Description

Whipped cream

The present disclosure relates to whipped creams and whipped creams containing polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester.

Whipped cream has been used for bakery foods such as cakes and breads, such as nappes, sandwiches, toppings, and dips. The fat and oil contained in the whipped cream is milk fat in the case of fresh cream. However, fresh cream is expensive and has a short end point width at the time of whipping, so it is difficult to handle. Therefore, vegetable creams using vegetable oils and fats as the main raw materials have been developed. Further, in order to supplement the flavor of fresh cream with vegetable cream, a compound type cream containing milk fat and vegetable fat has been developed.

One of the major issues in the development of vegetable creams and compound creams is the enhancement of milk flavor. Then, various proposals have been made to enhance the milk flavor of vegetable creams and compound creams. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a sweetened whipped cream having a potassium content of a certain amount or more and having a rich yet refreshing milk flavor with a protein / potassium value in a certain range. Further, Patent Document 2 contains 0.5 to 3% by weight of a protein derived from milk, and the calcium ion contained in the centrifugally separated aqueous phase portion is adjusted to 30 to 100 mg / 100 g, and the oil and fat content is 15 to 50. Disclosed is a foamable oil-in-water emulsion by weight%.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2017-184637 WO2010-084541

However, the above proposal is for finely adjusting the content and ratio of the components involved, and cannot be easily adopted.

The subject of this disclosure is to develop a simple method for enhancing the flavor of whipped cream or whipped cream.

The present disclosers have made diligent studies to solve the above problems. As a result, it was found that by incorporating the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester in the whipped cream, the sustainability of the flavor after the whipped cream is contained in the mouth is improved. By improving the persistence of the flavor after the whipped cream is in the mouth, the flavor of the whipped cream is felt richer (enhanced). This completes this disclosure. That is, the present disclosure may be in the following aspects.

[1] A whipped cream or a whipped cream containing 5 to 5500% by mass of a polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester.
[2] The whipped cream or whipped cream of [1], which contains 0.001 to 2 parts by mass of polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester with respect to 100 parts by mass of fats and oils.
[3] The whipped cream or whipped cream according to [1] or [2], wherein the polyglycerin portion of the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester has an average degree of polymerization of 2 to 10.
[4] Whipped cream or whipped cream according to any one of [1] to [3], which contains milk fat.
[5] A food or drink containing whipped cream or whipped cream, which is any one of [1] to [4].
[6] A method for sustaining the flavor of whipped cream or whipped cream, which comprises a polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester.

The present disclosure can provide a method for sustaining the flavor of whipped cream or whipped cream. Further, according to the present disclosure, it is possible to provide a whipped cream or a whipped cream having improved flavor persistence.

Hereinafter, this disclosure will be illustrated in detail. In the present disclosure, A (numerical value) to B (numerical value) mean A or more and B or less. In addition, the preferable embodiment and the more preferable embodiment exemplified below can be used in combination with each other as appropriate regardless of the expressions such as "favorable" and "more preferable". Further, the description of the numerical range is an example, and a range in which the upper limit and the lower limit of each range and the numerical values of the examples are appropriately combined can also be preferably used regardless of expressions such as "preferable" and "more preferable". ..

In the present disclosure, cream is a general term for fresh cream and oil and fat compositions used in accordance with fresh cream, such as vegetable cream and compound cream. That is, in the present disclosure, cream is a term indicating fresh cream and its alternative fat and oil composition, both of which are in the ministerial ordinance (December 27, 1951, Ministry of Health and Welfare Ordinance No. 52) concerning component specifications of milk and dairy products. It is not limited to the defined creams, and includes whole milk fat creams, vegetable creams, compound creams, etc., which are labeled as dairy creams.

In the present disclosure, the whipped cream (foaming emulsion) is a cream that can be whipped (foaming, foaming). In the present disclosure, the whipped cream is a whipped cream (in a bubble-containing state). The whipped cream of the present disclosure may be an oil-in-water type (O / W type) or a water-in-water type (W / O / W type) having water as the outermost phase. However, the whipped cream of the present disclosure is preferable because a relatively large amount of PGPR is required to form a water-in-water type (W / O / W type), and the PGPR may have an unpleasant taste. Is a foaming oil-in-water emulsion.

