Description
本発明は、低脂肪タイプのプロセスチーズとその製造方法に関する。具体的には、高熟度の原料チーズを用いることで、チーズらしいコクと旨みが豊かで、口溶けが良好である低脂肪タイプのプロセスチーズの製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a low-fat type processed cheese and a method for producing the same. Specifically, the present invention relates to a method for producing a low-fat type process cheese that is rich in cheese-like richness and umami, and has good meltability by using high-ripe raw material cheese.
近年、健康への配慮から低脂肪タイプのプロセスチーズの需要が増加している。低脂肪タイプのプロセスチーズは、一般的に、通常のプロセスチーズと比較して、硬くボソボソとした食感であり、口溶けが悪く、チーズらしいコクや旨みといった風味の面でも劣っているため、広く普及していないのが現状である。 In recent years, the demand for low-fat type processed cheese has increased due to health considerations. Low-fat type processed cheese generally has a hard and voluminous texture compared to normal processed cheese, has a poor meltability, and is inferior in flavor and taste like cheese. The current situation is not widespread.
通常、プロセスチーズの製造では、溶融塩のはたらきによって、原料チーズ中のタンパク質である不溶性のカルシウム−パラカゼイネートが、水溶性のナトリウム−パラカゼイネートに変換されるとともに、カゼインが水和されて脂肪とO/W型の均一な乳化状態を形成する。この乳化状態は、脂肪とタンパク質の比率により大きな影響を受け、通常のプロセスチーズにおける脂肪とタンパク質の比率(脂肪/タンパク質比)は1以上である。 Usually, in the manufacture of processed cheese, the action of the molten salt converts insoluble calcium-paracaseinate, which is a protein in the raw cheese, into water-soluble sodium-paracaseinate and hydrates the casein. A uniform emulsified state of fat and O / W type is formed. This emulsified state is greatly affected by the ratio of fat to protein, and the ratio of fat to protein (fat / protein ratio) in ordinary process cheese is 1 or more.
一方、低脂肪タイプのプロセスチーズの場合、脂肪含量が下がることにより、相対的にタンパク質含量が高くなる(脂肪/タンパク質比が小さくなる)。その結果、プロセスチーズの組織を構成している水溶性のナトリウム−パラカゼイネートの比率が高くなり、組織がより緻密で均一になって、通常のプロセスチーズと比較して硬く口溶けの悪い組織となると考えられる。 On the other hand, in the case of low-fat type processed cheese, the protein content becomes relatively high (the fat / protein ratio becomes small) as the fat content decreases. As a result, the ratio of water-soluble sodium-paracaseinate that constitutes the structure of processed cheese is increased, the structure is more dense and uniform, and the structure is harder and less meltable than normal processed cheese. It is considered to be.
低脂肪タイプのプロセスチーズの物性を改良するための様々な試みがなされている。たとえば、特許文献1には、溶融塩としてクエン酸塩および/またはモノリン酸塩とW/O型乳化剤を併用して、低脂肪プロセスチーズを製造する方法が開示されている。この方法は、加熱調理時に適度なオイルオフが生じて均一に溶け、糸引き性を有するナチュラルチーズ様の低脂肪チーズを製造できるというものであるが、低脂肪チーズにおける口溶け等の食感や風味の改善効果を奏するものではない。 Various attempts have been made to improve the physical properties of low-fat type processed cheese. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a method for producing low-fat processed cheese by using a citrate and / or monophosphate and a W / O emulsifier in combination as a molten salt. This method is to produce a natural cheese-like low-fat cheese that has a moderate oil-off during cooking and melts evenly and has stringiness, but the texture and flavor of mouth-melting in low-fat cheese It does not have an improvement effect.
また、特許文献2には、低脂肪タイプのプロセスチーズの口溶けを改良するために、副原料にO/W型の乳化剤を使用する製造方法が提案されている。しかし、使用する乳化剤の種類や量によっては乳化剤由来の臭いや苦味が感じられる場合があり、口溶け等の食感を向上させる効果は記載されているものの、風味面の改善効果については言及されていない。一方、特許文献3には、タンパク質分解酵素を使用して、風味と物性を改良する低脂肪プロセスチーズの製造方法が提案されているが、酵素の不活性化が難しく、製品中に苦味を生じ易い等の問題がある。 Patent Document 2 proposes a production method using an O / W type emulsifier as an auxiliary material in order to improve the melting of low-fat type processed cheese. However, depending on the type and amount of the emulsifier used, the odor and bitterness derived from the emulsifier may be felt, and although the effect of improving the mouthfeel such as melting in the mouth is described, the effect of improving the flavor side is mentioned. Absent. On the other hand, Patent Document 3 proposes a method for producing low-fat processed cheese using a proteolytic enzyme to improve the flavor and physical properties, but it is difficult to inactivate the enzyme, resulting in a bitter taste in the product. There are problems such as easy.
