Abstract
A process for coloring treated and untreated green olives and their products by the use of water solutions of natural Chlorophyll, Chlorophyllin and Copper Chlorophyllin salts. A procedure for the coloring of green treated and untreated whole olives in, olives without the pit and olive slices by the use of alkaline solution of natural Chlorophyll, Chlorophyllin and Copper Chlorophyllin salts so as to have a product which is a uniformed bright green in color, enriched with Chlorophylls which were removed from the natural olives during the stages of their treatment, fermentation and storage in the tanks. It is a stable product, absolutely natural which one can handle, after this new process, as all the other olives up until now, in the global market.
Description
- The present invention concerns the procedure for coloring green olives, treated or un-treated that are whole olives, pitted and olive pieces, using alkaline water solutions of Chlorophyll, Chlorophyllin and Copper Chlorophyllin salts.
- It is known that the natural extracts of Chlorophyll, Chlorophyllin and Copper Chlorophyllin salts are used for the manufacture of sweets, ice-creams and conserved vegetables without any dangerous impact on health and are allowed to be used by the European Union (directive 20008/128EK 22 Dec. 2008) and by the Federal Drugs and Foods Administration service of the United States of America (Federal Register Final Rule 67 FR 35429—May 20, 2002), producing a green bright color.
- The treated and un-treated green olives, during the treatment to remove the bitter taste, to be fermented in a solution of sodium chloride and during the preservation in tank with brine in presence of organic acids that adjust the PH, they lose most of the Chlorophyll amount they contained and acquire a yellow, light yellow-green and sometimes a yellow-brown color.
- Through this method the whole olives, the pitted olives, the stuffed olives and the olive bits acquire a uniformed green natural color.
- The purpose of this invention is to attach a uniformed bright green color to treated and un-treated, whole olives, pitted olives, olive rounds, in quarters and halves. This purpose was achieved by their sinking in alkaline environment with water solution of natural Chlorophyll, Chlorophyllin and Copper Chlorophyllin salts.
- In the process of the present invention the whole, the pitted olives or olive pieces are sunk, according to each case, into a water solution which contains Sodium Hydroxide in density 0.01 -3.5%, depending on the maturity and the fermentation degree of the olives, adding natural Chlorophyll, Chlorophyllin and Copper Chlorophyllin salts in the density of 0.005-0.9%. They remain for 6-16 hours, washed with water and then new water is added which contains Citric acid 0.1-0.3% and Ascorbic acid 0.1-0.15%. They remain there until the remaining of Sodium Hydroxide is neutralized. The last procedure is repeated until the PH of the system is balanced in a number less than 4.6.
- The product is ready to be preserved into glass, plastic or tinplated containers with filling fluid of Sodium Chloride ranging from 0.0-7% depending on the consumers' wish and adjusting of the filling fluid PH with organic acids in a number less than 4.6. The firmly closed containers are led to the heating treatment or neutral gas, as any other kind of packing according to the good manufacturing process.
- The product, the whole olives, pitted olives or olive pieces can be preserved into containers not firmly closed, adding brine containing salt more than 4% in the presence of organic acids of Citric, Ascorbic and Lactic acid so as to obtain a PH less than 4.5. The presence of the preservative Sorbate Potassium within the permitted limits by the law up to 0.1% is wanted.
- The examples following below are given with a view to the further explanation of the present invention. It must be taken into consideration that the parts mentioned in the following examples mean weight parts and the maturity of the raw material is in the middle of the harvest period.
- Five hundred grams of whole treated olives mid harvest period, undergone full fermentation, remaining sugars less than 0.04%, are set into 480 grams of water containing 15 grams of Sodium Hydroxide and 0.9 grams of Copper Chlorophyllin remain for 7-12 hours depending on the environment temperature. The solution is removed and the olives are washed for their clearing from the alkaline residues and the redundant Chlorophyllin. The olives are set into 520 grams of water which holds 0.6 grams of Ascorbic acid and 1 gram of Citric acid. They remain there until the PH is balanced in a number less than 4.6. If this is not achieved, the solution is removed and a new identical solution is used. A third effort may be needed. It depends on the way the olives are washed. The ready olives are preserved in a jar with filling fluid of Sodium Chloride solution 3% and Citric acid for the adjusting of the PH solution in a number less than 4.2. The jar, then, is pasteurized in the temperature of 75° C. for 8-25 minutes and then immediately it is cooled in ambient temperature.
- Four hundred and twenty grams of treated olives without a pit, mid period harvested and undergone a full fermentation, remaining sugars less than 0.04%, are set in 480 grams of water holding 13 grams of Sodium Hydroxide and 0.9 grams of Copper Chlorophyllin. They remain there for 7-10 hours, depending on the ambient temperature. Then, the solution is removed and the olives are washed for the clearing from the alkaline residues and the redundant Chlorophyllin. They are set in 520 grams of water which holds 0.6 grams of Ascorbic acid and 1 gram of Citric acid. They remain there until the PH is balanced in a number less than 4.6. If this is not achieved, the solution is removed and a new identical solution is used. A third effort may be needed. It depends on the way the olives are washed. The ready olives are set in 520 grams of brine which holds 10% Sodium Chloride, 0.1% Sorbate Potassium and 0.8% Lactic acid, in a jar with screw top.
