In recent years, seasonings that give a rich taste have been widely used for the purpose of full-fledged seasoning of food and drink. From a full-fledged point of view, processed foods manufactured in a short period of time are desired to have a sufficiently matured feeling. As those capable of imparting a general rich taste, protein hydrolysates, animal extracts, yeast extracts, and seasonings obtained by heating reaction of these with sugars and the like are used in various foods.
For example, a seasoning technology having a good roasted meat flavor-like flavor is known, which is characterized in that a sugar extract or an amino acid is added to a yeast extract containing a sulfur-containing compound as necessary and heated (see Patent Document 1). ).
Also known is a seasoning technology having a good meat flavor-like flavor, characterized by heating an aqueous solution containing 5′-nucleotide-containing yeast extract, glutathione yeast extract, monosaccharides, dextrin and salt, etc. (See Patent Document 2).
From the standpoint of ripening feeling, technological development has been progressing to obtain a ripening feeling in a short period of time for the production of the soy sauces that are made by adding mirin, sweet saccharide, and the like.
For example, after making sweet saccharides contained in soy sauce, the method of manufacturing a maple that flows on the wall surface in a state exposed to air (see Patent Document 3), soy sauce is mixed with mirin or sweet saccharide, A method of manufacturing a maple (see Patent Document 4) which is stirred in a predetermined power required for stirring in an open container, prepared by mixing saccharides and / or mirin with soy sauce, and then stored in the container. There is known a manufacturing method (see Patent Document 5) in which aging is performed by forcing air into a bubble to bring it into contact with foamy air.

ところが上述した特許文献1の発明は、熟成感の付与ではなく、良好なローストミートフレーバー様風味を有する調味料を得ることが目的であった。そのため、含硫化合物と糖を70℃〜180℃と高温で加熱反応させる必要があった。また脂肪非存在下という制限も存在した。
また上述した特許文献2も、熟成感の付与ではなく、良好なミートフレーバー様風味を有する調味料を得ることが目的であった。そのため、5‘−ヌクレオチド含有酵母エキス、グルタチオン含有酵母エキス、単糖類、デキストリン、食塩をすべて含有させ加熱反応させる必要があった。
また上述した特許文献3、特許文献4、特許文献5については、いずれもかえしの熟成感を得るのが目的であり、醤油類を使用することに特徴がある。そのため醤油由来の味や風味が望まれる場合は良いが、飲食品の熟成感のみを目的として醤油由来の味や風味が不要である場合には、食品の味や風味のバランスが崩れるため、汎用的な使用は困難であるという課題が存在した。
上記背景下において、本発明は、本来長時間かけて作成しなければならなかった食品の熟成感を簡便かつ汎用的に付与できる調味料を提供することを目的とする。
本発明者らは、上記課題を解決するために鋭意検討を行った結果、本発明を完成した。本発明は以下の各発明を包含する。
(1)醤油類を除くアミノ酸源および/またはペプチド源と糖源を酸化反応させる工程を含む調味料の製造方法において、酸化反応が酸素を含む気体の給気工程および/または撹拌工程を含み、かつ酸化反応条件が20℃以上50℃以下、0.5時間以上48時間以下である事を特徴とする調味料の製造方法。

なお本発明は、これらの各構成の任意の組み合わせや、本発明の表現を組成物、装置などの間で置きかえたものも含む。
本発明によれば、飲食品に対して高力価で良質な熟成感を付与できる調味料を提供することが出来る。
However, the above-described invention of Patent Document 1 was not intended to provide a sense of maturity, but to obtain a seasoning having a good roast meat flavor-like flavor. Therefore, it was necessary to heat-react the sulfur-containing compound and the sugar at a high temperature of 70 to 180 ° C. There was also a limitation of the absence of fat.
The above-mentioned Patent Document 2 is also intended to obtain a seasoning having a good meat flavor-like flavor rather than imparting a sense of maturity.

ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the seasoning which can provide a high ripening feeling with high titer with respect to food-drinks can be provided.