このような技術背景のもと、本発明は、口溶けが良好な低脂肪プロセスチーズの製造方法と、この製造方法によって製造された低脂肪プロセスチーズを提供することを第一の目的とする。 Under such a technical background, the first object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a low-fat processed cheese with good melting in the mouth and a low-fat processed cheese produced by this production method.
さらに、低脂肪でありながらチーズらしいコクや旨みが豊かな低脂肪プロセスチーズの製造方法と、この製造方法によって製造された低脂肪プロセスチーズを提供することを第二の目的とする。 Furthermore, the second object is to provide a method for producing low-fat processed cheese rich in richness and taste like cheese while being low-fat, and a low-fat processed cheese produced by this production method.
本発明者らは、ナチュラルチーズにおいて、熟成が進行するとともにタンパク質のネットワークが分解されて、その構造が脆弱化することに着目し、鋭意検討した結果、原料となるナチュラルチーズ(以下、原料チーズとも呼ぶ)を特定することによって、プロセスチーズの食感を改良できることを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。 In the natural cheese, the present inventors paid attention to the fact that the ripening progresses and the protein network is decomposed to weaken its structure, and as a result of intensive studies, natural cheese (hereinafter referred to as raw material cheese) as a raw material has been studied. It was found that the texture of the processed cheese can be improved by specifying (calling), and the present invention has been completed.
本発明においては、低脂肪プロセスチーズを製造する際に使用する原料チーズ混合物において、熟度指標である水溶性窒素と全窒素の重量比(水溶性N/全N[重量%])を、25.0%以上に調整したものを、原料チーズ混合物として使用する。 In the present invention, the weight ratio of water-soluble nitrogen and total nitrogen (water-soluble N / total N [wt%]), which is a maturity index, in the raw cheese mixture used when producing low-fat processed cheese is 25 What was adjusted to 0.0 % or more is used as a raw cheese mixture.
本発明によって、低脂肪でありながら口溶けが良好な低脂肪プロセスチーズを製造できる。 According to the present invention, it is possible to produce a low-fat processed cheese that is low in fat and has good melting in the mouth.
さらに、本発明は、前述のように、熟度指標を用いて特定した原料チーズを使用することにより、口溶けの改善だけではなく、風味においても、従来の低脂肪タイプのプロセスチーズには無い、チーズらしいコクと旨味に富んだ低脂肪タイプのプロセスチーズを製造できるということも見出した。 Furthermore, as described above, the present invention, as described above, by using the raw material cheese specified by using the maturity index, not only in improving the melting of the mouth, but also in the flavor, there is no conventional low-fat type process cheese, It was also found that low-fat type processed cheese rich in cheese and rich in umami can be produced.

本発明における「プロセスチーズ」の語句は、加熱溶融の工程を経て得られるチーズを意味し、各種のプロセスチーズの他、チーズフード、チーズスプレッドを含むものとして定義される。 The phrase “process cheese” in the present invention means cheese obtained through a heating and melting step, and is defined as including various types of process cheese, cheese food, and cheese spread.
本発明において使用される原料チーズとしては、ゴーダチーズ、チェダーチーズ等のナチュラルチーズやこれらを低脂肪化したもの、脱脂チーズ等を用いることができる。これらを1種類または2種類以上組み合わせて、原料チーズの全量中における、水溶性窒素(水溶性N)と全窒素(全N)の重量比(水溶性N/全N(%)と表記)を24.0%以上に調整するとともに、製品中の脂肪含量を22重量%以下、脂肪/タンパク質比を1.0以下に調整する。 As raw material cheese used in the present invention, natural cheese such as gouda cheese and cheddar cheese, those obtained by reducing the fat of these, defatted cheese and the like can be used. By combining one or more of these, the weight ratio of water-soluble nitrogen (water-soluble N) and total nitrogen (total N) in the total amount of raw cheese (denoted as water-soluble N / total N (%)) While adjusting to 24.0% or more, the fat content in the product is adjusted to 22% by weight or less, and the fat / protein ratio is adjusted to 1.0 or less.
