Teig zu stückigen Lebensmitteln, Anwendung des Verfahrens sowie Extrudate mit offener Porung Beschreibung:Dough for chunky foods, application of the process and extrudates with open pores Description:
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Kochextrusion von expandierendem Teig zu stückigen Lebensmitteln wie Snacks, Breakfast Cereals, Müslikomponenten, porösen Frucht-, Gemüse- oder Fleischextrudaten für Instant-Kindernahrung. Gegenstand der Erfindung ist auch die Anwendung eines solchen Verfahrens auf andersartige Produkte. Die Erfindung betrifft auch eine Vorrichtung zum Extrudieren von expandierendem Teig zu stückigen Lebensmitteln und hat schließlich auch Extrudate mit offener Porung zum Gegenstand.The invention relates to a process for cooking extrusion of expanding dough into chunky foods such as snacks, breakfast cereals, muesli components, porous fruit, vegetable or meat extrudates for instant baby food. The invention also relates to the application of such a method to other types of products. The invention also relates to a device for extruding expanding dough into chunky foods and finally also relates to extrudates with open pores.
Es ist bekannt, daß erhitzter unter Druck stehender Teig a einer Düse durch Verdampfen der in ihm enthaltenen Flüssigkeit infolge der Druckdifferenz expandiert. Bekanntlich entzieht die Verdampfung dem Teig Wärme und Feuchte. Beides bewirkt, daß sich die Viskosität des Teige erhöht, er sich verfestigt und die bei der Expansion gewonnene poröse Struktur beibehält.It is known that heated pressurized dough a of a nozzle expands by evaporating the liquid contained in it due to the pressure difference. As is well known, evaporation removes heat and moisture from the dough. Both have the effect of increasing the viscosity of the dough, solidifying it and maintaining the porous structure obtained during the expansion.
üblicherweise werden solche extrudierten Produkte entweder direkt an der Düse geschnitten oder aber als stränge abgezogen, gegebenenfalls weiterbehandelt und dann mit geeigneten Schneidmaschinen in diesem Fall meist in grössere Stücke geschnitten.Usually, such extruded products are either cut directly at the nozzle or drawn off as strands, optionally further processed and then usually cut into larger pieces in this case using suitable cutting machines.
Bekannt ist dies beispielsweise aus "Breaktfast Cereals", American Association of Cereal Chemists, Inc., St. Paul, Minnesota (USA), Extrusion and Extruders, Seite 179.This is known, for example, from "Breaktfast Cereals", American Association of Cereal Chemists, Inc., St. Paul, Minnesota (USA), Extrusion and Extruders, page 179.
Unbedingte Voraussetzung hierfür war jedoch das Abziehen der Stränge von der Düse und ein aktives zuführen einer d Extruder nachgeschalteten Schneidmaschine. Der Einsatzbereich ist aber auf gesüsste Cerealien beschränkt, da bekannterweise Zuckerzusatz zur Extrusionsmischung die Elastizität des expandierten Produktes erhöht bzw. sein Erstarren hinauszögert. Dies ist im Prinzip auch durch erhöhte Feuchtigkeit der Extrusionsmischung zu erreichen, wodurch jedoch eine Fülle von möglichen Texturvarianten nicht herstellbar sind.The unconditional prerequisite for this, however, was the pulling of the strands from the nozzle and the active feeding of a cutting machine downstream of the extruder. The area of application is limited to sweetened cereals, as is known to add sugar to the extrusion mixture The elasticity of the expanded product increases or its solidification is delayed. In principle, this can also be achieved by increasing the moisture content of the extrusion mixture, but this means that an abundance of possible texture variants cannot be produced.
Andererseits findet bei an der Düse geschnittenen Produkten der erhebliche Teil der Teigexpansion erst nach dem der Schnitt stattgefunden hat, statt, wodurch sich abgerundete Formen und geschlossene Oberflächen ausbilden, analog wie bei expandierendem, in der Alltagssprache "gehendem" Hefegebäck oder Brotteig.On the other hand, in the case of products cut at the nozzle, the considerable part of the dough expansion only takes place after the cut has taken place, as a result of which rounded shapes and closed surfaces are formed, analogously to expanding yeast biscuits or bread dough "going" in everyday language.