本発明における熟成感とは、風味、呈味を中心とした概念であるコク味に関するものであり、コク味の中でも、まとまり、ひろがり、厚みが強まったものを熟成感があると定義した。ここで本発明においてまとまりとは、味にカドがなく整っており、まろやかな状態を指し、本発明においてひろがりとは、口腔内に風味、呈味がひろがる状態を指し、本発明において厚みとは、味のベースとしてしっかりとした味を感じる状態のことを指す。
本発明におけるアミノ酸源やペプチド源の原料は、飲食品に使用できる窒素源であれば特に限定はなくアミノ酸やペプチドでも目的は達せられる。しかし、酵母エキス、発酵調味料やアミノ酸液などのたん白加水分解物、畜肉エキス、魚介エキス、魚醤などが、工業的な製造を考えると安価で大量に入手しやすい点で好ましい。
ここで酵母エキスとは、パン酵母エキス、ビール酵母エキス、トルラ酵母エキスなど挙げられ、食用に適するものであれば特に制限はない。酵母エキスの抽出法に関しても、自己消化法、酵素分解法、熱水分解法などが挙げられるが、特にこれらに限定されない。
たん白加水分解物も食用に適するものであれば特に制限はないが、特有の風味が弱くアミノ酸源やペプチド源を豊富に含むため発酵調味料やアミノ酸液がより好ましい。本発明では発酵調味料とは、大豆や小麦等のたんぱく質と液体麹、固体麹や分解酵素とを混合し、たん白加水分解させたものを指す。本発明においては、窒素源が醤油類であっても熟成感を付与することは出来るが、醤油特有の味や風味も存在するため、熟成感のみを向上させたいときには好ましくない。
ここで醤油類とは、本醸造、混合醸造、混合のいずかの製法で製造されているものであり、種類としては濃口醤油、淡口醤油、たまり醤油、再仕込み醤油、白醤油の5種類について、日本農林規格(JAS)において定義されている。
本発明において、熟成感以外の異味、異風味を抑える原料として特に以下の発酵調味料が挙げられる。
好ましい発酵調味料の製法例1として、(1)脱脂大豆を含む原料にたん白質を加水分解する能力を有する微生物を接種して固体麹を作成する工程、(2)得られた固体麹に特定濃度の食塩となるように仕込液を加えて諸味を作成し、たん白質を加水分解させる工程を含み、たん白質の加水分解が阻害されない程度の食塩濃度で、5〜45℃で40〜144時間諸味を作用させることを特徴とする調味料の製造法が挙げられる。この製法で作成した発酵調味料をアミノ酸源および/またはペプチド源とすると、異風味も異味の発生もしにくく、特に熟成感の力価も強くバランスも良くなり、非常に好ましい。
好ましい発酵調味料の例2として、グルタミナーゼ活性が増強された麹菌、酵母などの微生物培養物を、たん白分解酵素の存在下、無塩もしくは食塩濃度3%(重量/容量)以下の条件下で小麦グルテン等のたん白質に作用させることを特徴とする調味料の製造法が挙げられる。この製法で作成した発酵調味料をアミノ酸源および/またはペプチド源とすると、異風味も異味の発生もしにくく、特に熟成感の力価も強くバランスも良くなり、非常に好ましい。
好ましい発酵調味料の例3として、脱脂大豆を主原料に、麹菌を用いて固体麹を作成し、調味液を製造する工程において、製麹時にバクテリオシン産生乳酸菌培養液又はその上精を添加して製麹し、次に得られた麹を麹重量の1.8〜3.0倍量(重量)の食塩濃度13〜17重量%の食塩水と混合し諸味を形成した後に、諸味を32〜40℃、11〜19日間加水分解することを特徴とする調味料の製造法が挙げられる。この製法で作成した発酵調味料をアミノ酸源および/またはペプチド源とすると、異風味も異味の発生もしにくく、特に熟成感の力価も強くバランスも良くなり、非常に好ましい。
アミノ酸液は、大豆や小麦などの各種たんぱく質を塩酸などの酸存在下でたんぱく加水分解させたものである。
本発明における糖源は、飲食品に使用できるものであれば特に限定はない。糖源の例としては、スクロース、グルコース、フルクトース、キシロース、異性化糖等が挙げることができ、その中でもスクロース、グルコースを使用するとより熟成感が強まるため好ましい。糖源の使用割合は、目的の調味料が得られる限りは特別の制限はないが、例えば、アミノ酸源やペプチド源1重量部に対して、糖源0.01重量部以上10重量部以下とすることができる。
糖源の割合がこれ以下だと、熟成感の力価が弱い点で好ましくない。
糖源の割合がこれ以上だと、コゲ臭などの異臭(風味)や苦味などの異味が発現する点で好ましくない。
