• An object of the present invention is to provide a meat-like processed food with improved yield when heated.
• the present invention provides (1) a method for producing a meat-like processed food comprising the following steps.
• the gelatinization start temperature of the low-temperature gelatinized starch is 30 to 50°C.
• the meat-like processed food in the present invention refers to a food in which various minced meat is generally used, in which a part or all of the minced meat is replaced with a textured plant material. For example, 50% by weight or more, 80% by weight or more, 90% by weight or more, or 100% by weight of minced meat is replaced with a tissue-form vegetable material that has been rehydrated and drained. These are sometimes described as plant-based or plant-based.
• Foods that usually use various minced meat include hamburgers, patties, meatballs, nuggets, meatballs, ham, sausages, salami, frankfurters, American dogs, gyoza, dumplings, shumai, spring rolls, meat buns, and xiaolongbao. , mince cutlets, meat pies, ravioli, lasagna, meat loaf, cabbage rolls, stuffed peppers, but not limited to these.
• an oil-in-water emulsion containing oil, methylcellulose and water is essential.
• Methylcellulose used in the present invention is obtained by methoxylating cellulose, which is widely distributed in nature, as a raw material, and is usually produced by treating cellulose with caustic soda and then reacting it with methyl chloride and an etherifying agent. It also has the property of reversibly increasing the gelling power by heating.
• methylcellulose can be used alone or in combination with other gelling agents.
• Other gelling agents include egg white, gellan gum, carrageenan, alginic acid, agar, curdlan, konjac powder, starch and the like.
• Meat-like processed foods using methyl cellulose may cause syneresis during heating. When the consumer heats the product directly, the occurrence of water separation will produce a juicy feeling. It causes a significant decrease in yield.
• oils and fats can be used for the oils and fats used in the present invention. Specifically, soybean oil, rapeseed oil, rice oil, corn oil, palm oil, beef tallow, lard, fractionated oils, hydrogenated oils, and transesterified oils thereof can be mentioned, and these can be appropriately selected and used. .
• the object of the present invention is a meat-like processed food, it is desirable to use oils and fats that are in a molten state at body temperature.
• the low-temperature gelatinized starch used in the present invention differs from the so-called gelatinized starch, which is soluble in cold water. It is the starch that initiates the transformation.
• hydroxypropylated phosphate cross-linked starch and the like can be mentioned, and specific examples include LO-TEMP453-S manufactured by TATE & LYLE INGREDIENTS AMERICAS LLC.
• the expression of low-temperature gelatinized starch is sometimes used. Addition of low-temperature gelatinized starch can suppress syneresis without deteriorating texture.
• insoluble dietary fiber Insoluble dietary fiber
• insoluble dietary fiber is plant-derived fiber that does not dissolve in water or warm water. Specific examples include oat fiber, wheat fiber, citrus fiber and the like. In the case of the present invention, citrus fibers with high water absorption, which will be described later, are particularly preferred.
• the insoluble dietary fiber mentioned above is preferably citrus fiber.
• the citrus fiber used in the present invention is obtained by squeezing citrus fruits such as oranges, removing the juice from the squeezed liquid, and subjecting the cell walls to high impact after pulverization. As a result, the micellar structure of the citrus fiber is broken, resulting in a porous structure, which significantly improves water absorption and at the same time increases binding with water, resulting in improved water retention.
• the water absorption per gram is 15 times or more, preferably 18 times or more. The amount of water absorption is measured by adding 50 g of water to 1 g of each sample fiber, stirring it in a 50 ml container, allowing it to stand still for 24 hours, and checking the boundary between the supernatant and the sediment.
• the textured plant material used in the present invention is a material having a water-insoluble tissue, and is mainly divided into a textured vegetable protein material and a textured vegetable polysaccharide material.
• the textured vegetable protein material is a vegetable raw material exemplified by soybeans, defatted soybeans, isolated soybean protein, concentrated soybean protein, wheat, wheat protein, peas, pea protein, chickpeas, mycoprotein, etc. processed into a textured shape.
• soybeans, defatted soybeans, isolated soybean protein, etc. are blended with other raw materials if necessary, and then structured under high temperature and high pressure using a single-screw or twin-screw extruder.
• a structured material can be obtained by subjecting round beans and their fractions as raw materials to a similar treatment.

Although there are products that have been rehydrated and distributed, it is desirable to use dried products (water content of 10% by weight or less) in the present invention. Also suitable for the present invention is a soybean material that is structured by pressing tofu. As the textured vegetable protein material, so-called gluten chips prepared by processing wheat protein can also be used in the present invention.
• the textured vegetable polysaccharide material is a textured product obtained by partially insolubilizing polysaccharides by freezing polysaccharides, particularly konjac gel.
• the tissue-like plant material can be used in combination with various shapes such as a flat shape and a grain shape. Also, various textured plant materials can be used in combination.
• the textured vegetable polysaccharide material, low-temperature gelatinized starch, and if necessary, insoluble dietary fiber are added to the above-mentioned emulsion to make the dough.
• the textured vegetable material is bound by the gelling agent methyl cellulose, and a meat-like processed food can be prepared.
• These animal meat-like processed foods have a texture similar to that of animal meat processed foods using egg white.
• Step a (Emulsion preparation) Fat, methylcellulose and water are mixed to prepare an oil-in-water emulsion. At this time, it is preferable to apply shear using a mixer, food processor, silent cutter, hand blender, stephan mixer, etc., because the emulsified particles become finer.
