More specifically, food materials used as toppings for vegetables, livestock meat and Z or seafood ingredients, soups containing vegetables (vegetables), potatoes, etc., production methods thereof, and food ingredients thereof For example, it relates to processed foods such as chilled storage, soup with ingredients that can be stored at room temperature, dressings, seasonings, etc.

背景技術  Background art

[0002] 野菜類は、図 6の各野菜の水分 (生原料)に示すように非常に水分が多ぐ図 7の生 野菜における一般生菌数に示すように雑菌が多ぐフレッシュのままでは日持ちがし ない。そのため、野菜類を長期に保存するために、「塩蔵」、「低温保管」、「乾燥 (熱 風乾燥、凍結乾燥)」、「缶詰'レトルト」などが行われて!/、る。  [0002] Vegetables are very fresh as shown in Figure 6's moisture content (raw raw materials). Does not last long. Therefore, in order to preserve vegetables for a long period of time, “salt storage”, “cold storage”, “drying (hot air drying, freeze drying)”, “canned retort”, etc. are performed!

[0003] 輸入農産物の大半および漬物原料の大部分は、塩蔵原料である。これらは 20%以 上の食塩濃度の飽和食塩水が使用されており、脱塩工程が必須であり長時間を要 するため、脱塩時の脱塩水で原料の風味や必要成分などまでを洗 、流してしまう欠 点がある。最近では健康指向、嗜好の変化で低塩ィ匕が進んでいるので問題を大きく している。そこで、野菜類を塩蔵する保存方法としては、洗浄した生の野菜、果実類 を、 pH4.6以下に調整した食塩濃度 2%〜10%の水溶液に漬けて、 -600mmHg以下の 減圧状態に保持することを特徴とする野菜の保存法が提言されている (特許文献 1)  [0003] Most of the imported agricultural products and most of the raw materials for pickles are salted raw materials. Since these use saturated saline with a salt concentration of 20% or more, a desalting process is essential and a long time is required, so the flavor and necessary ingredients of the raw materials are washed with the desalted water during desalting. , There is a deficiency that will be lost. Recently, low-salt candy has been advancing due to changes in health orientation and preferences, and this has exacerbated the problem. Therefore, as a preservation method for salting vegetables, the washed raw vegetables and fruits are soaked in an aqueous solution with a salt concentration of 2% to 10% adjusted to pH 4.6 or less and kept under a reduced pressure of -600 mmHg or less. A method for preserving vegetables, which is characterized by the above, has been proposed (Patent Document 1)

