Description

乳化調味料Emulsified seasoning
 本発明は、W/O/W型の乳化調味料に関する。 The present invention relates to an emulsified seasoning of W / O / W type.
 乳化調味料は、野菜、果物、肉、魚、卵、豆腐、ご飯、パン等の色々な食材と混合させて使用される。このうち、野菜と乳化調味料とを混合して調製されるサラダ類では、製造直後から様々な変化が生じるが、なかでも、野菜からの離水は、外観を損ない、野菜の食感が悪くなり、かつ、旨み成分の流出が生じる等の問題を生じさせる。 The emulsified seasoning is used by mixing with various ingredients such as vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, eggs, tofu, rice and bread. Of these, in salads prepared by mixing vegetables and emulsified seasonings, various changes occur immediately after production, but water separation from vegetables impairs the appearance and makes the texture of vegetables worse. In addition, problems such as the outflow of umami components occur.
 かかる問題は、家庭又は飲食店で調製されるサラダ類及び市販のサラダ類のいずれでも生じるものであるが、中でも、市販のサラダ類は通常、製造後、流通工程を経て消費者に喫食されるまでに数時間~数十時間を要する。したがって、市販のサラダ類では、野菜からの離水によって、外観が損なわれ、水分の流出により食感が悪くなったり、旨み成分の流出により風味が大きく低下したりする等の問題が生じる傾向がある。 Such a problem occurs in both salads prepared at home or restaurants and commercially available salads. Among them, commercially available salads are usually eaten by consumers through a distribution process after production. It takes several hours to several tens of hours. Therefore, in the commercially available salads, the appearance is impaired due to water separation from the vegetables, and there is a tendency that the texture is deteriorated due to the outflow of moisture, or the flavor is greatly lowered due to the outflow of the umami component. .
 野菜から滲出する水分を抑制する方法として、例えば、特許文献1には、野菜と水中油型乳化食品を混和させてサラダを製造するときに、両者の混和段階で粉末ガムを添加するサラダの製造方法が記載されており、特許文献2には、グアガム0.02~1重量%を含む液状調味料が記載されている。 As a method for suppressing moisture exuded from vegetables, for example, in Patent Document 1, when a salad is produced by mixing vegetables and an oil-in-water-type emulsified food, the production of a salad in which powdered gum is added at the mixing stage of both. A method is described, and Patent Document 2 describes a liquid seasoning containing 0.02 to 1% by weight of guar gum.
 しかしながら、これらの技術では、ガム質の配合量が多くなると、サラダを調製した際に、サラダの口溶けが悪くなる傾向があるため、野菜からの離水を抑制するのに十分な量のガム質を配合するのが困難である。したがって、これらの技術では、野菜の外観及び食感を維持したまま、野菜から滲出する水分を十分に抑制することは困難である。このように、野菜をはじめとして、果物や麺類等の離水しやすい食材からの離水を効果的に抑制する方法が求められている。 However, in these techniques, when the amount of gum is increased, when the salad is prepared, the melting of the salad tends to worsen, so a sufficient amount of gum to suppress water separation from the vegetable is required. It is difficult to mix. Therefore, with these techniques, it is difficult to sufficiently suppress moisture exuded from vegetables while maintaining the appearance and texture of vegetables. Thus, there is a demand for a method for effectively suppressing water separation from foods that are easy to water separation such as vegetables and fruits and noodles.

1.1. Each component 1.1.1. Edible fats and oils Fats and oils (edible fats and oils) mainly constitute the oil phase (O) of the emulsified seasoning according to the present embodiment. In the emulsified seasoning according to this embodiment, the content of edible fats and oils is 10 to 70%, preferably 10 to 60%, more preferably 10 to 40%, and further 20 to 40%. preferable. When the content of edible fats and oils is less than 10% or exceeds 70%, the emulsion stability may be lowered.
 食用油脂としては、例えば、食用植物油脂(例えば、菜種油、大豆油、紅花油、ひまわり油、コーン油、オリーブ油、グレープシード油、ごま油、綿実油、シソの実油、アマニ油)、魚油、肝油、さらにはエステル交換した油脂やジグリセライドを主に含む油脂が挙げられ、これらを単独でまたは2種以上を組み合わせて使用することができる。 Examples of edible oils and fats include edible vegetable oils and fats (eg, rapeseed oil, soybean oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil, corn oil, olive oil, grape seed oil, sesame oil, cottonseed oil, perilla seed oil, linseed oil), fish oil, liver oil, Furthermore, fats and oils mainly containing transesterified fats and oils and diglycerides can be mentioned, and these can be used alone or in combination of two or more.
