Description

Additive food composition containing Blueberry and Purple sweet potatoes}

The present invention relates to a composition for adding food comprising blueberries and purple sweet potatoes, and more specifically, to a food additive composition made by mixing blueberries and purple sweet potatoes to prepare the composition for food addition, rice cake, confectionery, baking, etc. It can use for the use of the food composition of this.

Recently, the demand for natural health foods with functionalities is rapidly increasing in order to solve the lack of exercise, overwork, stress, disease and constitution due to the change of lifestyle of modern people, and the research and development is actively progressed.

Azaleas, blue berry, are native to North America. Fruit is almost round, 1 ~ 1.5g in one, dark blue, reddish brown, black, with white powder on the outside. Because it has sweet and sour taste, it eats raw and makes jam, juice, canned food. Some of the fruits of the jeongjakku grow in Korea, some of them are fruitful. North Korea's famous “Demuljuju” is made from a kind of blueberry. The Native Americans, formerly Native Americans, used as a major source of nutrients to live in forests and wetlands.The Puritans who came from England in the 17th century were in serious trouble of food shortages when they arrived in the New World, the Americas, and began to build colonies. It has been said that the fruits and syrups of blueberries from Native American Indians helped to survive disease and hunger.

 This led to blueberries being called “life savers” by pioneers in the new continent. Against this backdrop, the US Department of Agriculture began to grow wild species that grew in North America in the early 1900s and grew them into high-quality varieties. It was called "blueberry" because it was good.

Blueberries are in the limelight because they are recognized as healthy fruits. The anthocyanins, vitamins A and C in blueberries are very useful for your health. It is also known to have excellent anticancer activity. During World War II, British fighter pilots loved blueberry jam so much that they consumed it in large quantities every day. Based on the research of blueberry's functionality in Italy and France, the blueberry anthocyanin pigment was found to be effective in improving vision. Since then, many studies from around the world have shown that blueberry's high health effects and various functionalities It became known as the "fruit of the wonder" and later received high attention and attention.

Blueberry's food value is rich in vitamins and minerals, and it has good sugar and acidity. It is reported to be effective for prevention.

As the efficacy of blueberries is known as described above, the sale of tea or beverages using blueberries is increasing.

Patent Publication related to Blueberry Patent Publication No. 2008-21124 "Bulbuberry tea beverage and manufacturing method thereof", Patent Publication No. 2011-133868 "Preparation method of blueberry beverage premix composition having antioxidant function" Patent Publication No. 2009-7521 has been described, such as "sweet and sour collagen blueberry leaching and liquid food compositions and methods for preparing the same."

 These patents are not enough to show a clear purple blueberry alone. Blueberry should be added more than 20% by weight, but the vivid color appears, but because the blueberries are expensive, the economy is inferior, and if the content of blueberries increases, the acidity is strongly felt.

In addition, the above patents have a problem that it is difficult to generalize to a product added to foods and favorite foods as a patent related to drinks or tea.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a composition for adding food by selecting a raw material that can clearly complement the color of blueberries.

In addition, an object of the present invention is to provide a composition for adding foods containing blueberries, which is beneficial to health.

Moreover, an object of this invention is to use for the use of the food composition added to rice cake, confectionery, baking, etc.

In order to achieve the above object, the present inventors, by mixing a variety of natural plants in blueberries and carried out a sensory test (total taste, color, taste, aroma) and finally determined that the purple sweet potato is most similar to the natural color of blueberries blue The purple sweet potato was selected as an alternative to complement the color of the berry.

The purple sweet potato is reported to have an antioxidant, anti-cancer, hepatoprotective activity, etc., as well as an anthocyanin pigment containing a large amount of purple sweet potato, as well as sugar and fiber inherent to sweet potatoes. Anthocyanin pigments of purple sweet potato are acylated with caffeic acid and ferulic asid, so they are more neutral and weakly acidic, and more stable to light than anthocyanin pigments isolated from other foods. Antioxidant activity is also high, and its useful value is high.

As such, purple sweet potato is known to have various effects, but research on its utilization method is insufficient. In general, purple sweet potatoes are a common way of eating or baking.

Accordingly, the inventors have found that the color of the blueberries can be cleared when the purple sweet potatoes are mixed with the blueberries, thereby completing the present invention.

The present invention provides a composition for food addition comprising blueberries and purple sweet potatoes.

In addition, the composition for food addition of the present invention is characterized in that it comprises a ratio of blueberries: purple sweet potato = 1: 3 to 6.

The blueberry is characterized in that at least one selected from the group consisting of powder, juice or extract.

The purple sweet potato is characterized in that at least one selected from the group consisting of a powder, an extract, or a liquid obtained by crushing after grinding.

The process of powdering, juice or extracting blueberries and juice after powdering or pulverizing purple sweet potatoes is carried out by conventional methods known in the art.

In addition, the composition for food addition of the present invention is characterized in that it comprises 0.5 to 25% by weight when added to a variety of food. Less than 0.5% by weight is insignificant in color and taste, and more than 25% by weight is uneconomical.

It is also possible to mix appropriate amounts of health functional additives, such as sweeteners, such as sugar, dietary fiber, and beta glucan, to the food additive composition of this invention.

Method for producing a food additive composition comprising a blueberry and purple sweet potato of the present invention is as follows.

Blueberries and purple sweet potatoes are selected, washed and dehydrated. Dry dehydrated blueberries and purple sweet potatoes. There is no particular limitation on the drying method, but preferably hot-air-dried at 40-60 ° C. to have a water content of 10% or less.

The dried blueberries and purple sweet potatoes are powdered, respectively. The size of the powder is not limited, but is preferably 100 to 250 mesh.

Next, the mixture of blueberry powder: purple sweet potato powder content = 1: 3-6.

Sterilize the mixture of blueberries and purple sweet potatoes as described above. As an example of the sterilization method, it is put into a high temperature sterilizer rotating at 40 to 70 rpm and sterilizes for 40 to 150 seconds at 80 to 100 ° C. with electricity or steam.

The sterilized mixture is packaged.
