本発明は、電子レンジで加熱調理されても食感が維持された電子レンジ加熱調理耐性食材の製造方法に関する。より詳しくは、細胞壁を有し、電子レンジで加熱調理しても食感が軟化しにくい電子レンジ加熱調理耐性食材の製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for producing a microwave oven cooking resistant food material whose texture is maintained even when cooked in a microwave oven. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for producing a microwave oven-cooking-resistant food material which has a cell wall and whose texture does not easily soften even when cooked in a microwave oven.
近年、食生活や生活スタイルなどの変化に伴い様々な食品が開発され、市場に登場している。なかでも即席食品は、調理の手軽さ、味や品質の向上、容器などが付属していることによる喫食の簡便さが消費者に受け入れられ、順調に売り上げを伸ばしている。 In recent years, various foods have been developed and are appearing on the market due to changes in eating habits and lifestyles. Among them, instant foods are steadily increasing in sales because consumers have accepted the ease of cooking, the improvement of taste and quality, and the ease of eating due to the attachment of containers.
即席食品の調理方法としては、注湯して復元させる方法や、電子レンジなどで加熱調理する方法が存在する。即席食品に用いられる食材は、それぞれの調理法に適した加工が施されており、喫食時に最適な食感となるようになっている。 As a method of cooking instant food, there are a method of pouring hot water to restore the food and a method of cooking by heating in a microwave oven or the like. Ingredients used for instant foods are processed to suit each cooking method so that they have the optimum texture when eating.
例えば、従来は、唐揚げやとんかつなどの衣付きの冷凍食品を電子レンジで加熱調理すると、衣が剥がれやすくなったり、水分によってべたついたりするなどの問題があった。しかし、現在は揚げたての食感を味わえるような製法が知られている(特許文献1参照)。 For example, in the past, when frozen foods with batter such as fried chicken and pork cutlet were cooked in a microwave oven, there were problems that the batter was easily peeled off and the food became sticky due to moisture. However, at present, a manufacturing method is known in which a freshly fried texture can be enjoyed (see Patent Document 1).
ところで、細胞壁を有する食材は、加熱する温度帯によって軟化したり硬化したりすることが知られている。例えば、60度付近の低温域で加熱すると食材は硬化し、90度以上の高温域で加熱すると食材は軟化する。そのため、冷凍食品を電子レンジで加熱調理すると、冷凍食品中に含まれる細胞壁を有する食材は軟化してしまうことが多かった。 By the way, it is known that a food material having a cell wall softens or hardens depending on the heating temperature range. For example, when heated in a low temperature range of around 60 degrees, the foodstuff is hardened, and when heated in a high temperature range of 90 degrees or higher, the foodstuff is softened. Therefore, when the frozen food is cooked in a microwave oven, the food having a cell wall contained in the frozen food is often softened.
一方、細胞壁を有する食材は、別の理由でも軟化することが知られている。一例としては、酸による加水分解が挙げられる。また、他の例としては、ペクチンのβ離脱が挙げられる。ペクチンのβ離脱とは、細胞壁および細胞間隙にあるペクチンが加熱によって低分子化することである。さらに、酸による加水分解とペクチンのβ離脱は、加熱によっても促進されることが知られている。 On the other hand, it is known that foodstuffs having a cell wall are softened for another reason. One example is acid hydrolysis. Another example is β withdrawal of pectin. Beta withdrawal of pectin means that the pectin in the cell wall and intercellular spaces is reduced in molecular weight by heating. Furthermore, it is known that acid hydrolysis and β-withdrawal of pectin are also promoted by heating.
ここで、食感のある食材としてレンコンやゴボウ、または、俗にいうカリカリ梅などの漬物が知られている。しかし、これらの食材も調理直後は歯ごたえがあるものの、少なからず酸による加水分解やペクチンのβ離脱などが起こっている。そして、レンコンやゴボウ、カリカリ梅などを一旦冷凍してから電子レンジで加熱調理すると、電子レンジの加熱によって酸による加水分解やペクチンのβ離脱が促進され、特有の歯ごたえが失われてしまうといった問題があった。そのため、電子レンジ加熱調理後でも食材の歯ごたえを味わうためには、電子レンジによる加熱調理前の段階において、酸による加水分解やペクチンのβ離脱を極力抑えることが重要となる。 Here, pickles such as lotus root, burdock, and so-called crispy plum are known as foodstuffs having a texture. However, although these ingredients are also chewy immediately after cooking, not a little acid hydrolysis and β withdrawal of pectin occur. When lotus root, burdock, crispy plum, etc. are frozen and then cooked in a microwave oven, the heating of the microwave oven promotes hydrolysis by acid and β-withdrawal of pectin, resulting in loss of peculiar texture. was there. Therefore, in order to enjoy the chewy texture of foods even after cooking in a microwave oven, it is important to suppress hydrolysis by acid and β withdrawal of pectin as much as possible before cooking in a microwave oven.