本発明においては、アミノ酸源および/またはペプチド源と糖源を酸化反応させることも重要である。酸化反応に特に限定はないが、例えばアミノ酸源やペプチド源と糖を調理釜などの温度調節可能な装置に投入後、これら原料に対して空気など酸素を含む気体を給気する、もしくは撹拌することにより酸化反応をさせることが出来る。ここで言う給気とは、エアホース等を用いて直接混合液体へ気体を吹き込む方法や、密閉された容器内のヘッドスペースへ気体を吹き込む方法などが挙げられる。気体の給気に関しては、調味料100gあたり空気として給気量10以上300ml/分、給気時間1時間以上48時間以内が好ましく、調味料100gあたり空気として給気量30以上120ml/分、給気時間2時間以上12時間以下がより好ましい。この場合、空気中に酸素が21%含まれるとして計算している。また撹拌により酸化反応を行うとは、例えば、ホモジナイザー、ホモミキサ、ディスパミキサ等により強く撹拌し、気体を調味液中へ抱き込むように撹拌することを言う。攪拌動力に関しては、調味料1kgあたり、0.1W以上200W以下が好ましく、調味料1kgあたり、0.3W以上50W以下がより好ましい。給気や攪拌が弱い場合には、十分な熟成感が得られない。また強すぎる場合にはエグ味等の異味や、異風味の発現が見られ、また一部のコク味のみが強まりバランスが悪くなるため好ましくない。
本発明における酸化反応において、温度と時間の条件は、20℃以上50℃以下、0.5時間以上48時間以下が好ましく、20℃以上50℃以下、3時間以上24時間以下がより好ましい。酸化反応において温度が20℃以下の場合、熟成感の力価が弱いと共に製造に時間を要し工業的にコストのかかる問題が生じる。また酸化反応において温度が60℃以上の場合、コゲ臭(風味)などやエグ味、苦味などの異味が発現するため好ましくない。またアミノ酸源やペプチド源と糖源で酸化反応をする前に、酵母エキス、たんぱく加水分解物などのアミノ酸源、ペプチド源のみを予備加熱することで熟成感がより強まるため好ましい。予備加熱条件は、50℃以上100℃以下、0.1時間以上24時間以下が好ましく、50℃以上90℃以下、0.5時間以上6時間以下がより好ましい。予備加熱条件がこれより低温や短時間の場合、熟成感の力価が弱いと共に製造に時間を要し工業的にコストのかかる問題が生じる。また予備加熱条件がこれより高温や長時間の場合、コゲやムレ臭などの異臭(風味)やエグ味、苦味などの異味が発現するため好ましくない。
本発明において熟成感に寄与する成分は、酸化反応を行うことや、アミノ酸源やペプチド源のみを予備加熱しておくことにより、増加することが見出された。
本発明における、脱色工程、脱臭工程とは、活性炭、イオン交換などの樹脂、アルミナなどと接触処理する方法、水蒸気蒸留や膜処理する方法、またはその他の任意の方法が挙げられる。
本発明で得られる調味料は、つゆ、たれ、ソース、スープ、発酵食品などの飲食品に幅広く用いることができ、特につゆ、たれなどに用いると長時間熟成しなければ付与できないコク味(熟成感)が非常に高品質に再現できる点で好ましい。本発明で得られる調味料の飲食品への添加割合に特に限定は無いが、一般に飲食品に対して調味料が0.01%以上99%以下となるように混合することができる。好ましくは飲食品に対して調味料が0.05%以上20%以下となるように混合することができ、さらに好ましくは飲食品に対して調味料が0.1%以上5%以下となるように混合することができる。調味料の割合が低すぎると効果が得られにくくなり好ましくない。調味料の割合が高すぎても熟成感の点では問題ないが、通常はそれ程添加しなくても十分な効果が得られる。
また本発明では、飲食品に使用する熟成感付与剤も得ることが出来る。ここで熟成感付与剤の形態に特に限定はないが、粉末、液体、ペースト等が保存性と使いやすさの点で好ましい。
The aging feeling in the present invention relates to the rich taste, which is a concept centered on flavor and taste, and among the rich tastes, those that are united, spread, and thickened are defined as having an aging feeling. Here, in the present invention, the unity refers to a state in which the taste is not caddy and is mellow and refers to a mellow state.In the present invention, the term spread refers to the state in which the flavor and taste spread in the oral cavity. , Refers to the state of feeling a firm taste as a base of taste.