[0004] 野菜類を熱風乾燥または凍結乾燥する保存方法としては、例えば、加熱処理およ び Zまたは加糖処理を施した野菜を熱風乾燥または温風乾燥することにより、該野 菜中の水分を減少させた後、真空乾燥または真空凍結乾燥することを特徴とする乾 燥野菜の製造方法がある (特許文献 2)。 [0005] ところで、食品に含まれる水分は、食品の食感や風味に大きく影響して 、る。一般 に、食品中の水分は、微生物繁殖の原因となり、水分含量の多い食品ほど腐敗しや すくなる。しかし、同じ水分含量の食品でも、塩類、糖類、アミノ酸類などを含有するも のは、水の一部がこれらに引きつけられて微生物に利用されにくくなるため腐敗しに くくなる。すなわち、食品の保存性は、水分含量というより、水分活性に依存しており、 したがって、食品に、上記塩類、糖類、アミノ酸類などを加えて水分活性を低下させ ることにより保存性を向上させる方法がとられている。例えば、 L—ァラビノースを有効 成分とする食品類、好ましくは糖液 (シロップ)類、和洋菓子類、ペースト類、ジャム類 、シロップ漬類、糖果類、漬け物類、豆腐類、こんにゃく類、畜肉製品類、魚肉製品 類、鶏卵加工品類から選ばれた食品の水分活性調節剤およびこれらの食品類に、 Lーァラビノースを有効成分とする水分調節剤を添加することを特徴とする食品類の 水分活性調節方法が提言されて!ヽる (特許文献 3)。 [0004] As a preservation method of drying or freeze-drying vegetables, for example, the vegetables in the vegetables are subjected to heat treatment and Z or sweetened treatment by hot air drying or hot air drying to thereby remove moisture in the vegetables. There is a method for producing dried vegetables characterized by vacuum drying or vacuum freeze drying after the reduction (Patent Document 2). [0005] By the way, moisture contained in food greatly affects the texture and flavor of food. In general, water in food causes microbial growth, and foods with higher water content are more susceptible to spoilage. However, foods with the same moisture content that contain salts, sugars, amino acids, etc. are less likely to rot because some of the water is attracted to them and is less likely to be used by microorganisms. That is, the preservability of food depends on the water activity rather than the water content. Therefore, the preservability is improved by reducing the water activity by adding the above salts, sugars, amino acids, etc. to the food. The method is taken. For example, foods containing L-arabinose as an active ingredient, preferably sugar liquid (syrup), Japanese and Western confectionery, pastes, jams, syrup pickles, berries, pickles, tofu, konjac, livestock meat products Water activity regulator for foods selected from fish, meat products and processed egg products, and a method for regulating water activity of foods, comprising adding a water regulator containing L-arabinose as an active ingredient to these foods Is proposed!

発明が解決しょうとする課題  Problems to be solved by the invention

[0007] 今日まで「塩分 ·水分 ·水分活性を適正に保ち」、「チルド保管および常温保管が可 能」で「優れた味 '色 ·香 ·テクスチャーを有し」品質が変化しな 、野菜類、肉類および Zまたは魚介類の加工品は無力つた。 [0007] To date, “salt content, moisture, water activity is kept properly”, “chilled storage and room temperature storage are possible”, “excellent taste” color, incense, texture, and quality have not changed. Seafood, meat and processed products of Z or seafood were powerless.

[0008] 「塩蔵」、「乾燥」の保存方法にお!、ては、スープ、ドレッシング、調味料液などに入 れた際に復元に時間が力かりテクスチャーも異なるという問題がある。 [0008] The storage method of “salt storage” and “dry” has a problem that when it is put into soup, dressing, seasoning liquid, etc., it takes time to restore and the texture is different.

「塩蔵」では、長期保存性を持たせるために塩分濃度が非常に高く(15〜20%以上) する必要があり、近年の低塩嗜好に反するという問題もある。  In “salt storage”, the salt concentration needs to be very high (15 to 20% or more) in order to provide long-term storage, and there is a problem that it is contrary to the recent low salt preference.

「低温保管」では、保存期間が短ぐ常温保管ができないという問題もある。 “Low-temperature storage” has a problem that it cannot be stored at room temperature because the storage period is short.

「乾燥」では、乾燥工程の熱変性により味 ·色 ·香の変化が生じてしまうと!、う問題、 保管中に酸素と接触することで酸ィ匕により退色が起こると 、う問題もある。 In “drying”, if there is a change in taste, color, and fragrance due to thermal denaturation of the drying process, there is a problem of color loss, and when it comes into contact with oxygen during storage, it causes discoloration due to acid and soot. .

凍結乾燥方法は、前処理として凍結を必要とするため、乾燥時間が長時間(12〜2 4時間)かかるため、イニシャルコストやランニングコストが高くなるという問題もある。 The freeze-drying method requires freezing as a pretreatment, so the drying time is long (12-2 4 hours), there is a problem that initial cost and running cost are high.