Diese Eigenschaft ist bei vielen Produkten aber erwünscht: beispielsweise erhält man auf diese Weise aus kreisrunden Düsenbohrungen von zylindrisch abgeschnittenen Teigstücken infolge der Expansion Produkte mit fast kugelförmiger Gestalt.However, this property is desirable for many products: for example, products with an almost spherical shape are obtained from circular nozzle bores of cylindrically cut pieces of dough as a result of the expansion.
Die heute vielfältig verwendeten Extrudate im Bereich Snacks, Breakfast Cereals, Müslikomponenten, poröse Frucht-, Gemüse- oder Fleischextrudate für Instant-Kindernahrung dokumentieren mit ihren rundlichen ^ Formen und geschlossener Oberfläche dieses Verhalten bei der Herstellung.The extrudates used widely in the area of snacks, breakfast cereals, muesli components, porous fruit, vegetable or meat extrudates for instant baby food document this behavior with their rounded shapes and closed surface during production.
Demgegenüber liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, von diesen durch die herkömmliche Herstellungsweise 0 beschränkten Formen abzugehen und neue Formen mit natürlichem Aussehen vorzusehen. Gleichzeitig soll eine offene sichtbare Porung des Extrudats geschaffen werden, was zu besseren Rehydratationseigenschaften bei Instant-Produkten führen würde. 5 Erreicht wird dies erfindungsge äß bei einem Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art dadurch, daß dem Extrusionsbereich ein Expansionsbereich nachgeschaltet wird, an dessen Ende das Extrudat abgeschnitten wird.In contrast, the object of the invention is to depart from these shapes limited by the conventional production method and to provide new shapes with a natural appearance. At the same time, an open, visible pore of the extrudate is to be created, which would lead to better rehydration properties in instant products. 5 This is achieved according to the invention in a method of the type mentioned at the outset in that the extrusion area is followed by an expansion area, at the end of which the extrudate is cut off.
Bei der Maßnahme nach der Erfindung wird der Produktaustritt und die durch die Expansion hervorgerufene Längsbeschleunigung des Produktstranges ausgenutzt, um wesentlich einfacher und effizienter das Ziel: offene Poren und eine Ausformung zu erreichen. Die Beschränkungen des Standes der Technik, auch die Nachteile, daß der Strang, wenn er sich zu weit verfestigt hat, beim Schneidvorgang bröckelt, gelten durch die Maßnahme nach der Erfindung als überwunden. Auch ist der Einsatzbereich auf gesüsste Cerealien nicht mehr begrenzt.In the measure according to the invention, the product leakage and the longitudinal acceleration of the product strand caused by the expansion are used in order to achieve the goal much easier and more efficiently: to achieve open pores and a shape. The limitations of the prior art, as well as the disadvantages that the strand, if it has solidified too much, crumbles during the cutting process, are overcome by the measure according to the invention. The area of application is no longer limited to sweetened cereals.
Eine weitere Folge der Maßnahme nach der Erfindung ist, daß die Formgebung im Expansionsbereich anders als dies bisher der Fall war, bewusst, d.h. positiv beeinflußt werden kann. Es handelt sich um eine Steuerung auch der Expansionsformen und des Expansionsablaufs.Another consequence of the measure according to the invention is that the shape in the expansion area is different from what was previously the case, i.e. can be influenced positively. It is also a control of the forms of expansion and the expansion process.
Durch die Maßnahme nach der- Erfindung wird es möglich, vorzugsweise das Verhältnis der Querschnitte vonThe measure according to the invention makes it possible, preferably the ratio of the cross sections of
Expansionsbereich zu Düsenbereich gemäß der erwünschten Expansion zu vergrδssern bzw. allgemein gesagt zu verändern.To enlarge the expansion area to the nozzle area according to the desired expansion or to change it generally speaking.