The raw material of the amino acid source or peptide source in the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it is a nitrogen source that can be used in food and drink, and the object can be achieved even with amino acids and peptides. However, yeast hydrolysates, protein hydrolysates such as fermented seasonings and amino acid solutions, livestock meat extracts, seafood extracts, fish sauces and the like are preferred from the viewpoint of being inexpensive and readily available in large quantities.
Here, the yeast extract includes baker's yeast extract, beer yeast extract, Torula yeast extract and the like, and is not particularly limited as long as it is suitable for food. Examples of the yeast extract extraction method include, but are not limited to, an autolysis method, an enzymatic decomposition method, and a hydrothermal decomposition method.
The protein hydrolyzate is not particularly limited as long as it is edible, but a fermented seasoning or an amino acid solution is more preferable because it has a unique flavor and is rich in amino acid sources and peptide sources. In the present invention, the fermented seasoning refers to a protein hydrolyzed by mixing protein such as soybean or wheat and liquid koji, solid koji, or decomposing enzyme. In the present invention, a ripening feeling can be imparted even if the nitrogen source is soy sauce, but there is also a taste and flavor peculiar to soy sauce, which is not preferable when it is desired to improve only the aging feeling.
Here, soy sauce is produced by any of the following methods: main brewing, mixed brewing, and mixing. There are five types of soy sauce, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, tamari soy sauce, re-prepared soy sauce, and white soy sauce. Is defined in the Japanese Agricultural Standards (JAS).
In the present invention, the following fermented seasonings are particularly mentioned as raw materials that suppress off-taste and off-flavor other than aging.
As production example 1 of a preferable fermented seasoning, (1) a step of inoculating a raw material containing defatted soybeans with a microorganism having an ability to hydrolyze protein, and producing a solid koji, (2) specific to the obtained solid koji It includes a step of adding mash to make the concentration of sodium chloride and hydrolyzing the protein, and at a salt concentration that does not inhibit the hydrolysis of the protein at 5-45 ° C. for 40-144 hours A method for producing a seasoning characterized by allowing moromi to act. When the fermented seasoning prepared by this production method is used as an amino acid source and / or a peptide source, it is difficult to generate a different flavor or a different taste, and particularly, it has a strong aging potency and good balance, which is very preferable.
As a preferred fermented seasoning example 2, microbial cultures such as koji molds and yeasts with enhanced glutaminase activity are used in the presence of a protein-degrading enzyme in the absence of salt or a salt concentration of 3% (weight / volume) or less. Examples include a method for producing a seasoning characterized by acting on proteins such as wheat gluten. When the fermented seasoning prepared by this production method is used as an amino acid source and / or a peptide source, it is difficult to generate a different flavor or a different taste, and particularly, it has a strong aging potency and good balance, which is very preferable.
As an example 3 of a preferable fermented seasoning, a bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacterium culture solution or its essence is added at the time of koji making in a step of producing a solid koji using defatted soybean as a main raw material and koji mold. Next, the koji obtained was mixed with 1.8 to 3.0 times (by weight) the salt weight of a salt concentration of 13 to 17% by weight of salt solution to form moromi, and then moromi was added to 32. The manufacturing method of the seasoning characterized by hydrolyzing -40 degreeC and 11-19 days is mentioned. When the fermented seasoning prepared by this production method is used as an amino acid source and / or a peptide source, it is difficult to generate a different flavor or a different taste, and particularly, it has a strong aging potency and good balance, which is very preferable.
The amino acid solution is obtained by hydrolyzing various proteins such as soybean and wheat in the presence of an acid such as hydrochloric acid.
If the sugar source in this invention can be used for food-drinks, there will be no limitation in particular. Examples of the sugar source include sucrose, glucose, fructose, xylose, isomerized sugar, etc. Among them, use of sucrose and glucose is preferable because the ripening feeling becomes stronger. The use ratio of the sugar source is not particularly limited as long as the target seasoning is obtained. For example, the sugar source is 0.01 parts by weight or more and 10 parts by weight or less with respect to 1 part by weight of the amino acid source or peptide source. can do.
If the ratio of the sugar source is less than this, it is not preferable in that the ripening sensation is weak.
If the ratio of the sugar source is more than this, it is not preferable from the viewpoint that an off-flavor (flavor) such as burnt odor or an off-flavor such as bitterness is expressed.
