rice being roasted.
(Experimental Example 1) After commercial rice bran rice (Nipponbare) was polished to 90% of the polished rice ratio, it was roasted at 240 ° C. for 70 seconds using a hot air generator [Takenet Seisakusho, TSK-60 type]. Thereafter, the weight of rice when water was absorbed for 0 to 270 minutes was measured, and the water content was calculated. FIG. 1 shows the change in the moisture of the glutinous rice due to the addition of water. The horizontal axis in FIG. 1 is the immersion time (minutes), the vertical axis is the moisture (% w / w) of the roasted rice after hydration, and the line connected by the square is when roasted rice is used. The line connected with a triangle represents the case where non-roasted non-roasted rice is used.
[0010]
From the results shown in FIG. 1, when glutinous rice having a water content of 14% w / w and a polished rice ratio of 90% was immersed in water, the water content was 35% w / w. On the other hand, when the same glutinous rice was roasted at 240 ° C. for 120 seconds, it was possible to absorb water up to a moisture content of 63% w / w.
[0011]
Considering the solubility of the finished rice bran, it is advantageous to increase the moisture of the rice before pulling so as not to affect the physical properties and operability of the rice bran. In that regard, the roasted rice that has been roasted can be expanded in the moisture setting range compared to non-roasted roasted rice.
[0012]
(Steaming process)
In the present invention, the roasted processed rice is steamed after being added. Although it is this steaming process, it becomes possible to raise the utilization rate of glutinous rice bran by raising the gelatinization rate of the starch in the glutinous rice after roasting processing, and promoting alpha production. Steaming may be carried out in accordance with a conventional method using a kojiki or pressurized continuous steaming apparatus, and may be performed with saturated and / or unsaturated steam under normal pressure or under pressure, and is not particularly limited. For example, it may be steamed at 100 ° C. and normal pressure for 60 minutes.
[0013]
(Steel making process)
Next, although it is a koji making process, it is common to culture for about 46 hours at 30 to 40 ° C. with a relative humidity of 90% or more after inoculating seed bean sprouts on steamed rice according to a conventional method. Is not to be done. The seed bean sprouts used are not particularly limited as long as they can be used in foods. In general, Aspergillus fungi (mainly yellow koji mold, black koji mold and white koji mold), spider mold, mold fungus, and koji mold etc. Can be used.
[0014]
It will be described in detail in Experimental Example 2 below that the roasting treatment greatly improves the solubility of the sticky rice.
(Experimental example 2) Koji making was carried out in accordance with the koji making process of koji rice koji shown in Table 1.
[0015]
[Table 1]
Figure 0004204171
[0016]
Using roasted rice with a rice polishing ratio of 90%, roasting of glutinous rice cakes (1), (2) and (5) was performed at 240 ° C. for 70 seconds using the hot air generator used in Experimental Example 1. . The dried rice cake (3) was dried at 40 ° C. for 17 hours. Next, water was added until the moisture shown in Table 1 was reached, and then steamed rice bran (1), (2), (3) and (4) were steamed at 100 ° C. for 60 minutes. All of these were seeded (using yellow koji mold) and koji-molded according to a conventional method to obtain a koji rice bran. After brewing, it was withered for about 3 hours and then subjected to rice bran analysis. Table 2 shows the analysis values of the rice bran rice analyzed in accordance with the 4th revision of the National Tax Agency's Comment on Analytical Methods (1993). Furthermore, Table 3 shows the results of mixing 50 g of water with 10 g of these glutinous rice bran and conducting a self-digestion test at 55 ° C. for 24 hours.
[0017]
[Table 2]
Figure 0004204171
[0018]
As can be seen from Table 2, the glutinous rice bran (1) to (5) obtained had enzyme titers useful as glutinous rice bran, and were particularly sufficient for mirin. However, the rice bran (5) was apt to be crushed during the kneading, and was difficult to operate. On the other hand, 粳米 麹 (1) (product of the present invention) and 粳米 麹 (2) (product of the present invention) were not easily crushed during the kneading and were easy to operate.
[0019]
[Table 3]
Figure 0004204171
[0020]
The solubilization rate means a numerical value calculated by the following formula (Formula 1) [However, dry weight g: 105 ° C., weight after 24 hours. ].