Hierzu kann die Längen- und Oberflächenbeschaffenheit der Expansionskammer bzw. des Expansionskanals so gewählt werden, daß der Teig vor dem Schneiden bereits ausreichend verfestigt ist, andererseits an der Innenwand der Kammer sich eine nicht so große Reibung des Teigs einstellt. Die Expansionskammer kann mit einem die Produktoberfläche schonenden material wie PTFE ausgekleidet oder beschichtet sein.For this purpose, the length and surface properties of the expansion chamber or the expansion channel can be chosen so that the dough is sufficiently solidified before cutting, on the other hand, the dough does not rub so much on the inner wall of the chamber. The expansion chamber can be lined or coated with a material such as PTFE that is gentle on the product surface.
Andererseits ist es auch möglich, ein Gleitmittel hierzu zwischen Außenumfang des Extrudats und Kammer zwischenzuschalten. Das Gleitmittel, bei dem es sich um Pflanzenöl, um nur ein Beispiel zu nennen, handeln kann, kann auch je nach den gewünschten Verhältnissen weiter vorne im Düsenkopf aufgegeben werden.On the other hand, it is also possible to interpose a lubricant between the outer periphery of the extrudate and the chamber. The lubricant, which can be vegetable oil, to name just one example, can also be added further ahead in the nozzle head, depending on the desired conditions.
Durch das Schneiden im bereits expandierten Zustand werden die Poren des Extrudats geöffnet und neuartige Produkte ähnlich geschnittenem Brot entstehen.By cutting in the already expanded state, the pores of the extrudate are opened and novel products similar to cut bread are created.
Die der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Basismaßnahme, daß nämlich dem Extrusionsbereich ein Expansionsbereich nachgeschaltet wird, an dessen Ende das Extrudat abgeschnitten wird, läßt sich auch anwenden auf geschäumte poröse, durch Extrudieren aus Biopolymeren oder Kunststoffen hergestellte Produkte, die dann ebenfalls zu einer offenen Zellstruktur gelangen.The basic measure on which the invention is based, namely that an expansion area is connected downstream of the extrusion area, at the end of which the extrudate is cut off, can also be applied to foamed porous products produced by extrusion from biopolymers or plastics, which then also result in an open cell structure.
Gegenstand der Erfindung ist auch eine Vorrichtung zum Extrudieren von expandierendem Teig zu stückigen Lebensmitteln wie Snacks, Breakfast Cereals, Müslikomponenten, porösen Frucht-,Gemüse- oder Fleischextrudaten für Instant-Kindernahrung mit einem Kochextruder mit Extruderdüse, die sich auszeichnet durch eine in Fließrichtung des Teigs/Extrudats hinter dem Düsenkopf (1) angeordnete Expansionskammer (3), an deren Austrittsende die Schneidklinge (6) einer Schneidvorrichtung vorbeigeführt ist. Hergestellt werden Extrudate mit offener Porung durch Kochextrudieren bei vorzugsweise 130-160°C, nach Expandieren einer Getreidemischung in einem umschlossenen Raum und anschließendem Abschneiden.The invention also relates to a device for extruding expanding dough into chunky foods such as snacks, breakfast cereals, muesli components, porous fruit, vegetable or meat extrudates for instant baby food using a cooking extruder with an extruder nozzle, which is distinguished by a direction of flow of the dough / Extrudate expansion chamber (3) arranged behind the die head (1), at the outlet end of which the cutting blade (6) of a cutting device is guided. Extrudates with open pores are produced by extrusion-cooking at preferably 130-160 ° C., after expanding a mixture of cereals in an enclosed space and then cutting them off.
Die Erfindung soll nun mit Bezug auf die beiliegenden Zeichnungen näher erläutert werden, in denen Figur 1 eine übliche Anordnung für ein an der Düse geschnittenes Produkt; die Figuren 2 und 3 eine erfindungsgemäß ausgebildeteThe invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which FIG. 1 shows a conventional arrangement for a product cut at the nozzle; Figures 2 and 3 are designed according to the invention
Anordnung zeigen.Show arrangement.
Figur 1 zeigt die übliche Anordnung für an der Düse geschnittene Produkte. Die üblicherweise rotierende Schneidvorrichtung 5 besitzt eine oder mehrere Schneidklingen 6, welche an der Dusenoffnung vorbeistreicht bzw. vorbeistreichen. Die Düsenöffnung selbst dient hierbei gleichzeitig als Schneidkante 4.Figure 1 shows the usual arrangement for products cut at the nozzle. The usually rotating cutting device 5 has one or more cutting blades 6 which sweep past or pass the nozzle opening. The nozzle opening itself also serves as the cutting edge 4.