In the present invention, it is also important to oxidize an amino acid source and / or a peptide source with a sugar source. The oxidation reaction is not particularly limited. For example, after the amino acid source, the peptide source, and the sugar are put into a temperature-controllable device such as a cooking pot, a gas containing oxygen such as air is supplied to the raw materials or stirred. Thus, an oxidation reaction can be performed. Examples of the air supply here include a method of directly blowing a gas into a mixed liquid using an air hose or the like, and a method of blowing a gas into a head space in a sealed container. Regarding gas supply, air supply amount of 10 to 300 ml / min as air per 100 g of seasoning and air supply time of 1 hour to 48 hours are preferable, and air supply amount of 30 to 120 ml / min as air per 100 g of seasoning is supplied. More preferably, the air time is 2 hours or more and 12 hours or less. In this case, calculation is performed assuming that 21% of oxygen is contained in the air. The term “oxidation reaction by stirring” refers to stirring vigorously with, for example, a homogenizer, a homomixer, a disperser mixer or the like so as to embed the gas in the seasoning liquid. About stirring power, 0.1 W or more and 200 W or less are preferable per 1 kg of seasonings, and 0.3 W or more and 50 W or less are more preferable per 1 kg of seasonings. When the air supply and stirring are weak, a sufficient aging feeling cannot be obtained. On the other hand, if it is too strong, it is not preferable because it has an unusual taste such as an egg taste and an unusual flavor, and only a part of the rich taste becomes stronger and the balance becomes worse.
In the oxidation reaction of the present invention, the temperature and time conditions are preferably 20 ° C. or higher and 50 ° C. or lower and 0.5 hour or longer and 48 hours or shorter, more preferably 20 ° C. or higher and 50 ° C. or lower, and 3 hours or longer and 24 hours or shorter. In the oxidation reaction, when the temperature is 20 ° C. or lower, the aging feeling is weak and the production takes time, resulting in an industrially costly problem. In addition, when the temperature is 60 ° C. or higher in the oxidation reaction, unpleasant tastes such as burnt odor (flavor), egg taste, and bitterness are manifested. In addition, it is preferable to preheat only an amino acid source such as a yeast extract or a protein hydrolyzate or a peptide source before the oxidation reaction with an amino acid source or a peptide source and a sugar source, since the aging feeling becomes stronger. Preheating conditions are preferably 50 ° C. or higher and 100 ° C. or lower, 0.1 hour or longer and 24 hours or shorter, more preferably 50 ° C. or higher and 90 ° C. or lower, and 0.5 hours or longer and 6 hours or shorter. When the preheating conditions are lower than this or for a short time, there is a problem that the titer of the aging feeling is weak and the production takes time and is costly industrially. In addition, when the preheating conditions are higher than this or for a long time, it is not preferable because a strange odor (flavor) such as burnt or stuffy odor, an astringent taste such as an egg taste or a bitter taste appears.
In the present invention, it has been found that the components contributing to the ripening feeling increase by performing an oxidation reaction or by preheating only the amino acid source and the peptide source.
In the present invention, examples of the decolorization step and deodorization step include a method of contact treatment with activated carbon, a resin such as ion exchange, alumina, or the like, a method of steam distillation or membrane treatment, or any other method.
The seasonings obtained in the present invention can be widely used in foods and drinks such as soup, sauce, sauce, soup, fermented food, etc. Especially, when used in soy sauce, sauce, etc., the richness that cannot be imparted unless it is aged for a long time (aging) Is preferable in that it can be reproduced with very high quality. Although there is no limitation in particular in the addition ratio to the food / beverage products of the seasoning obtained by this invention, Generally it can mix so that a seasoning may be 0.01% or more and 99% or less with respect to food / beverage products. Preferably, it can be mixed so that the seasoning is 0.05% or more and 20% or less with respect to the food or drink, and more preferably the seasoning is 0.1% or more and 5% or less with respect to the food or drink. Can be mixed. If the proportion of the seasoning is too low, it is difficult to obtain the effect, which is not preferable. Even if the proportion of the seasoning is too high, there is no problem in terms of aging, but usually sufficient effects can be obtained even if not so much added.
Moreover, in this invention, the ripening feeling imparting agent used for food-drinks can also be obtained. Here, the form of the ripening sensation imparting agent is not particularly limited, but powders, liquids, pastes and the like are preferable in terms of storage stability and ease of use.