(Equation 1)
Solubilization rate (%) = {1- (dry weight g of residue after self-digestion / dry weight g of koji)} × 100
[0021]
As shown in Tables 2 and 3, 粳米 麹 ▲ 1 ▼ (product of the present invention) and 粳米 麹 ▲ 5 ▼ Invention product) had a solubilization rate of about 31% higher than that of 粳米 粳 5. In addition, glutinous rice bran (5) had a solubilization rate of about 23% lower than glutinous rice bran (4), although the glutinous rice water at the time of drawing was about 9% higher. From this, it can be seen that in order to increase the solubilization rate of the glutinous rice bran, it is not sufficient to simply increase the water content of the glutinous rice at the time of drawing, and it is desirable to steam after roasting and adding water. On the other hand, 粳米 麹 ▲ 2 ▼ (product of the present invention) and 粳米 麹 麹 (3) are 粳米 粳 ▲ 2 ▼ (product of the present invention) are 粳米 麹 ▲ 3 ▼ The solubilization rate was higher. In other words, the moisture content of steamed rice can be increased by the drying method of glutinous rice bran (3). It turns out that what gave today is superior. From the above, it can be said that in order to obtain a well-melted rice bran rice having a solubilization rate of 77% w / w or more, more preferably 80% w / w or more, it is better to roast the rice bran, add water and steam it. .
[0022]
Next, the moisture content of the fumigated rice and the performance of the obtained boiled rice bran at the time of drawing after roasting, water addition and steaming will be described in detail in Experimental Example 3 below.
(Experimental example 3) Using 90% polished rice, the roasting process was performed at 240 ° C for 70 seconds using the hot air generator used in Experimental example 1. Water was added to the roasted and treated roasted rice until it became moisture of (1) 30, (2) 35, (3) 40, and (4) 45% w / w, and then at 100 ° C. for 60 minutes at normal pressure. Steamed to obtain fumigated rice. All of these fumigated rice was seeded with mirin sprouts (using yellow koji mold) and kneaded in accordance with a conventional method to obtain a koji rice bran. After brewing, it was withered for about 3 hours and then subjected to rice bran analysis. Table 4 shows the results of the analysis of 粳米 麹 analyzed in accordance with the 4th revision of the NTA's Prescription Analysis Method (1993). Furthermore, Table 5 shows the results of mixing 50 g of water with 10 g of these rice bran and conducting a self-digestion test at 55 ° C. for 24 hours.
[0023]
[Table 4]
Figure 0004204171
[0024]
粳米 麹 (1), (2), and (3) were excellent in operability during and after slag making and good in slag making. In addition, as shown in Table 4, the enzyme activity and the amount of bacterial cells were sufficient as food and drink. On the other hand, rice bran (4) was not analyzed because the viscosity became high during koji making and the operability during and after koji making was poor.
[0025]
[Table 5]
Figure 0004204171
[0026]
The solubilization rate means a numerical value calculated by the equation (Equation 1) shown in Experimental Example 2.
[0027]
As is clear from Tables 4 and 5, the higher the moisture content of the fumigated rice at the time of drawing, the higher the solubilization rate, and the moisture content of the fumigated rice at the time of drawing in is 38% w / w. In 麹 (2)) and 42% w / w (粳米 麹 ③), the solubilization rate of 粳米 麹 is 80% w / w or more.
[0028]
As mentioned above, from the results of Experimental Example 2 and Experimental Example 3, the moisture of the fumigated rice at the time of drawing is 36% w / w or more and less than 46% w / w, more preferably 38% w / w or more and less than 46% w / w If so, it is possible to obtain a glutinous rice bran having a high solubilization rate of the glutinous rice bran and excellent operability during and after the brewing.
[0029]
The moisture of steamed rice in the present invention is the moisture of fumigated rice at the time of drawing.
[0030]
The moisture adjustment method of the fumigation rice at the time of drawing-in is arbitrary, and there is no limitation in particular in a hydration time and a hydration amount. For example, it can adjust so that it may become the said water | moisture content by adding water to the fumigation rice before drawing.
[0031]
Since the glutinous rice bran of the present invention can be melted during the brewing process, the yield as a product is improved.
[0032]
The type of food or drink that uses the rice bran koji of the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it is usually a food or drink manufactured using rice koji, but mirin, sake, reconstitution, red sake, miso, vinegar and Examples include brewed products such as fermented seasonings, and amazake, pickled cucumbers, pickles, confectionery, cooked rice, processed fishery products and the like are particularly suitable targets. Furthermore, what dried and frozen persimmon itself, the self-digested liquid, and the thing which dried this digested liquid are food-drinks of this invention.
