The present invention relates to a method for enhancing the flavor of citrus peel. More specifically, the present invention is a method for enhancing the flavor of citrus peels, which enhances the flavor unique to citrus fruits by subjecting the citrus peels to superheated steam treatment under pressure. Generally, the peel of citrus fruits has a unique strong flavor, and that flavor is used in many things. In particular, the air-dried skin of the ripe mandarin fruit called Chenpi is used as a condiment by grinding it into shichimi chili peppers, or by pickling it together to enhance its flavor. is also used. In addition, Chenpi has a light bitterness and a mandarin orange aroma.
Since ancient times, it has been known as yellow orange peel, orange peel, orange peel, orange peel, orange peel, etc., and has been used as a spice. In this way, the unique flavor of mandarin oranges possessed by mandarin peel has been widely used, but conventionally mandarin peels are simply air-dried to produce mandarin peels, so the amount of flavor in mandarin oranges is unavoidable. There was a limit. Therefore,
When using Chinese peel as a flavoring agent, it is necessary to use a large amount of Chinese peel in order to fully utilize the flavor of Chinese peel in the final product. Nevertheless, there has been no method to enhance the flavor of citrus peels containing the above-mentioned citrus peels. In view of the current situation, the present inventors have developed a method for processing citrus peels in order to obtain citrus peels in which the characteristic flavor of citrus peels, including conventional citrus peels, is well enhanced, and at the same time, the color is clear. As a result of various research into methods, the inventors found that the desired citrus peel can be obtained by subjecting the citrus peel to superheated steam treatment under pressure, and based on this knowledge, the present invention was completed. That is, the present invention is a method for enhancing the flavor of citrus peel, which is characterized by subjecting the citrus peel to superheated steam treatment under pressure. Citrus peel as used in the present invention refers to all citrus peels such as citrus peel, citrus peel, yuzu and lemon peel, and the citrus peel to be treated by the method of the present invention includes dried peel, Any raw food is fine. In carrying out the present invention, first, citrus peel is collected from citrus fruits, sieved, and then cut to an appropriate size by conventional cutting or crushing means. The size of the citrus peel obtained by cutting or crushing may be as long as it is not inconvenient when transported to the equipment used in the subsequent superheated steam treatment process, but it is preferably as large as possible. After the superheated steam treatment, it is preferable to cut or grind to an appropriate size. This is because the smaller the size of the citrus peel before the superheated steam treatment, the more the flavor of the citrus peel obtained after the treatment becomes scattered. Incidentally, a cutter or the like may be used as the cutting device, and a stamp mill or the like may be used as the crusher. The sieving of the citrus peel may also be carried out at any time after the superheated steam treatment. Next, the cut or crushed citrus peel obtained as described above is subjected to superheated steam treatment under pressure. It is possible to use any type of equipment such as a steamer or an air current pressure steaming type, but it is desirable that the equipment is capable of rapidly raising the temperature of the product. When using it, for example, when using a closed pressurized steaming type pressure cooker, citrus peels are placed in a vat, the surface of which is leveled, and then carried into the kettle, and superheated steam is directly introduced into the kettle to superheat it. Steam treatment is sufficient, and if an airflow type is used, the citrus peel may be subjected to superheated steam treatment while being conveyed in an airflow of high-pressure superheated steam. At this time, as for the pressure as a processing condition, it is sufficient if the process is carried out under pressure, but in particular 0.2 to 4
Preferably, the superheated steam treatment is carried out under a pressure of Kg/cm 2 . Further, the atmospheric temperature within the apparatus is preferably 110 to 200°C within the above pressure range. In addition, the treatment time can be set as appropriate since the required flavor, color strength, etc. differ depending on the use of the citrus peel after the treatment of the present invention. When processing is performed, it is preferable to perform the processing for 3 to 15 seconds. If the pressure is outside the above range, i.e. 0.2
If it is less than Kg/ cm2 , the fragrance will be weak and the color will not be clear even if superheated steam treatment is performed at 200℃, and if it exceeds 4Kg/ cm2 , it will be for a short time of 3 seconds or less. Even if it is treated with superheated steam, the aroma is strong, but the result is only a burnt odor and a strong burnt taste. Next, the superheated steam-treated citrus peel is taken out of the apparatus and cooled to about room temperature. The method for cooling the citrus peel in the above cooling step may be any method such as open natural cooling or forced cooling means such as air belt drying. Finally, if necessary, the cooled or intact citrus peel is cut or crushed into a size depending on its use to obtain the desired citrus peel. In order to clarify the effects of the present invention, comparative experimental examples show the results of measuring the flavor amount of citrus peels treated by the method of the present invention and citrus peels before treatment. Experimental Example 100 kg of Chen Pi (10 mesh passes) was subjected to superheated steam treatment at 130°C and 150°C for 5 seconds each under a pressure of 1 kg/cm 2 . The flavoring of the Chinese peel before and after the above treatment was measured by the HSV method (head space paper method) using a gas chromatograph, and the flavor amount of the Chinese peel before the treatment was set as 1, and the flavor amounts are shown in Table 1.
Furthermore, Table 2 shows the change in color of the peel before and after the treatment by measuring the reflected light using a color difference meter.

[Table] Shows the difference in color after processing.
As is clear from Table 1, the total flavor components and the unique component limonene in the skin peel treated by the method of the present invention were increased by more than 10 times, and the aroma It was found that the flavor was strong and had a pleasant overall flavor. Furthermore, as is clear from Table 2, the color of the peel treated according to the present invention was clearer than that before treatment. Although there is no theoretical proof that superheated steam treatment under pressure enhances the flavor of citrus peel, it is likely that
It is thought that the heat and pressure caused by the pressurized and superheated steam treatment destroys the essential oil cells present in the citrus peel, causing a large amount of the essential oil that is expressed as a fragrance to be released from the cells. Conventionally, citrus peels are simply produced by natural drying, such as air drying, so there is inevitably a limit to the amount of flavor they can produce.
In order to impart sufficient flavor to the final product using these, it was necessary to use large amounts. However, by treating citrus peel by the method of the present invention, the characteristic flavor characteristic of citrus peel is enhanced well,
At the same time, it became possible to obtain citrus peels with brighter colors. This allows citrus peel to be used in various products as a flavoring agent, etc., by using only a small amount.
This made it possible to impart the unique flavor of citrus peel. Example Chenpi (10 mesh passes) was cooked using an airflow pressure steamer at a pressure of 1 Kg/cm 2 and a temperature of 150°C.
After processing for a second, it was taken out from the apparatus and allowed to naturally cool in the open to room temperature. The mandarin peel obtained by the above method had a flavor peculiar to mandarin peel that was well enhanced and its color was also brighter than that before treatment.
