Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a frozen lobster capable of keeping excellent freshness over a long period and eatable in a raw state by vacuum-packaging a lobster with a film pack and quickly freezing at an ultra-low temperature below a specific temperature. CONSTITUTION:A lobster is vacuum-packaged with a film pack (preferably PP film) and quickly frozen at an ultra-low temperature, i.e., <=-45 deg.C, preferably -45 to -60 deg.C to obtain the objective lobster.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Technical Field) The present invention relates to a method for producing frozen raw shrimp. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for producing frozen shrimp with heads that maintains excellent freshness and can be eaten raw.

(Background technology) Most shrimp are imported from overseas, and require long-term storage and transportation. For this reason, frozen products are more widely used than ever before. On the other hand, in recent years, the amount of shrimp imported has been increasing, and with the diversification of consumer needs, the types and shapes of shrimp have changed from small boiled headless shrimp to large raw shrimp. It has come into a wide range of varieties, including shrimp with heads.

Therefore, it is important to develop cryopreservation techniques that are tailored to the characteristics of shrimp, such as type, quality, and shape.

Shrimp meat generally has a high pH and also contains a lot of extracts,
Because the connective tissue is weak, the meat tissue easily disintegrates, so it loses freshness quickly. In particular, the necks of shrimp are easily damaged, and even the slightest damage causes them to quickly lose their freshness. Furthermore, when the surface of frozen shrimp dries due to sublimation of water, air oxidation of lipids and color change associated with this are promoted, so the freshness of the shrimp rapidly decreases due to surface dryness.

For this reason, when preserving shrimp in a frozen state, a water-filled freezing block format is generally used to prevent damage and drying out. In this case, the freezing temperature is about 20°C.

However, when freezing and preserving the food by pouring water into it, there is a problem in that water enters the body through the neck and the freshness rapidly decreases. Furthermore, at a freezing temperature of about -20° C., it is difficult to maintain freshness for a long period of time because it is not possible to sufficiently prevent water from evaporating inside the shrimp's body and water from entering from the outside.

On the other hand, a glazing method is sometimes applied in which a thin film of ice is formed on the surface of the food using cold water of about -5 to 0°C. However, even with this glazing method, it has been difficult to sufficiently prevent moisture from entering through the neck and evaporation of internal moisture, and to maintain freshness for a long period of time by eliminating damage to the neck.

For this reason, it has been impossible with conventional technology to preserve shrimp with heads for a long period of time while maintaining high freshness so that it can be eaten raw, even though the demand is increasing.

In the a-distribution method of this invention, instead of freezing the shrimp and then packaging them as in the conventional method, the shrimp are placed in a plastic film bag, vacuum-packed, and then frozen. Vacuum packaging using plastic film is a so-called skin pack. This effectively prevents damage and drying of shrimp during cryopreservation without water injection freezing, prevents oxidation of fat and pigments in shrimp beef, and maintains the freshness of shrimp extremely well. .

As the plastic film, one is used that has excellent printability and physical properties, does not break even at ultra-low temperatures of -45°C or lower, and can maintain its quality during frozen storage. Examples of such films include polypropylene film, polyethylene film, polyvinylidene chloride film, polypropylene/polyester laminate film, Surlyn/vinyl acetate copolymer laminate film, nylon/polyethylene laminate film, nylon/Boleyn laminate film, etc. Polypropylene film is particularly preferred.

Vacuum i! ! The freezing after packaging is done by rapid freezing at an ultra-low temperature of -45°C or lower. Such rapid ultra-low temperature freezing is carried out by appropriately selecting the freezing temperature and freezing time depending on the size, type, and weight of the shrimp, but it is usually done by keeping the shrimp at -45 to -60°C for 6 to 8 hours. It can be done.