原料チーズの熟度は、水溶性N/全N(%)で表すことができる。本明細書において、水溶性窒素とは、熟成中にタンパク質が酵素によって分解されて生成する、分子量5,000以下のペプチドまたはアミノ酸に含まれる窒素のことである。これらの含量は、原料チーズ中で熟成の進行とともに増大する。熟成が進行したナチュラルチーズでは、タンパク質のネットワークが高度に分解されて、タンパク質構造が脆弱化している。このようなチーズをプロセスチーズの原料として使用することにより、その構造がプロセスチーズの組織にも反映され、口溶けの良い食感になるものと考えられる。本発明においては、原料チーズ全量中における水溶性N/全Nが24.0%以上で40.0%以下、より好ましくは25.0%以上で40.0%以下、さらに好ましくは26.0%以上で40.0%以下、さらに好ましくは28.0%以上で40.0%以下、最も好ましくは31.0%以上で40.0%以下となるように1種類または2種類以上の原料チーズを組み合わせて使用する。 The ripeness of raw material cheese can be represented by water-soluble N / total N (%).

表1の通り、熟度指標である水溶性N/全N(%)が各々異なる原料チーズ混合物を用いて低脂肪プロセスチーズを試作した。
熟度の異なるチェダーチーズ1.2kgおよび熟度一定の脱脂チーズ0.8kgを粉砕して表1に示す熟度指標(18%、23%、25%、26%、28%、31%)となるように調整した原料チーズ混合物をケトル型溶融釜に投入し、溶融塩としてトリポリリン酸ナトリウムを60g添加し、最終製品(低脂肪プロセスチーズ)の水分含有率が50重量%になるように水を加え、攪拌しながら90℃まで加温して溶融した。90℃達温後、パラフィルムとカルトンを使用して225gずつ包装し冷蔵し、本発明の低脂肪プロセスチーズを製造した。試作番号1A〜1Fの低脂肪プロセスチーズの脂肪含量と脂肪/タンパク質比は表1の通りであった。試作番号1A〜1Fの低脂肪プロセスチーズを3日間十分冷却した後、各種試験を行った。 Ripeness index (18%, 23%, 25%, 26%, 28%, 31%) shown in Table 1 after grinding 1.2 kg of cheddar cheese with different ripeness and 0.8 kg of defatted cheese with constant ripeness The raw material cheese mixture adjusted to become is put into a kettle-type melting kettle, 60 g of sodium tripolyphosphate is added as a molten salt, and water is added so that the water content of the final product (low-fat processed cheese) is 50% by weight. In addition, the mixture was melted by heating to 90 ° C. with stirring. After reaching 90 ° C., 225 g each was packed using parafilm and carton and refrigerated to produce the low-fat processed cheese of the present invention. Table 1 shows the fat content and fat / protein ratio of the low-fat processed cheeses of prototype numbers 1A to 1F. Various tests were performed after the low-fat processed cheeses of prototype numbers 1A to 1F were sufficiently cooled for 3 days.
試作番号1A〜1Fについて、専門パネラーにより官能評価(口溶け、旨味)を行った。 For the trial production numbers 1A to 1F, sensory evaluation (melted in the mouth, umami) was performed by a specialized panelist.
試作番号1A〜1Fについて、チーズ中に存在する旨味成分を評価した。旨味成分は、最終製品である低脂肪プロセスチーズ中のPTA可溶性窒素含量(PTA可溶性N含量と表記する)を測定し、最終製品1g中のPTA可溶性窒素量を算出することで評価した。PTA可溶性窒素とは、タンパク質が酵素によって分解されて生成する、分子量約600以下の低分子ペプチドやアミノ酸に含まれる窒素のことであり、チーズ中に存在する旨味成分量の指標として使用することができる。チーズ中のPTA可溶性窒素含量の測定法は次のとおりである。 About trial manufacture numbers 1A-1F, the umami ingredient which exists in cheese was evaluated. The umami component was evaluated by measuring the PTA-soluble nitrogen content (denoted as PTA-soluble N content) in the low-fat processed cheese, which is the final product, and calculating the amount of PTA-soluble nitrogen in 1 g of the final product. PTA-soluble nitrogen is nitrogen contained in low molecular weight peptides and amino acids having a molecular weight of about 600 or less, which is produced by degrading proteins with enzymes, and can be used as an indicator of the amount of umami components present in cheese. it can. The measuring method of the PTA soluble nitrogen content in cheese is as follows.
[PTA可溶性窒素量]
(1)試料(チーズ)5gに約50℃に加温した0.05Mクエン酸ナトリウム・二水和物溶液を60ml加え、回転式ホモゲナイザーを用いて8000rpmで約3分間、ホモジナイズする。

(6) Toyo filter paper no. Filter with 5A, take 2 ml of the filtrate, and quantify nitrogen by the Kjeldahl method. The obtained value is the amount of PTA-soluble nitrogen per gram of cheese.