Beim Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß der Erfindung, wie in Fig. 2 und 3 gezeigt, wird hinter der Extruderdüse eine Kammer angeordnet, in welcher vor dem Schneiden die Expansion des Teiges stattfindet. Man sieht, daß vor der Dusenoffnung 2 eine Expansionskammer 3 vorgesehen ist, welche im Querschnitt größer als der Düsenquerschnitt ausgestaltet wird. Das Verhältnis der beiden Querschnitte richtet sich nach der zu erwartenden oder erwünschten Expansion.In the embodiment according to the invention, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, a chamber is arranged behind the extruder nozzle, in which the expansion of the dough takes place before cutting. It can be seen that an expansion chamber 3 is provided in front of the nozzle opening 2, which is made larger in cross section than the nozzle cross section. The ratio of the two cross sections depends on the expected or desired expansion.
Die geometrische Form des Querschnitts der Expansionskammer kann der der Düsenöffnung entsprechen (z.B. kreisförmige Düsenöffnung und kreisförmige Expansionskammer) oder aber sich von dieser unterscheiden (z.B. kreisförmige Düsenöffnung und quadratischer Querschnitt der Expansionskammer). Hierdurch ist es möglich, gezielt die Form des Extrudats während der Expansion zu beeinflussen. Die Länge des Kanals wird - in Abhängigkeit von der Beschaffenheit des Teiges - so gewählt, daß einerseits vor dem Schneiden eine genügende Verfestigung des expandierten Teiges eingetreten ist, andererseits die Reibung des Teiges an der Innenwand der Kammer nicht zu groß wird und ein Aufreißen des Extrudats bewirkt, oder die Expansion hemmt. Die Länge der Kammer wird auch dadurch beschränkt, daß eine zu starke Verfestigung des Teiges dessen Elastizität herabsetzt und das Schnittergebnis, z.B. in Form von Bröseln oder Bruch, beeinträchtigt.The geometric shape of the cross section of the expansion chamber can correspond to that of the nozzle opening (for example circular nozzle opening and circular expansion chamber) or can differ from this (for example circular nozzle opening and square cross section of the expansion chamber). This makes it possible to target the Affect the shape of the extrudate during expansion. The length of the channel - depending on the nature of the dough - is chosen so that, on the one hand, sufficient strengthening of the expanded dough has occurred before cutting, on the other hand, the friction of the dough on the inner wall of the chamber does not become too great and the extrudate tears open causes, or inhibits expansion. The length of the chamber is also limited by the fact that too much solidification of the dough reduces its elasticity and impairs the cutting result, for example in the form of crumbs or breakage.
Bei der Extrusion von Cerealien wird man bei Kammerlängen von etwa 15 bis 100 mm gute Ergebnisse erhalten.When extruding cereals, good results are obtained with chamber lengths of approximately 15 to 100 mm.
Die Länge der Kammer beeinflußt die Reibung des Teiges an der Wandung ebenso wie deren Querschnitt im Verhältnis zur Expansion.The length of the chamber affects the friction of the dough against the wall as well as its cross-section in relation to the expansion.
Durch die Wahl geeigneter Werkstoffe mit geringer Reibung, z.B. PTFE oder durch Beschichtung kann die Reibung- in der Kammer herabgesetzt werden, sofern dies gewünscht wird.By choosing suitable materials with low friction, e.g. PTFE or coating can reduce the friction in the chamber if desired.
Eine Beeinflussung der Reibung oder der Ausformung oder der Oberflächengüte des Extrudats ist auch durch sich vergrössernde oder verkleinernde Querschnitte der Kammer möglich.It is also possible to influence the friction or the shape or the surface quality of the extrudate by enlarging or reducing cross sections of the chamber.
Die Expansionskammer wird vorzugsweise so ausgebildet, daß diese am Ausgang eine Schneidkante 4 ausbildet, an welcher die Schneidklinge 6 vorbeistreicht.The expansion chamber is preferably designed such that it forms a cutting edge 4 at the exit, against which the cutting blade 6 passes.