In the present disclosure, the flavor of whipped cream and whipped cream means the flavor felt when whipped cream or whipped cream is eaten. For example, often whipped cream and whipped cream. It has flavors that many people can think of in their eating experience, such as milk flavor, vanilla flavor, yogurt flavor, custard flavor, chocolate flavor, and matcha flavor. Therefore, with those flavors, the flavors of whipped cream and whipped cream can be represented. According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the whipped cream and the whipped cream preferably have one or more flavors selected from milk flavor, vanilla flavor, and custard flavor.

The whipped cream of the present disclosure contains a polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester (hereinafter, may be referred to as PGPR). A method for producing a polyglycerin-condensed ricinoleic acid ester is known, and is obtained, for example, by an esterification reaction between ricinoleic acid mainly obtained from castor oil and polyglycerin. The polyglycerin moiety of the polyglycerin-condensed ricinoleic acid ester is a mixture of a plurality of polyglycerins having different numbers of polymerized glycerins (degrees of polymerization), and can be expressed by the average degree of polymerization. The average degree of polymerization of polyglycerin can be calculated, for example, from the hydroxyl value of the mixture. The average degree of polymerization of the polyglycerin portion of the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester contained in the whipped cream of the present disclosure is preferably about 2 to 10, more preferably about 2 to 8, and further preferably about 3 to 6. Is.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a commercially available product may be used as the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester contained in the whipped cream. Examples of commercially available products include SY Glister CR-310, CR-500, CR-ED, and CRS-75 manufactured by Sakamoto Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., and Sunsoft No. 1 manufactured by Taiyo Kagaku Co., Ltd. 818DG, 818R, 818SK, 818H, etc., Poem PR-300 manufactured by RIKEN Vitamin Co., Ltd., etc. can be appropriately used. Two or more kinds of polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid esters may be used in combination.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the content of the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester contained in the whipped cream is 5 to 5500% by mass (0.0005 to 0.55% by mass), preferably 15 to 3000% by mass. It is ppm, more preferably 30 to 1200 mass ppm, still more preferably 120 to 900 mass ppm, still more preferably 200 to 850 mass ppm, and even more preferably 300 to 800 mass ppm. Most preferably, it is 550 to 800 mass ppm. When the content of the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester is in the above range, the difference in the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester is hardly felt. And, the persistence of the flavor after being put in the mouth as whipped cream or whipped cream is good.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, in the whipped cream, the ratio of the content of the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester is preferably 0.001 to 1 when the content of the fat and oil contained in the whipped cream is 100 parts by mass. It is .5 parts by mass, more preferably 0.01 to 1 part by mass, still more preferably 0.09 to 0.3 parts by mass, and further preferably 0.12 to 0.23 parts by mass. Most preferably 0.14 to 0.22 parts by mass. When the ratio of the content of fats and oils contained in the whipped cream to the content of PGPR is in the above range, the durability of the flavor after being contained in the mouth as whipped cream or whipped cream is good.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the whipped cream may contain phospholipids. The phospholipid contained in the whipped cream is not particularly limited. However, practically, the phospholipid contained in lecithin can be applied. Lecithin is a mixture of several surfactant phospholipids that are widespread in the animal and plant kingdoms. Lecithin is industrially obtained from oil seeds such as soybeans or rapeseed, or animal raw materials such as egg yolk. For example, soybean lecithin contains phospholipids such as phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidylserine in a mixed state. In addition to general crude lecithin, commercially available lecithin is purified powder lecithin obtained by deoiling it, fractionated lecithin obtained by fractionating the components of lecithin, and lecithin by allowing an enzyme to act on it. The obtained enzyme-treated lecithin, or hydrogenated lecithin obtained by hydrogenating lecithin can also be used.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, when lecithin is used as a phospholipid in whipped cream, the phospholipid content contained in the lecithin can be determined, for example, as the content of an acetone insoluble matter. The acetone insoluble matter content of lecithin is determined, for example, as follows. Weigh 2 g of the sample in a beaker, add 300 ml of ice-cooled acetone, stir well and leave for 30 minutes. The supernatant is suction-filtered with a glass filter of known mass, and the insoluble material is washed three times with 30 ml of ice-cooled acetone, and the entire amount of the insoluble material is transferred to the glass filter. After filling the glass filter with ice-cooled acetone and sucking, the glass filter is dried under reduced pressure and the mass is measured. The increase in the mass of the glass filter is the mass of the insoluble acetone. (Mass of insoluble matter / amount of sample taken) × 100 is acetone insoluble matter (mass%). For example, the content of insoluble acetone in crude soybean lecithin is about 60 to 65% by mass. Further, the phospholipid content may be measured by measuring the phosphorus content by high frequency plasma emission spectroscopy or the like and multiplying by 25.