[0009] 「缶詰'レトルト」は、常温保存が可能であるが、高温高圧下で殺菌をする際に変色 し、テクスチャーも変化してしまう。し力も、野菜と肉を同一製品の中に入れた場合、 野菜が煮崩れをおこすため「肉」と「野菜 (得に葉物野菜)」を最良の食感のまま製品 化することは不可能であった。 [0009] "Canned 'retort" can be stored at room temperature, but discolors and changes its texture when sterilized under high temperature and pressure. However, when vegetables and meat are placed in the same product, the vegetables will boil down, so it is not possible to produce “meat” and “vegetables (and leafy vegetables)” with the best texture. It was possible.

[0010] ところで、「油調理'減圧フライ」という方法がある力 これらのものは保存性と品質を 兼ね備えたものは無ぐ油調理品には水分が多く残っており、味の面で問題があった [0010] By the way, the power of the method of "oil cooking 'decompression frying" has no problem in terms of taste. there were

Used for processed foods such as soups, dressings and seasonings that can be stored . Preferred examples of processed foods using the food material of the present invention include room-temperature cup meal ingredients, chilled meal ingredients, cup soup ingredients, risotto ingredients. According to the present invention, vegetables, meat, and Z or fish and shellfish can be packaged while maintaining stability such as aroma and texture.

[0019] 以下では、本発明を実施するための最良の形態を、本発明を構成する 3つの態様 により説明する。  [0019] In the following, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to three embodiments constituting the present invention.

[0020] 本発明の第 1の態様は、原料食品に対する塩類および Zまたは糖類での前処理を 行った原料食品にオイルを媒介として真空下脱水し、調味液および Zまたは調味油 に漬けた食品素材である。より具体的には、塩ィ匕ナトリウムおよび zまたは塩ィ匕カリウ ムおよび Zまたは塩ィ匕カルシウムおよび Zまたは重曹などおよび Zまたは糖 (以下「 塩類など」と記す)の水溶液に野菜類原料、畜肉原料および Zまたは魚介類原料を 適宜浸漬し、熱伝導効率の良いオイルを媒介として真空脱水し、調味液および Zま たは調味油に漬ける。  [0020] In the first aspect of the present invention, the raw material food that has been pre-treated with the salt and Z or saccharides for the raw material food is dehydrated under vacuum using oil as a medium, and is soaked in a seasoning liquid and Z or seasoning oil. It is a material. More specifically, vegetable raw materials are added to an aqueous solution of sodium chloride and sodium or z or salt and potassium and Z or salt and calcium and Z or baking soda and Z or sugar (hereinafter referred to as “salts”). Immerse livestock raw materials and Z or seafood raw materials appropriately, vacuum dehydrate them using oil with good heat conduction efficiency, and soak in seasoning liquid and Z or seasoning oil.

[0021] 真空下脱水時に媒介とするオイルは、通常はサラダ油、キャノーラ油を用いるが、 特徴をつけるためにォリーブオイル (バージンオイル含む)、豚抽出油脂、鶏抽出油 脂、香味オイル等を用いてもよぐ食用油であれば特定のものに限定されない。 調味液および Zまたは調味油には、上記オイルにカ卩え、一般的な調味オイル (例え ば豚セァブラの溶解油、ネギ油、胡麻油など)を使っても良い。豚肉に使用する調味 液の好ましい配合例としては、醤油 350、シロップ 250、和風だし 175、水 110、塩 60、砂 糖 30、調味料 (アミノ酸等) 25の割合で配合したものが挙げられる。ここでいう「調味料 」は、一般的な食品表示で用いられるものであり、アミノ酸、核酸等のことをいう。なお 、豚肉に用いる調味液はこれに限定されず、上記オイルを使用する場合も当然ある。  [0021] Oil used as a medium during dehydration under vacuum is usually salad oil or canola oil, but olive oil (including virgin oil), pork extract fat, chicken extract fat, flavor oil, etc. are used to characterize the oil. The edible oil is not limited to a specific one. For the seasoning liquid and Z or seasoning oil, a common seasoning oil (for example, pork sabbra dissolved oil, leek oil, sesame oil, etc.) may be used in addition to the above oil. Preferable examples of the seasoning liquid used for pork include soy sauce 350, syrup 250, Japanese dashi 175, water 110, salt 60, sugar 30 and seasonings (amino acids, etc.) 25. The “seasoning” as used herein is used in general food labeling and refers to amino acids, nucleic acids and the like. In addition, the seasoning liquid used for pork is not limited to this, Of course, the said oil may be used.