本発明はこれらの不都合に鑑みてなされたものであり、電子レンジ加熱調理した場合でも、歯ごたえを維持した食材を提供することを目的とするものである。 The present invention has been made in view of these inconveniences, and an object of the present invention is to provide a food material that maintains its chewy texture even when cooked in a microwave oven.
上記課題解決のため、本発明は細胞壁を有し、電子レンジで加熱調理しても歯ごたえを失わない電子レンジ加熱調理耐性食材の製造方法であって、梅を漬け込む調味液のpHが4.0〜5.3となっていることを特徴とする電子レンジ加熱調理耐性食材の製造方法を提供する。 In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is a method for producing a microwave-cooking-resistant foodstuff that has a cell wall and does not lose its chewy texture even when cooked in a microwave oven, and has a pH of 4.0 for a seasoning liquid in which plums are soaked. Provided is a method for producing a microwave oven-cooking resistant foodstuff, which is characterized by having a value of ~ 5.3.
かかる構成によれば、調味液のpHを弱酸性寄りにすることにより酸加水分解が抑制することができる。これにより、加熱調理をしても酸加水分解が促進されず、電子レンジによる加熱調理後においても歯ごたえを維持することができる。 According to such a configuration, acid hydrolysis can be suppressed by making the pH of the seasoning liquid closer to weak acidity. As a result, acid hydrolysis is not promoted even when cooking is performed, and the texture can be maintained even after cooking with a microwave oven.
本発明により、電子レンジ調理を行っても食感を維持した食材を製造することができる。また、当該製造方法により製造された食材を用いることにより、冷凍食材であっても食材本来の食感が楽しむことができる。 INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY According to the present invention, it is possible to produce a food material that maintains its texture even when it is cooked in a microwave oven. Further, by using the foodstuff manufactured by the manufacturing method, the original texture of the foodstuff can be enjoyed even if it is a frozen foodstuff.
以下、本発明を実施するための好適な形態について、カリカリ梅(以下、単に「梅干し」という場合がある)を例に説明する。なお、以下に説明する実施形態は一例を示したものにすぎず、他の公知技術を自由に用いることを制限するものではない。 Hereinafter, a suitable embodiment for carrying out the present invention will be described by taking crispy plums (hereinafter, may be simply referred to as “pickled plums”) as an example. It should be noted that the embodiments described below are merely examples, and do not limit the free use of other known techniques.
本実施形態に用いられる梅干し用の梅としては、漬け込み前に所定の固さ(圧縮強度)を維持するものであればよい。具体的には青梅、塩蔵の梅などが挙げられるが、本方法にて梅干しを製造する場合、塩蔵の梅を用いることが好ましい。塩蔵の梅を用いることで、梅内部に酸が濃縮しており、後述する処理工程時間を短縮することができる。梅の種類については、特に制限されない。ここで、所定の固さとは、咀嚼時に梅が「カリッ」と音を立てて破断する程度の固さをいう。より具体的には、レオメーターによる試験において、最大荷重が2.4N以上であることが好ましい。2.4N未満だと、電子レンジで加熱調理した際に食感が失われている恐れがある。なお、最大荷重の上限については特に制限されず、喫食に適した固さであればよい。 The umeboshi used in the present embodiment may be any ume that maintains a predetermined hardness (compressive strength) before being pickled. Specific examples thereof include ome and salted plums, but when the dried plums are produced by this method, it is preferable to use salted plums. By using salted plums, the acid is concentrated inside the plums, and the processing process time described later can be shortened. There are no particular restrictions on the type of plum. Here, the predetermined hardness means the hardness to which the plum breaks with a "crisp" sound when chewed. More specifically, in the test with a rheometer, the maximum load is preferably 2.4 N or more. If it is less than 2.4N, the texture may be lost when cooking in a microwave oven. The upper limit of the maximum load is not particularly limited, and may be any hardness suitable for eating.