1.1.2.乳化剤
 本実施形態に係る乳化調味料は、エステル化度が80~100%であるポリグリセリン縮合リシノレイン酸エステル(以下「PGPR」とする。)を含有する。本実施形態に係る乳化調味料において、PGPRは、後述の卵黄及び他の乳化剤と併用することができる。本実施形態に係る乳化調味料では、PGPRのエステル化度は、サラダの風味、外観および離水防止効果が高い点で、80~100%であり、90~100%であることが好ましい。なお、PGPRは油相に添加することが好ましい。
1.1.2. Emulsifier The emulsified seasoning according to this embodiment contains a polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester (hereinafter referred to as “PGPR”) having an esterification degree of 80 to 100%. In the emulsified seasoning according to this embodiment, PGPR can be used in combination with egg yolk and other emulsifiers described later. In the emulsified seasoning according to this embodiment, the degree of esterification of PGPR is 80 to 100%, preferably 90 to 100%, from the viewpoint of high salad flavor, appearance, and water separation prevention effect. PGPR is preferably added to the oil phase.
 本発明において「PGPRのエステル化度」とは、PGPRに含まれるポリグリセリン部位において縮合リシノレイン酸が結合している割合をいう。より具体的には、ポリグリセリンの平均重合度をnとしたとき、ポリグリセリンは分子内に平均(n+2)個の水酸基を有するため、ポリグリセリン1分子に対して1~(n+2)分子の縮合リシノレイン酸をエステル結合することが可能である。 In the present invention, “degree of PGPR esterification” refers to the ratio of condensed ricinoleic acid bound to the polyglycerin moiety contained in PGPR. More specifically, when the average degree of polymerization of polyglycerin is n, polyglycerin has an average of (n + 2) hydroxyl groups in the molecule, so 1 to (n + 2) molecules are condensed per polyglycerin molecule. It is possible to esterify ricinoleic acid.
 したがって、PGPRに含まれるポリグリセリン部位に縮合リシノレイン酸がエステル結合されていない場合、PGPRのエステル化度は0%であり、PGPRに含まれるポリグリセリン部位に含まれる全ての水酸基がエステル結合されている場合、PGPRのエステル化度は100%である。PGPRは通常、種々のエステル化度のものからなるため、その平均エステル化度をPGPRのエステル化度とする。 Therefore, when condensed ricinoleic acid is not ester-bonded to the polyglycerin moiety contained in PGPR, the degree of esterification of PGPR is 0%, and all the hydroxyl groups contained in the polyglycerin moiety contained in PGPR are ester-bonded.

1.8. Effect The emulsified seasoning according to the present embodiment is a W / O / W type emulsified seasoning containing edible fats and oils, a thickener and salt, and has a degree of esterification of 80 to 100%. An average particle diameter of W / O / W type emulsified particles comprising ricinoleic acid ester, having a viscosity of 4 to 500 Pa · s, a content of the sodium chloride of 1 to 6% by mass, and constituting the emulsified seasoning 4 to 20 μm, the water separation rate is 30% or less. Therefore, when mixed with food, it effectively suppresses water separation from food (especially vegetables) while maintaining the texture of the food. Can do. Thereby, the appearance and texture of the food can be maintained, and the flavor of the food can be maintained because the umami component and the salt can be prevented from leaking together with moisture by suppressing water separation. . In addition, the emulsified seasoning according to the present embodiment can maintain the water separation inhibiting effect even after storage at room temperature (15 to 25 ° C.) for a long period (for example, 2 months or more, preferably 4 months or more).
 本発明者は、本実施形態に係る乳化調味料に含まれるポリグリセリン縮合リシノレイン酸エステルのエステル化度によって、乳化調味料の離水抑制効果が変化することを見出した(図2)。図2は、後述する本実施例の乳化調味料に含まれるポリグリセリン縮合リシノレイン酸エステルのエステル化度と離水率との関係を示す図である。より具体的には、本発明者は、図2に示されるように、本実施形態に係る乳化調味料に含まれるポリグリセリン縮合リシノレイン酸エステルのエステル化度が33%である場合、離水率が低く(離水抑制効果が高い)、該エステル化度が33%を超えて約50%に近づくにしたがって、離水率が大きくなり(離水抑制効果が低くなる)、また、該エステル化度が約50%を超えて約70%に近づくにしたがって、離水率がさらに高くなり(離水抑制効果が低下し)、さらに、該エステル化度が約70%を超えると離水率が低下し(離水抑制効果が高くなる)、そして、該エステル化度が80%~100%である場合、離水率がきわめて低い(離水抑制効果が非常に高い)ことを見出した。 The present inventor has found that the water separation inhibitory effect of the emulsified seasoning varies depending on the degree of esterification of the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester contained in the emulsified seasoning according to the present embodiment (FIG. 2). FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the relationship between the degree of esterification and the water separation rate of the polyglycerin-condensed ricinoleic acid ester contained in the emulsified seasoning of the present embodiment to be described later. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, the present inventor has a water separation rate of 33% when the degree of esterification of the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester contained in the emulsified seasoning according to this embodiment is 33%. The water separation rate increases (the water separation inhibitory effect decreases) as the esterification degree exceeds 33% and approaches 50%, and the esterification degree is about 50%. %, The water separation rate is further increased (the water separation suppression effect is reduced), and when the degree of esterification exceeds about 70%, the water separation rate is decreased (the water separation suppression effect is increased). It was found that when the degree of esterification is 80% to 100%, the water separation rate is extremely low (the water separation inhibiting effect is very high).