試作番号1A〜1Fについて、最終製品の硬さを評価した。硬さはレオメーターの針入硬度で評価した。針入硬度は、レオメーター(不動工業社製)を用いて定法に従い測定した。針入硬度の測定には直径3mmの円柱状プランジャーを使用し、試料台の昇降スピードは5cm/分とした。 About the trial production numbers 1A-1F, the hardness of the final product was evaluated. The hardness was evaluated by the penetration hardness of a rheometer. The penetration hardness was measured according to a conventional method using a rheometer (manufactured by Fudo Kogyo Co., Ltd.). For the measurement of the penetration hardness, a cylindrical plunger with a diameter of 3 mm was used, and the ascending / descending speed of the sample stage was 5 cm / min.
試作番号1A〜1Fの評価結果を表2に示す。 Table 2 shows the evaluation results of the prototype numbers 1A to 1F.
官能評価の結果、原料チーズ混合物の熟度指標(水溶性N/全N)25%以上の原料を使用した試作品(1C、1D、1E、1F)は、口溶けが良好であり、チーズらしいコクと旨味にも富んでいた。また、熟度指標(水溶性N/全N)25%以上の原料を使用した試作品(1C、1D、1E、1F)は、熟度指標(水溶性N/全N)23%以下の原料を使用した試作品(1A、1B)と比較して、針入硬度は小さい値を示し、PTA可溶性窒素含量は高い値を示した。これらは、熟度指標(水溶性N/全N)25%以上の原料を使用した試作品が、口溶けが良好であり、チーズらしいコクと旨味に富んでいることを客観的に示しており、官能評価と一致するものであった。 As a result of sensory evaluation, the prototype (1C, 1D, 1E, 1F) using a raw material with a maturity index of the raw cheese mixture (water-soluble N / total N) of 25% or more has a good melt in the mouth, and is rich in cheese It was rich in umami. Prototypes (1C, 1D, 1E, 1F) using raw materials having a maturity index (water-soluble N / total N) of 25% or more are raw materials having a maturity index (water-soluble N / total N) of 23% or less. Compared with the prototypes (1A, 1B) using No. 1, the penetration hardness showed a small value and the PTA soluble nitrogen content showed a high value. These objectively show that the prototype using a raw material with a maturity index (water-soluble N / total N) of 25% or more has a good mouth melt and is rich in cheese-like richness and deliciousness. It was consistent with the sensory evaluation.
表3に示す内容でプロセスチーズを試作した。 Process cheese was prototyped with the contents shown in Table 3.
熟度の異なるチェダーチーズ1.2kgおよび熟度一定の脱脂チーズ0.8kgを粉砕して表3に示す熟度指標(18%、25%)となるように調整した原料チーズ混合物をケトル型溶融釜に投入し、溶融塩としてトリポリリン酸ナトリウムを60g添加し、最終製品(プロセスチーズ)の水分含有率が50重量%になるように水を加え、2AではさらにO/W型乳化剤(コハク酸モノステアリン酸グリセリン)を0.5重量%となるように添加し、攪拌しながら90℃まで加温して溶融した。90℃達温後、パラフィルムとカルトンを使用して225gずつ包装し冷蔵した。3日間十分冷却した後、実施例1と同様に、試作品の針入硬度(10℃)およびPTA可溶性窒素含量を測定し、専門パネラーにより官能評価(口溶け、旨味)を行った。結果を表4に示す。 Kettle-type melting of raw cheese mixture prepared by crushing 1.2 kg of cheddar cheese with different ripeness and 0.8 kg of defatted cheese with constant ripeness to the maturity index shown in Table 3 (18%, 25%) Into the kettle, 60g of sodium tripolyphosphate was added as a molten salt, water was added so that the final product (process cheese) had a water content of 50% by weight, and in 2A, O / W type emulsifier (succinic acid mono (Glyceryl stearate) was added so that it might become 0.5 weight%, and it heated and melted to 90 degreeC, stirring. After reaching 90 ° C., 225 g each was packed using parafilm and carton and refrigerated. After sufficiently cooling for 3 days, the penetration hardness (10 ° C.) and the PTA soluble nitrogen content of the prototype were measured in the same manner as in Example 1, and sensory evaluation (melted in the mouth, umami) was performed by a specialized panelist. The results are shown in Table 4.