次に、漬け込み梅の製造方法について説明する。
まず、塩蔵梅を対梅20%程度の食塩を用いて洗浄する。洗浄した塩蔵梅から種を除き、適当な大きさにカットする。ここで、本実施形態にかかる梅干しの最終形状としては、丸ごとであってもよいし、ダイスカットしたものであってもよい。ダイスカットの大きさとしては5〜10mm程度が好ましい。5mm未満だと調味液への浸漬時間は短くなるが、細かすぎてせっかくの梅の食感を感じられない事に加え、混ぜ込み具材として用いる場合に見栄えが悪くなるといった不都合が生じる。一方、10mmより大きい場合、カット後の形状は扁平な形状となり、一般的に見られないカット梅となる。ダイスカットは漬け込み前に行うことが好ましいが、漬け込み後に行ってもよい。
Next, a method for producing pickled plums will be described.
First, the salted plums are washed with about 20% salt to the plums. Remove the seeds from the washed salted plums and cut into appropriate sizes. Here, the final shape of the pickled plums according to the present embodiment may be whole or die-cut. The size of the die cut is preferably about 5 to 10 mm. If it is less than 5 mm, the immersion time in the seasoning liquid will be short, but in addition to the fact that it is too fine to feel the texture of plums, there are inconveniences such as poor appearance when used as a mixing ingredient. On the other hand, when it is larger than 10 mm, the shape after cutting becomes a flat shape, and it becomes a cut plum which is not generally seen. The dice cut is preferably performed before soaking, but may be performed after soaking.
次に、カットした梅を調味液に浸漬する。調味液の組成としては、酢酸、酵母エキス、アルコール、色素、pH調整剤などを組み合わせたものを用いることができる。
pH調整剤としては、クエン酸、乳酸、またはこれらのナトリウム塩などが挙げられる。このうち、クエン酸及び/又はそのナトリウム塩、乳酸及び/又はそのナトリウム塩を用いることが好ましい。
調味液全体のpHとしては、梅を浸漬させる前の段階においてpH4.0〜5.3が好ましい。かかる範囲にすることで、酸による加水分解及びβ離脱を抑制することができる。一方、好みにもよるがpHが2未満だと、酸味が強すぎて食すのに適さないと感じる人が多い範囲となる。また、pHが5.5より大きいと、クエン酸や乳酸が析出してしまう事に加え、天然着色料を使用している場合は紫がかった色になる為好ましくない。さらに、析出したクエン酸や乳酸の結晶が梅干しに付くと、梅干しの表面の色が白抜けしてしまい、斑模様となってしまう。
Next, the cut plums are dipped in the seasoning liquid. As the composition of the seasoning liquid, a combination of acetic acid, yeast extract, alcohol, pigment, pH adjuster and the like can be used.
Examples of the pH adjuster include citric acid, lactic acid, or sodium salts thereof. Of these, citric acid and / or a sodium salt thereof, lactic acid and / or a sodium salt thereof is preferably used.
The pH of the whole seasoning liquid is preferably pH 4.0 to 5.3 in the stage before immersing the plums. Within such a range, hydrolysis by acid and β withdrawal can be suppressed. On the other hand, depending on the taste, if the pH is less than 2, many people feel that the acidity is too strong to be suitable for eating. Further, if the pH is higher than 5.5, citric acid and lactic acid are precipitated, and when a natural colorant is used, the color becomes purplish, which is not preferable. Further, when the precipitated citric acid or lactic acid crystals adhere to the pickled plums, the color of the surface of the pickled plums becomes white and becomes a mottled pattern.
調味液には、必要に応じてさらに添加物を添加してもよい。添加物としては、赤紫蘇、酒、にがり等の一般食品や、乳酸カルシウム等の食品添加物が挙げられる。このうち、多価金属イオンを含む物質が好ましい。多価金属イオンを含む物質を添加することにより、多価金属イオンを介してペクチン同士の架橋構造を形成させることができ、エステル化度を低下させることができる。エステル化度を低下させることで、β離脱を抑制させることができる。 Additives may be further added to the seasoning liquid as needed. Examples of the additive include general foods such as red perilla, liquor and bittern, and food additives such as calcium lactate. Of these, substances containing polyvalent metal ions are preferable. By adding a substance containing polyvalent metal ions, a crosslinked structure between pectins can be formed via the polyvalent metal ions, and the degree of esterification can be reduced. By lowering the degree of esterification, β withdrawal can be suppressed.
乳酸カルシウムを用いる場合、添加量としては調味液全体に対して5%以内であることが好ましい。5%以上添加すると乳酸カルシウムが析出してしまう。析出した乳酸カルシウムの結晶が梅干しに付くと、梅干しの表面の色が白抜けしてしまい、斑模様となってしまうため、商品価値が下がる。 When calcium lactate is used, the amount added is preferably 5% or less with respect to the total seasoning liquid. If 5% or more is added, calcium lactate will precipitate. When the precipitated calcium lactate crystals adhere to the pickled plums, the color of the surface of the pickled plums becomes white and becomes a mottled pattern, which lowers the commercial value.