[0022] 本発明により、微生物の制御と味、香り、テクスチャーなど安定した品質で長期間保 存できる食品素材、特に加工食品用に適した食品素材を提供できることが可能とな つた。また、オイル置換を行うことにより、水分とオイルの置換で本来の食感 (組織 Z テクスチャー)も保持できる。また、オイルコーティングされることにより直接酸素と触れ ないため酸ィ匕による変化を抑えることが可能となり、常温での長期間保管が可能とな つた。なお、好ましいオイル含量は 5%〜60%である。 [0023] 塩類など溶液を用いる場合、濃度 1%〜20%の塩類など溶液が用いられる。原料 食品に対する塩類などの添カ卩は、例えば、飽和溶液もしくは固体塩類を直接添加し 、馴染ませることで、塩分濃度を調整することができる。その場合の濃度の範囲の特 定法は、上記塩類など溶液を用いる場合の濃度が目安となる。 [0022] According to the present invention, it has become possible to provide a food material that can be stored for a long period of time with a stable quality such as control of microorganisms, taste, aroma, and texture, particularly suitable for processed foods. In addition, by replacing the oil, the original texture (texture Z texture) can be maintained by replacing the water and the oil. In addition, the oil coating prevents direct contact with oxygen, so that changes due to acid can be suppressed, and long-term storage at room temperature becomes possible. The preferred oil content is 5% to 60%. [0023] When a solution such as a salt is used, a solution such as a salt having a concentration of 1% to 20% is used. For example, a salt solution added to a raw material food can be adjusted by adding a saturated solution or solid salt directly and adjusting it. In that case, the concentration range in the case of using a solution such as the above salts is a guideline.

特に野菜類の食品素材においては、塩類などが内部に浸透することにより退色を 防止し、食感の保持、雑菌の増殖抑制が可能となる。適正な水分 '塩分'水分活性の もとでの保管が可能であり、味 ·色 ·香 'テクスチャーの変化もない。更にこれらの野菜 類の食品素材は、湯やスープ類に入れても瞬時に復元が可能である。図 8は、その サンプル品の写真である。  Particularly in vegetable food materials, discoloration can be prevented by the penetration of salts and the like into the interior, and the texture can be maintained and the growth of germs can be suppressed. It can be stored under proper water 'salty' water activity, and there is no change in texture, taste, color and incense. Furthermore, these vegetable food materials can be instantly restored even when placed in hot water or soup. Figure 8 is a photograph of the sample.

[0024] 塩溶液に浸漬したキャベツと無処理 (浸漬なし)のキャベツを、オイルを媒体として 真空下で脱水を行った際の比較結果を表 1に示す。「塩 +重曹添加」は、キャベツ 10 0gを塩化ナトリウム 13.5%+塩化カリウム 13.5%+重曹 0.5%濃度の溶液 200gに 4時間浸 漬後、オイルを媒体として脱水処理したものである。  [0024] Table 1 shows a comparison result when the cabbage immersed in the salt solution and the untreated (no immersion) cabbage were dehydrated under vacuum using oil as a medium. “Salt + baking soda addition” is 100 g of cabbage dipped in 200 g of a solution of 13.5% sodium chloride + 13.5% potassium chloride + 0.5% sodium bicarbonate for 4 hours and then dehydrated using oil as a medium.