試作番号2Aは、先の実施例1における1Aに乳化剤を添加して製造したものである。乳化剤の添加により、熟度の低い原料チーズであっても口溶けは向上したが、旨みは満足のいくものではなかった。これに対し、熟度が25%で乳化剤を添加しない2Bは、口溶けが良好で、さらに、官能評価による風味(旨味)の評価も良好で、かつ、旨味の指標となるPTA可溶性窒素含量も2Bは2Aよりも高い値を示した。これらの結果から、熟度指標(水溶性N/全N)25.0%の原料を使用した試作品(2B)は、乳化剤を添加しなくても、乳化剤を使用した試作品2Aと同等の良好な口溶けを有することに加えて、チーズらしいコクと旨味を有していることがわかる。 Prototype No. 2A is manufactured by adding an emulsifier to 1A in Example 1 above. The addition of an emulsifier improved the melting of the mouth even with low-ripe raw cheese, but the taste was not satisfactory. On the other hand, 2B with a maturity of 25% and no added emulsifier has good meltability in the mouth, and also has a good evaluation of flavor (umami) by sensory evaluation, and also has a PTA soluble nitrogen content of 2B as an indicator of umami. Showed a value higher than 2A. From these results, the prototype (2B) using a raw material with a maturity index (water-soluble N / total N) of 25.0% is equivalent to the prototype 2A using an emulsifier without adding an emulsifier. In addition to having a good melt in the mouth, it can be seen that it has a cheese-like richness and umami.
表5の通り、原料チーズの混合割合を変更し、脂肪含量の異なる低脂肪プロセスチーズを試作した。 As shown in Table 5, the mixing ratio of the raw cheese was changed, and low-fat processed cheeses having different fat contents were made as trial products.
熟度一定のチェダーチーズおよび脱脂チーズを粉砕して異なる割合で混合し、表5に示す最終製品(低脂肪プロセスチーズ)の脂肪含量となるように原料チーズ混合物を調整した。原料チーズ混合物2.0kgをケトル型溶融釜に投入し、溶融塩としてトリポリリン酸ナトリウムを60g添加し、最終製品(低脂肪プロセスチーズ)の水分含有率が50重量%になるように水を加え、攪拌しながら90℃まで加温して溶融した。90℃達温後、パラフィルムとカルトンを使用して225gずつ包装し冷蔵し、本発明の低脂肪プロセスチーズを製造した。3日間十分冷却した後、専門パネラーにより官能評価(口溶け、旨味)を行った。結果を表6に示す。 Cheddar cheese and defatted cheese of constant maturity were pulverized and mixed at different ratios, and the raw cheese mixture was adjusted to have the fat content of the final product (low-fat processed cheese) shown in Table 5. Add 2.0 kg of raw cheese mixture to kettle-type melting kettle, add 60 g of sodium tripolyphosphate as molten salt, add water so that the moisture content of the final product (low fat processed cheese) is 50% by weight, While stirring, the mixture was heated to 90 ° C. and melted. After reaching 90 ° C., 225 g each was packed using parafilm and carton and refrigerated to produce the low-fat processed cheese of the present invention. After sufficiently cooling for 3 days, sensory evaluation (melted in the mouth, umami) was performed by a specialized panelist. The results are shown in Table 6.
脂肪含量、脂肪/タンパク質比の異なった、いずれのサンプルも口溶けが良好であり、チーズらしいコクと旨味を有していた。 All samples with different fat contents and fat / protein ratios were well melted in the mouth and had a cheese-like richness and taste.
粉砕したゴーダチーズ28kgおよびチェダーチーズ36kg、脱脂チーズ36kgを混合して原料チーズとした。原料チーズ混合物の熟度指標は24%であった。これに、溶融塩としてトリポリリン酸ナトリウムを3kgと、最終製品(低脂肪プロセスチーズ)の水分含有率が49重量%となるように水を加え、ケトル型溶融釜で蒸気を吹き込みながら攪拌して89℃まで加温して溶融した。89℃達温後、チーズ充填機にて20gのポーションの形状に充填した。冷却後の製品は、脂肪含量18.5%、脂肪/タンパク質比0.72であり、通常の脂肪含量のプロセスチーズ製品と同等の口溶けとチーズらしいコクと旨味を有していた。 28 kg of crushed gouda cheese, 36 kg of cheddar cheese, and 36 kg of defatted cheese were mixed to obtain raw cheese. The maturity index of the raw cheese mixture was 24%. To this, 3 kg of sodium tripolyphosphate as a molten salt and water were added so that the final product (low-fat processed cheese) had a water content of 49% by weight, and the mixture was stirred while blowing steam in a kettle-type melting kettle. It was heated up to ° C and melted. After reaching 89 ° C., it was filled into a 20 g portion by a cheese filling machine. The product after cooling had a fat content of 18.5% and a fat / protein ratio of 0.72, and had a mouth-melting and cheese-like richness and umami taste similar to a processed cheese product having a normal fat content.
