In a conventional water-in-oil type fat / oil composition (margarine, fat spread, etc.), a raw material is dispersed or dissolved in an oil phase and an aqueous phase, and the oil phase and the aqueous phase are separately mixed and then mixed, and a preliminary emulsification step It was manufactured through a heating (sterilization) process, a cooling process, a kneading process, and the like.

At this time, as the oil phase and the aqueous phase were mixed and the emulsification progressed, the particle size of the aqueous phase became finer, and it became difficult to feel the flavor derived from the raw materials blended in the aqueous phase during eating.

In addition, since all the raw materials were mixed and then subjected to a heating (sterilization) step, the flavor was dissipated or deteriorated by the heating.

Accordingly, the present inventors have studied various measures for improving the structure, texture, and flavor of the water-in-oil type oil / fat composition in order to solve the above-mentioned problems. After the phase is prepared and mixed, a predetermined volume of gas is mixed, and then flavor materials are mixed to make the structure (easy to crawl and apply), physical properties (melt and mouthfeel), flavor (flavor) It was found that can be improved.

In the method for producing a water-in-oil type oil / fat composition of the present invention, an oil phase and an aqueous phase are first emulsified and / or dispersed (preliminarily emulsified) in accordance with a normal production method or a conventional production method of margarine or cream. A water-in-oil mixture (base margarine) or an oil-in-water mixture (base cream) is prepared.

At this time, in the case of an oil-in-water mixture, a phase inversion step is required during the production of the water-in-oil type oil and fat composition, but in the case of a water-in-oil mixture, the phase inversion step is unnecessary. Therefore, a water-in-oil mixture is desirable.

When preparing the above mixture (water-in-oil mixture, oil-in-water mixture), if necessary, a flavor material, a physical property improver, etc. are mixed simultaneously with the oil phase and water phase as auxiliary materials. It may be blended in an oil phase or an aqueous phase.

However, as will be described later, in the present invention, by preparing the mixture and then mixing the gas and further blending the flavor material, it is possible to effectively impart or enhance a good flavor.

In the production method of the present invention, as described above, an oil phase and an aqueous phase are emulsified or dispersed, or a mixture prepared by emulsifying and dispersing (the above-mentioned water-in-oil mixture or oil-in-water mixture). ) Is effectively imparted and strengthened by mixing gas and flavor materials. Therefore, when preparing an oil phase and an aqueous phase, it is possible to prepare an oil phase and an aqueous phase with predetermined raw materials and blending, such as no need to add and mix flavor materials.

In the above, as auxiliary ingredients that can be mixed as necessary, dairy products (cream, cream cheese, fresh cheese (mascarpone, fromage blanc, ricotta, etc.), butter, milk, etc.), fruit juice, fruit juice sauce, vegetable juice, vegetable juice Examples include sauces, seafood sauces, meat sauces, soup stock, seasonings, chocolate, custard cream, nut paste, and other flavor materials.

In the method for producing a water-in-oil oil / fat composition of the present invention, the mixture prepared as described above (the above-mentioned water-in-oil mixture or oil-in-water mixture) (hereinafter simply referred to as “mixture”) is, for example, Heat (sterilize) and then cool. At this time, if necessary, the mixture can be filtered, heated (sterilized), cooled, and further filtered as necessary.

This heating process and cooling process are not particularly limited as long as they are processed by equipment and equipment used in the food industry, but plate type heat exchangers, tube type heat exchangers, energizing (joule) type heaters, tanks, etc. are applied. it can.

The heating conditions and cooling conditions are not particularly limited. For example, the heating conditions for holding the mixture at 95 ° C. for 20 seconds or more and the cooling for holding the mixture at 30 to 60 ° C. are maintained. There are conditions.

In the subsequent step of the cooling step, from the viewpoint of facilitating mixing of the gas and flavor material into the above mixture, the cooling condition for maintaining the mixture by lowering to 30 to 50 ° C. is preferable, and lowering to 30 to 40 ° C. The cooling condition to hold | maintain is more preferable.