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the content of the phospholipid contained in the whipped cream is preferably adjusted so that the total content with the content of the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester is 6000 mass ppm or less. The total content of the phospholipid and the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester contained in the whipped cream can be preferably 5000 mass ppm or less, 4000 mass ppm or less, 3000 mass ppm or less, 2500 mass ppm or less, 2000 ppm or less. .. The lower limit of the total content of the phospholipid and the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester contained in the whipped cream may be 500 ppm by mass or more, 800 ppm or more, 1000 ppm or more, and 1200 ppm or more. The upper limit and the lower limit of the total content of the phospholipid and the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester contained in the whipped cream may be arbitrarily combined. When the total content of the phospholipid and the polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester contained in the whipped cream is in the above range, the whipped cream is likely to foam.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the whipped cream contains fats and oils, preferably 15 to 55% by mass, more preferably 22 to 50% by mass, still more preferably 27 to 49% by mass, and particularly preferably 29 to 48% by mass. Most preferably, it may contain 31 to 47% by mass. The fats and oils contained in whipped cream include fats and oils contained in raw materials in addition to those blended as fats and oils. For example, when a part of the raw material contains whole fat powdered milk, the fat and oil (milk fat) contained in the full fat powdered milk is also included in the fat and oil contained in the whipped cream. Whipped cream contains an appropriate amount of fats and oils, so that the flavor can be easily maintained. A conventionally known method such as a Soxhlet extraction method can be applied to measure the content (oil content) of fats and oils contained in whipped cream.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the whipped cream may be a vegetable cream containing only vegetable fats and oils as fats and oils. Vegetable oils and fats are not particularly limited as long as they are edible. Examples of vegetable oils and fats include palm oil, palm kernel oil, palm oil, and their fractionated oils, hydrogenated oils, and ester exchange oils. Vegetable oils and fats can be used alone or in combination of two or more. The vegetable oil contained in the whipped cream may contain lauric acid in the total amount of fatty acids constituting the oil, preferably 5% by mass or more, 10% by mass or more, 15% by mass or more, and 20% by mass or more. The upper limit of the content of lauric acid in the total amount of constituent fatty acids of vegetable oils and fats contained in whipped cream is not particularly limited. However, it can be preferably 50% by mass or less, 45% by mass or less, 40% by mass or less, and 35% by mass or less. The lower and upper limits of the content of lauric acid in the total amount of constituent fatty acids of vegetable oils and fats contained in whipped cream can be arbitrarily combined. When the content of lauric acid in the total amount of constituent fatty acids of vegetable fats and oils contained in whipped cream is about the above level, the durability of the flavor after being put in the mouth as whipped cream or whipped cream is good.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the whipped cream can be a compound cream containing milk fat (milk fat). The content of milk fat in the fat and oil contained in the whipped cream is preferably 0.5 to 60% by mass, more preferably 2 to 40% by mass, and further preferably 4 to 24% by mass. The milk fat contained in the whipped cream is a fat contained in the milk of cows, goats, horses and the like, and is preferably a fat contained in the milk of cows. Milk fat contained in whipped cream exists in the form contained in butter, butter oil, butter oil fractionated oil, fresh cream, milk, concentrated milk, condensed milk, cheese, whole fat powdered milk, and their fermented products. obtain.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the whipped cream contains water, preferably 20-80% by mass, more preferably 30-75% by mass, still more preferably 40-70% by mass, and even more preferably 45-65% by mass. Can include. The water contained in the whipped cream includes not only the water contained as water but also the water contained in the raw materials. For example, if a part of the raw material contains starch syrup, the water contained in the starch syrup is also included in the water contained in the whipped cream. The water used (blended) in the whipped cream is not particularly limited as long as it is suitable for eating and drinking. As the water, for example, tap water, distilled water, mineral water and the like can be used. For the measurement of the content (moisture) of water contained in the whipped cream, a conventionally known method such as a normal pressure heating and drying method and a Karl Fischer method can be applied.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the pH of the whipped cream is preferably neutral. That is, the pH of the whipped cream is preferably about 5 to 8, more preferably about 5.5 to 7.5, and even more preferably about 6 to 7. When the pH of the whipped cream is in the above range, the acidity does not rise, so that the flavors such as milk flavor, vanilla flavor, and custard flavor are well maintained after being put in the mouth as whipped cream or whipped cream. ..