調味液と梅との重量比は、梅を100としたとき、調味液は45〜65であることが好ましく、50〜60であることが好ましい。調味液の比率が45未満では梅が十分漬からない恐れがある。一方、調味液の比率が65を超えると、効果に差が認められない。調味液への浸漬時間は24時間程度が好ましい。なお、赤梅にする場合は染色状態による為、これに限らない。 The weight ratio of the seasoning liquid to the plum is preferably 45 to 65, preferably 50 to 60, when the plum is 100. If the ratio of the seasoning liquid is less than 45, the plums may not be sufficiently pickled. On the other hand, when the ratio of the seasoning liquid exceeds 65, no difference is observed in the effect. The immersion time in the seasoning liquid is preferably about 24 hours. In addition, when making red plum, it is not limited to this because it depends on the dyeing state.
調味液に浸漬後、液切りを行う。液切り方法としては、放置による自然落下で行ってもよいし、遠心装置を用いて行ってもよい。液切りの程度としては、他の食品に調味液の影響が出ない程度液切りができていればよい。 After soaking in the seasoning liquid, drain the liquid. As the method of draining the liquid, it may be carried out by free fall due to being left unattended, or it may be carried out by using a centrifuge device. As for the degree of drainage, it is sufficient that the liquid is drained to the extent that the seasoning liquid does not affect other foods.
以下、実施例に基づいて本発明をさらに具体的に説明する。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail based on Examples.

各実施例および比較例にかかるおにぎり3個を、電子レンジで500w、5分30秒加熱した。解凍した各おにぎりから梅干しを回収し、小型卓上試験機(EZ−S)(島津製作所製)を用いて、圧縮強度を測定した。このとき、φ2、円柱押し治具を用いて、降下速度は30mm/minで行った。また、液切り直後の梅干しに付いても圧縮強度を測定した。
<Compressive strength test>
Three rice balls according to each Example and Comparative Example were heated in a microwave oven at 500 w for 5 minutes and 30 seconds. Umeboshi was collected from each thawed rice ball, and the compressive strength was measured using a small tabletop tester (EZ-S) (manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation). At this time, the descent speed was 30 mm / min using a φ2 cylinder pushing jig. In addition, the compressive strength was also measured on the dried plums immediately after draining.
<官能評価>
各実施例および比較例にかかるおにぎり3個を、電子レンジで500w、5分30秒加熱した。解凍した各おにぎりから梅干しを回収し、得られた梅干しをベテランパネラー5名で喫食し、官能評価を行った。官能評価は、下記評価に従い行った。得られた評価のうち、最も多い評価を当該サンプルの評価とした。
<Sensory evaluation>
Three rice balls according to each Example and Comparative Example were heated in a microwave oven at 500 w for 5 minutes and 30 seconds. Umeboshi was collected from each thawed rice ball, and the obtained umeboshi was eaten by five veteran panelists and subjected to sensory evaluation. The sensory evaluation was performed according to the following evaluation. Of the evaluations obtained, the most frequently evaluated was the evaluation of the sample.

圧縮強度試験と官能評価の結果を表1に示す。 The results of the compressive strength test and the sensory evaluation are shown in Table 1.
表1から明らかなように、調味液のpHをクエン酸3ナトリウムで弱酸性寄り(pH4.4〜5.3)にすると、加熱調理前後の圧縮強度が、比較例1(pH3.3)に比べてそれぞれ増加していることがわかる。特に、実施例2,3においては、加熱調理後の圧縮強度が比較例1に比べて2倍以上に増加していることがわかる。また、加熱調理前後の圧縮強度差は、比較例1に比べて減少しており、pHが中性に近づくほど圧縮強度差は減少していることが見て取れる。さらに、実施例3では、圧縮強度差が比較例1の約1/4程度まで減少していることがわかる。これらの値による効果は、官能評価においても如実に現れている。実施例1〜3においては、凍結前の梅干と同じく歯ごたえが確認された。これらの結果は、次のような作用機序によるものと考えられる。上述したように、軟化には酸による加水分解が考えられる。しかしながら、調味液のpHを弱酸性寄りにすることにより酸加水分解が抑制され、結果、加熱調理をしても梅が軟化せず、歯ごたえが維持されたものと考えられる。 As is clear from Table 1, when the pH of the seasoning liquid is made slightly acidic with 3 sodium citrate (pH 4.4 to 5.3), the compressive strength before and after cooking is comparable to Comparative Example 1 (pH 3.3). It can be seen that each is increasing in comparison. In particular, in Examples 2 and 3, it can be seen that the compressive strength after cooking is more than doubled as compared with Comparative Example 1. Further, the difference in compressive strength before and after cooking is smaller than that in Comparative Example 1, and it can be seen that the difference in compressive strength decreases as the pH approaches neutrality. Further, in Example 3, it can be seen that the difference in compressive strength is reduced to about 1/4 of that in Comparative Example 1. The effect of these values is clearly shown in the sensory evaluation. In Examples 1 to 3, the chewy texture was confirmed as in the case of umeboshi before freezing. These results are considered to be due to the following mechanism of action. As mentioned above, hydrolysis with acid can be considered for softening. However, it is considered that acid hydrolysis was suppressed by making the pH of the seasoning liquid closer to weak acidity, and as a result, the plums did not soften even when cooked and the texture was maintained.