Further, the filtration step described above is not particularly limited, but a ceramic filter or the like can be applied.

In the method for producing a water-in-oil type oil / fat composition of the present invention, a gas and a flavor material are mixed into the mixture prepared as described above. In this case, the gas and the flavor material may be mixed simultaneously with the mixture, the gas may be mixed after mixing the flavor material, or the flavor material may be mixed after mixing the gas.

At this time, when the gas and flavor material are mixed with the above mixture at the same time, or when the gas is mixed after the flavor material is mixed, the flavor (flavor) of the flavor material is easily dissipated, but after the gas is mixed When mixing flavor materials, the flavor is easily maintained. Therefore, it is desirable to mix the flavor material after mixing the gas with the mixture.

In mixing the gas and the flavor material into the mixture prepared as described above, after the heating (sterilization) step and the subsequent cooling step described above are finished, the gas and the flavor material are mixed at the same time, or after the flavor material is mixed. The flavor material can be mixed after mixing the gas or after mixing the gas.

When mixing gas and flavor ingredients into the above mixture, the mixture, gas and flavor ingredients can be handled hygienically (aseptically) and the flavor (flavor) of the flavor ingredients is difficult to dissipate, so they are mixed in-line. It is desirable to do.

At this time, both the gas and the flavor material may be mixed in-line, only the gas may be mixed in-line, or only the flavor material may be mixed in-line.

It is particularly desirable to mix both gas and flavor ingredients in-line because they can be handled more hygienically (aseptically) and the flavor is less likely to dissipate.

When mixing the gas with the above mixture, for example, the gas is blown and dispersed by a nozzle or the like while applying pressure to the gas. At this time, it is desirable to blow and disperse the gas with a nozzle or the like after filtering while applying pressure to the gas.

At this time, as long as it is a device or equipment having the ability to disperse gas in the mixture, it is not particularly limited, but a device or equipment having the ability to continuously mix and disperse the gas in-line is preferable. . For example, “Micro Blender” (trade name: registered trademark) of Izumi Food Machinery Co., Ltd. can be used.

In addition, although the said filtration process is not specifically limited, the filter for disinfection etc. can be applied.

And from the viewpoints of safety, purchase cost (cost), availability, etc., air or an inert gas is preferable as this gas, and nitrogen is more preferable as the inert gas.

At this time, as this gas, air and an inert gas may be used in combination, or only air or only an inert gas may be used. However, oxidation of the mixture can be prevented or suppressed. Therefore, it is desirable to use only an inert gas.

When mixing the gas with the mixture, for example, a gas having a volume of 10% by volume or more of the volume of the mixture is mixed to adjust the overrun value to 10% or more.

From the viewpoints of the effect of improving the structure (easiness of craving and application), physical properties (melting and mouthfeel), flavor (flavor) of the water-in-oil type oil and fat composition produced by the method of the present invention, It is preferable to adjust the overrun value to 10 to 100% by mixing 10 to 100% by volume of gas.

From this point of view, the volume of the gas mixed into the mixture is more preferably 25 to 80%, and further preferably 40 to 60% of the volume of the mixture.

At this time, it is preferable to rapidly cool to 5 to 25 ° C., more preferably to 6 to 20 ° C., more preferably to 7 to 18 ° C. after mixing, that is, dispersing, a gas in the mixture. Further preferred.

It is desirable to mix, ie, disperse, the gas into the above mixture and then rapidly cool and then knead by applying a kneader used in the production of a normal water-in-oil type oil and fat composition.

When mixing the flavor material with the above mixture, for example, while applying pressure to the flavor material, the flavor material is poured and dispersed by a pump and piping.

It is desirable to heat and disinfect the flavoring material while applying pressure to the flavoring material, and then pour and disperse the flavoring material with a pump and piping.

At this time, as long as it is a device or equipment having the ability to disperse the flavor material in the mixture, it is not particularly limited, but the device or equipment having the ability to continuously mix and disperse the flavor material in-line. For example, a combination of a metering pump and piping of each company can be used.

