Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a method for modification treatment of meat quality, capable of preparing meat having a soft meat quality and enriched in juice even after heat cooking. CONSTITUTION:This method for modification treatment of meat is carried out by impregnating meat with a composition containing fats and oils, an ester between a monoglyceride and a polycarboxylic acid and/or an ester between a diglyceride and a polycarboxylic acid. The amount of the composition used for impregnation is controlled so that 0.05 to 10wt.% ester may be contained in the meat. As other forms of the composition, an emulsified composition containing fats and oils, water, an ester between a monoglyceride and a polycarboxylic acid and/or an ester between a diglyceride and a polycarboxylic acid and an aqueous composition containing an ester between a monoglyceride and a polycarboxylic acid and/or another ester between a diglyceride and a polycarboxylic acid respectively dispersed in water are exemplified.

However, regardless of the cooking method such as baking, frying or frying, meat is It is desirable that it has moderate tenderness and can be eaten in a state (juicy state) rich in gravy, which is an umami ingredient. In particular, when cooking with a relatively large lump of meat (meat piece) that is not a processed product such as steak or fried food, this softness and juiciness are important factors for eating meat deliciously. However, in general, the above-mentioned meat has a property of being tightly tightened by cooking, and the meat juice tends to flow out and be lost. Therefore, improvement so that the taste of meat can be more fully enjoyed is desired.

According to the study of the present inventor, it has been found that the composition containing the above-mentioned specific ester is particularly effective for softening meat and the like. The reason for this is not clear, but especially in meat of livestock and poultry, hard proteins (collagen) such as tendons are contained in a relatively large amount, and when the meat is cooked, it contracts and agglomerates, resulting in tightening of the meat. It is thought to become hard. By injecting the composition into meat according to the treatment method of the present invention, it is considered that the ester component contained therein suppresses the above-mentioned contraction of protein, and as a result, soft meat is obtained.

[Evaluation as meat and meat products] Various meat dishes obtained as described above were subjected to a sensory evaluation by a panel of 20 people. The evaluation compares the "softness" and "juiciness" of each meat dish obtained in the example and the comparative example, and the example is "obviously softer (or juicy)" than the comparative example. Slightly soft (or juicy)
And it went in three stages of "no change". In addition, the physical properties of the obtained various meat dishes were measured to evaluate the tenderness of the meat. "Softness" was expressed as a shear stress value by meat shear (manufactured by Warner Bratzler). The smaller the value, the softer the meat. The results are shown in Table 1 below.