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the whipped cream may contain other components generally used in the whipped cream, in addition to the polyglycerin condensed lysinoreic acid ester, fats and oils, and water. Examples of other components include taste materials, sweeteners, emulsifiers other than polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid esters, stabilizers, and the like. As the taste material, whole fat powder milk, skim milk powder, fresh cream, full fat concentrated milk, skim concentrated milk, fermented milk, condensed milk, yogurt, cheese and other dairy products, egg yolk powder, sweetened egg yolk and other egg products, cocoa powder , Cacao paste, matcha powder, strawberry powder, soy milk, coconut milk, green juice, and various other seeds and seeds, fruits, beans, and herbs. Sweeteners include sugars such as sucrose (sugar), malt sugar, glucose, fructose, liquid sugar, water candy, xylitol, and erythritol, sugar alcohols, and non-sugar sweeteners such as aspartame, sucralose, acesulfam K, and thaumatin. Can be mentioned. Examples of emulsifiers other than the polyglycerin condensed lysinoreic acid ester include lecithin, sucrose fatty acid ester, propylene glycol fatty acid ester, sorbitan fatty acid ester, glycerin fatty acid ester, polyglycerin fatty acid ester, organic acid monoglyceride, and polysorbate. Stabilizers include guar gum, locust bean gum, xanthan gum, gellan gum, gums such as Arabic gum, corn starch, carrageenan, sodium alginate, CMC, fine cellulose, gelatin, agar, pectin and the like, as well as phosphates. Examples include salts. These other components may be used alone or in combination of the two.

The method for producing the whipped cream disclosed in the present disclosure is not particularly limited. Conventionally known methods can be applied to the production of whipped cream. As an example, fats and oils are melted and other oil-soluble components are dissolved or dispersed to prepare an oil phase. On the other hand, an aqueous phase prepared by dissolving or dispersing other water-soluble components in water is also prepared. The prepared oil phase and aqueous phase are mixed and pre-emulsified. By homogenizing this pre-emulsion, a whipped cream can be produced. It can also be sterilized if necessary. The homogenization treatment may be pre-homogeneous before the sterilization treatment or post-homogeneous after the sterilization treatment. Further, two-stage homogeneity, which is a combination of both pre-homogeneity and post-homogeneity, may be applied. After the homogenization treatment, a cooling and aging step can be preferably applied. Conventionally known conditions can be applied to the above-mentioned conditions such as temperature, pressure, and time in each step such as pre-emulsification, homogenization, sterilization, and cooling.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, in the production of whipped cream, polyglycerin condensed ricinoleic acid ester (PGPR) can be added in any step. The PGPR may be dissolved, for example, in the melted fats and oils along with other oil-soluble components during the preparation of the oil phase. In addition, PGPR may be dispersed in warmed water at the time of preparing the aqueous phase. Further, PGPR may be added to the pre-emulsion before the homogenization treatment. However, since PGPR is oil-soluble, it is preferably added and dissolved in melted fats and oils.

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the whipped cream can be an emulsion containing PGPR, in which vegetable fats and oils and / or milk fats are used as fats and oils in the oil phase. Further, according to one aspect of the present disclosure, the whipped cream is a emulsion containing PGPR in which a mixed fat containing vegetable fat and milk fat (butter, butter oil, butter oil fractionated oil, etc.) is used as the fat in the oil phase. Can be.