The heating (sterilization) step is not particularly limited, but a plate heat exchanger, tube heat exchanger, energizing (joule) heater, tank, or the like can be applied.

And this flavor material is not particularly limited, but dairy products (cream, cream cheese, fresh cheese (mascarpone, fromage blanc, ricotta, etc.), butter, milk, etc.), fruit juice, fruit juice sauce, vegetable juice, vegetable juice sauce, Examples include seafood sauce, meat sauce, soup stock, seasoning, chocolate, custard cream, and nut paste. These may be used alone or in combination.

At this time, as the flavor material, dairy products are preferable from the viewpoints of physical properties and flavor compatibility with the water-in-oil type oil composition produced by the method of the present invention, and creams are more preferable as the dairy products.

In addition, when this flavor material is mixed in-line (continuously), dissipation of volatile components is prevented or suppressed, and therefore, this flavor material may be a volatile substance.

When mixing the flavor material with the mixture, for example, the weight ratio of the mixture to the flavor material is preferably 50:50 to 90:10.

From the viewpoints of improving the structure (easiness of craving and coating), physical properties (melting and touching of the mouth), flavor (flavor), etc. of the water-in-oil type oil / fat composition produced by the method of the present invention, the above mixture and flavor material Is preferably 50:50 to 85:15, more preferably 50:50 to 80:20, and even more preferably 50:50 to 75:25.

As described above, after mixing (dispersing) a gas in the above mixture, it is preferably rapidly cooled to 5 to 25 ° C, more preferably rapidly cooled to 6 to 20 ° C, and rapidly cooled to 7 to 18 ° C. Is more preferable.

Then, after mixing (dispersing) a gas in the above mixture and quenching it, it is desirable to apply a kneader used in the production of a normal water-in-oil type oil and fat composition and knead it with the flavor material.

In the water-in-oil type oil / fat composition (margarine, spread, etc.) of the present invention, gas is mixed (dispersed) in a mixture prepared by emulsifying or dispersing, or emulsifying and dispersing an oil phase and an aqueous phase. Yes. Or after adding a heating (sterilization) process to the said mixture, or after adding a heating (sterilization) process and the subsequent cooling process, gas is mixed (dispersed).

Thus, by dispersing the gas, compared to the conventional water-in-oil type oil and fat composition, it is easy to crawl and apply, and its mouth melt and touch are also good.

Furthermore, the flavor material is mixed (dispersed) when the gas is mixed (dispersed) or after the gas is mixed (dispersed). Therefore, when the flavor material is dispersed, the flavor (aroma component) of the flavor material is strongly and well felt when eating.

Here, an example of the manufacturing process of the conventional water-in-oil type oil and fat composition is shown in FIG.

Conventionally, oil and fat are crystallized by mixing oil phase and water phase raw materials, and repeating heating (sterilization), cooling, and kneading to prepare specific physical properties for the water-in-oil type oil and fat composition.

At the stage of mixing ingredients in the conventional batch method (batch method), when a flavor material with a delicate flavor such as fresh cream is mixed (added), the ingredients and flavor material are being stirred in a tank etc. In many cases, good flavor components of the flavor material are volatilized and the good flavor is lost.

In addition, when a flavor material such as fresh cream is dispersed in the oil phase in advance, the droplet diameter of the flavor material such as cream becomes smaller due to the mechanical shearing force at the time of gas dispersion in the subsequent gas dispersion stage. There was a tendency that it was difficult to feel the good flavor of the flavor material.

Furthermore, there was a risk of contamination by microorganisms when flavor materials were mixed at the stage of mixing raw materials in a batch system. Therefore, saccharides are sometimes added to the aqueous phase for the purpose of increasing the osmotic pressure of the aqueous phase and improving the microbiological storage stability.

When this measure was taken, there was a problem that the flavor of the water-in-oil oil composition (final product) was limited to a sweet flavor.

On the other hand, an example of the manufacturing process of the water-in-oil type oil and fat composition of the present invention is shown in FIG.