表2から明らかなように、調味液のpHを乳酸ナトリウムで弱酸性寄り(pH4.0〜5.3)にすると、加熱調理前後の圧縮強度が、比較例2(pH3.3)に比べてそれぞれ増加していることがわかる。特に、実施例5,6においては、加熱調理後の圧縮強度が比較例2に比べて2倍以上に増加していることがわかる。また、加熱調理前後の圧縮強度差は、比較例2に比べて減少しており、pHが中性に近づくほど圧縮強度差は減少していることが見て取れる。さらに、実施例6では、圧縮強度差が比較例2の約1/3程度まで減少していることがわかる。これらの値による効果は、官能評価においても如実に現れている。実施例4〜6においては、凍結前の梅干と同じく歯ごたえが確認された。
以上の結果から、pH調整剤の種類に関わらず、pHによって酸加水分解による軟化を防げることが示唆された。
As is clear from Table 2, when the pH of the seasoning liquid is made slightly acidic (pH 4.0 to 5.3) with sodium lactate, the compressive strength before and after cooking is higher than that of Comparative Example 2 (pH 3.3). It can be seen that each is increasing. In particular, in Examples 5 and 6, it can be seen that the compressive strength after cooking is more than doubled as compared with Comparative Example 2. Further, the difference in compressive strength before and after cooking is smaller than that in Comparative Example 2, and it can be seen that the difference in compressive strength decreases as the pH approaches neutrality. Further, in Example 6, it can be seen that the difference in compressive strength is reduced to about 1/3 of that in Comparative Example 2. The effect of these values is clearly shown in the sensory evaluation. In Examples 4 to 6, the chewy texture was confirmed as in the case of umeboshi before freezing.
From the above results, it was suggested that pH can prevent softening due to acid hydrolysis regardless of the type of pH adjuster.
また、表1,2に示すように、加熱調理前後の圧縮強度差が1.5N/mm2未満であれば、電子レンジ調理加熱後においても歯ごたえが維持されることが示唆された。 Further, as shown in Tables 1 and 2, it was suggested that if the difference in compressive strength before and after cooking was less than 1.5 N / mm 2 , the texture was maintained even after cooking in a microwave oven.
以上説明したように、本発明によれば、pH調整を行うことにより、電子レンジによる加熱調理前の段階での酸による加水分解を極力抑えることができる。これにより、電子レンジ加熱によって促進される酸による加水分解が減るため、結果として電子レンジによる加熱調理後も歯ごたえを維持することができる。そして、従来であれば一旦冷凍してしまうと歯ごたえを失いやすい食材であっても、加熱調理後も歯ごたえを維持することができるという、極めて優れた効果を奏する。 As described above, according to the present invention, by adjusting the pH, hydrolysis by acid in the stage before cooking in a microwave oven can be suppressed as much as possible. As a result, hydrolysis by acid promoted by microwave oven heating is reduced, and as a result, the texture can be maintained even after cooking by microwave oven. In the past, even foods that tend to lose their chewy texture once frozen can maintain their chewy texture even after cooking, which is an extremely excellent effect.
なお、上記実施例では500W、5分30秒で加熱した場合を例に説明したが、熱量が同じであればワット数や時間を変更してもよい。また、食材の容量等に応じて、ワット数や時間は当然変更可能である。 In the above embodiment, the case of heating at 500 W for 5 minutes and 30 seconds has been described as an example, but the wattage and the time may be changed as long as the amount of heat is the same. Of course, the wattage and time can be changed according to the capacity of the food.