 本実施形態に係る乳化調味料に含まれるポリグリセリン縮合リシノレイン酸エステルのエステル化度が80%~100%である場合に離水抑制効果が非常に高い原因としては、エステル化度が80%~100%のポリグリセリン縮合リシノレイン酸エステルを用いた場合、本実施形態に係る乳化調味料を構成するW/O/W型乳化粒子に含まれるW/O型乳化粒子の累積50%径が1.2μm以下であり、かつ、累積90%径が2μm以下となること)により、粒径の大きいW/O型乳化粒子の量が一定割合以下となり、また、W/O/W型乳化粒子の径が均一となって、W/O/W型乳化粒子間に水を安定して保持することができるため、優れた離水抑制効果を奏することができると推測される。 As the cause of the very high water separation inhibiting effect when the degree of esterification of the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester contained in the emulsified seasoning according to this embodiment is 80% to 100%, the degree of esterification is 80% to 100%. % Of the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester, the cumulative 50% diameter of the W / O type emulsified particles included in the W / O / W type emulsified particles constituting the emulsified seasoning according to this embodiment is 1.2 μm. And the cumulative 90% diameter is 2 μm or less), the amount of W / O-type emulsified particles having a large particle size becomes a certain ratio or less, and the diameter of the W / O / W-type emulsified particles is Since it becomes uniform and water can be stably held between the W / O / W type emulsified particles, it is presumed that an excellent water separation inhibiting effect can be achieved.
 本実施形態に係る乳化調味料は、種々の食材(例えば、野菜、果物、肉、魚、卵、豆腐、ご飯、パン、麺類、菓子、乳製品及びこれらの加工品)に使用することができるが、なかでも、水分を多く含み、離水を生じ易い食材(例えば、野菜、果物、麺類、豆腐、卵加工品、ゼリー、ヨーグルト)、特に野菜(例えば、キャベツ、レタス、白菜、きゅうり、セロリ、玉ねぎ、にんじん、コーン、大根、ごぼう、ブロッコリー、カリフラワー、トマト)、果実(例えば、りんご、みかん、パイナップル、ぶどう、いちご、キウイ、もも、梨、メロン、すいか、グレープフルーツ、アボガド、マンゴー、これらの缶詰)、麺類(例えば、マカロニ、スパゲティ、春雨、ビーフン、ペンネ、アジア麺)に使用した場合に、食感を維持したまま、離水をより効果的に抑制することができる。例えば、野菜、果物、又は麺類が、家庭又は飲食店で調製されるサラダ類及び市販のサラダ類に含まれるものである場合、サラダ類に含まれる野菜、果物、又は麺類からの離水をより効果的に抑制することができる。 The emulsified seasoning according to the present embodiment can be used for various foods (for example, vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, eggs, tofu, rice, bread, noodles, confectionery, dairy products, and processed products thereof). However, among them, ingredients that contain a lot of water and are susceptible to water separation (eg, vegetables, fruits, noodles, tofu, processed egg products, jelly, yogurt), especially vegetables (eg, cabbage, lettuce, Chinese cabbage, cucumber, celery, Onion, carrot, corn, radish, burdock, broccoli, cauliflower, tomato), fruit (eg, apple, tangerine, pineapple, grape, strawberry, kiwi, peach, pear, melon, watermelon, grapefruit, avocado, mango, these Canned), noodles (for example, macaroni, spaghetti, vermicelli, rice noodles, penne, Asian noodles), water release while maintaining the texture It can be more effectively suppressed. For example, when vegetables, fruits, or noodles are contained in salads prepared at home or restaurants and commercially available salads, water removal from vegetables, fruits, or noodles contained in salads is more effective. Can be suppressed.
 また、本実施形態に係る乳化調味料は、W/O/W型乳化粒子であって、かつ、食塩含量が1~6%であることにより、風味が良好であるのに加えて、食塩の総含有量を内水相と外水相とに分散させることで、食材に接する外水相の塩分量を低減することができ、これにより、外水相の浸透圧を低くすることによって、食材からの離水を効果的に抑制することができる。 In addition, the emulsified seasoning according to the present embodiment is a W / O / W type emulsified particle and has a salt content of 1 to 6%. By dispersing the total content in the inner water phase and the outer water phase, the salinity of the outer water phase in contact with the food can be reduced, thereby reducing the osmotic pressure of the outer water phase. The water separation from can be effectively suppressed.