In the present invention, an oil phase and an aqueous phase are prepared in the same manner as in the conventional method for producing a water-in-oil type oil and fat composition.

Then, a mixture is prepared by emulsifying or dispersing or emulsifying and dispersing the prepared oil phase and aqueous phase.

In the present invention, after preparing the above mixture, mixing the gas and further blending the flavor material effectively imparts or enhances a good flavor, so the step of preparing the oil phase, In the step of preparing the aqueous phase or the step of preparing the mixture, the auxiliary raw materials can be prevented from being mixed.

However, when preparing an oil phase or an aqueous phase, if necessary, auxiliary materials such as flavor materials and physical property improvers may be mixed, and when preparing the above mixture, an oil phase or an aqueous phase may be mixed. At the same time, the auxiliary materials may be mixed.

Heat the mixture prepared by emulsifying and / or dispersing the oil phase and the aqueous phase as described above, or the mixture prepared by emulsifying and / or dispersing the oil phase, the aqueous phase and the auxiliary material described above (see above). After sterilization, the gas is mixed (dispersed). Then, it is cooled. Alternatively, the mixture is heated (sterilized) and then cooled, and gas is mixed (dispersed) therein.

Then, a flavor material (for example, a delicate flavor material such as cream) is mixed in-line to prepare physical properties specific to the water-in-oil type oil and fat composition.

In the production method of the present invention, the flavor material can be mixed after the gas is dispersed in the aforementioned mixture in a continuous manner (in-line). Therefore, unlike the conventional batch system, the mechanical shearing force can be controlled very little. Therefore, the flavor diameter of the flavor material could be emphasized by adjusting the droplet diameter of the flavor material to an appropriate size.

Also, in the production method of the present invention, when the flavor materials are mixed in the stage of mixing the raw materials in a continuous manner (in-line), the risk of contamination by microorganisms is reduced.

Therefore, if a shelf-life improving agent such as glycine was added, the refrigerated storage stability and microbial resistance became equivalent to those of conventional water-in-oil type oil / fat compositions without adding saccharides to the aqueous phase.

In the conventional method for producing a water-in-oil type oil / fat composition, when the blending amount of the cream is increased, the emulsification of the cream is broken, and the milk fat derived from the cream is transferred to the oil phase.

In this case, the physical properties of the water-in-oil type oil and fat composition (final product) became hard, and the ease of scooping (scooping) and ease of application (spreadability) were reduced.

On the other hand, in the method for producing a water-in-oil type oil / fat composition of the present invention, a solid fat is obtained by mixing (dispersing) a gas in a mixture prepared by emulsifying and / or dispersing an oil phase and an aqueous phase as described above. Can be adjusted to a small amount. Or after heating (sterilization) the said mixture, or after heating (sterilization) and cooling, the compounding quantity of solid fat can be adjusted small by mixing (dispersing) gas.

As a result, according to the production method of the present invention, it was possible to improve ease of application and ease of application while stably maintaining the emulsification of the cream.

Moreover, in the conventional method for producing a water-in-oil oil / fat composition, in the heating (sterilization) stage, the water-in-oil oil / fat composition is repeatedly circulated through a pipe or the like, and heating is repeated. Especially, a lot of fragrance components of delicate flavor materials such as cream were lost.

Further, by repeatedly heating the water-in-oil type oil / fat composition, there has been a problem that proteins or salts derived from the cream are burnt with a heat sterilizer.

On the other hand, in the present invention, after a mixture prepared by emulsifying and / or dispersing an oil phase and an aqueous phase as described above is heated (sterilized), a delicate flavor material such as cream can be mixed. Therefore, there was no extra heating load, and the flavor components of delicate flavor materials such as cream could be retained well. In particular, when a delicate flavor material such as cream was mixed in-line, the flavor component of the delicate flavor material such as cream could be better retained.

And in the manufacturing method of this invention, since heating to a water-in-oil type oil-fat composition is not repeated, the problem of scorching with heat sterilizers, such as protein and salts, did not arise.