[0025] [Table 1]
Figure imgf000009_0001

〇:良い(緑色)、 X:悪い(褐変が起こっている)  ○: Good (green), X: Bad (browning has occurred)

[0026] 表 1を見ると分かるとおり、無処理のキャベツは褐変が進むのに比べ、塩化ナトリウ ムなどに浸漬処理したキャベツは褐変が抑制された。これは、野菜の退色の原因で あるクロロフィルからのマグネシウムイオンの解離の抑制によるものである。ただし、加 熱工程と浸漬工程の順は問わな!/、。  [0026] As can be seen from Table 1, the browning of cabbage that had been soaked in sodium chloride or the like was suppressed compared to the untreated cabbage that proceeded to brown. This is due to suppression of dissociation of magnesium ions from chlorophyll, which is the cause of discoloration of vegetables. However, the order of the heating process and the dipping process does not matter!

[0027] 本発明の第 2の態様は、第 1の態様における葉物野菜原料などの前処理方法に関 し、葉物野菜の芯部分についても葉部分と同じような塩漬、乾燥、脱水効率を得るこ とを可能とするものである。 [0027] The second aspect of the present invention relates to a pretreatment method for leafy vegetable ingredients and the like in the first aspect, and the core part of the leafy vegetable is salted, dried and dehydrated in the same manner as the leaf part. It is possible to obtain efficiency.

葉物野菜にお!、ては、野菜の芯 Z葉脈の部分と葉の部分では厚みや硬さが異なる ため、乾燥 (凍結乾燥、熱風乾燥など)を行うことにより次の (1)〜(3)のような問題点が ある。  For leafy vegetables! Because the thickness and hardness of the vegetable core Z veins and leaf parts differ, the following (1) to () can be performed by drying (freeze drying, hot air drying, etc.) There is a problem like 3).

(1)芯と葉で乾燥時間が異なるため、均一な乾燥ができない。 (2)乾燥時間を芯に合わせると時間が長くなり褐変する。 (1) Since the drying time differs between the core and the leaf, uniform drying is not possible. (2) When the drying time is adjusted to the core, the time becomes longer and browns.

(3)乾燥を均一にするために、芯の部分を除去すると収率が悪くなる。  (3) If the core portion is removed in order to make the drying uniform, the yield will deteriorate.

[0028] そこで、本発明は、葉物野菜の芯部分 Z葉脈を一定の厚みにプレスした後、マイク 口波加熱またはブランチングすることにより上記問題を解決した。  Therefore, the present invention solves the above problem by pressing the core portion Z leaf vein of leafy vegetables to a certain thickness and then heating or branching the microphone.

すなわち、  That is,

(1)葉物野菜を 1枚ずつに分ける。もしくは、ダイサーなどの機械により、数 cm角に力 ッ卜する。  (1) Divide leafy vegetables one by one. Alternatively, force it to several cm square with a machine such as a dicer.

(2)そのまま或いはカット野菜の状態として、任意のクリアランス(ロールの隙間幅)を 取ったローラーの間に通す。  (2) As it is or in the state of cut vegetables, pass it between the rollers with any clearance (roll gap width).

(3)マイクロ波加熱またはブランチングする。  (3) Microwave heating or branching.

という工程を経ることにより、ローラーから出てきた葉は、芯および葉脈が均一の厚 さに調整され、芯および葉脈の繊維質の部分が壊されるため、塩漬、乾燥、脱水を 他の葉部分とほぼ同じ処理時間で均一に行うことが可能となった。し力も、芯部分 Z 葉脈を一定の厚みにプレスすることで、今まで廃棄されてきた芯の部分を利用するこ とができ、さらに均一に乾燥することができた。また、マイクロ波加熱により内部から均 一に加熱することで、野菜類の退色、劣化にかかわる酵素の失活、および水分の予 備除去を行うことができ、ブランチングにより加熱することで、野菜類の退色、劣化に 力かわる酵素の失活を行うことができる。  Through this process, the leaves coming out of the roller are adjusted to a uniform thickness at the core and veins, and the fibrous parts of the core and veins are broken. It became possible to carry out uniformly in almost the same processing time as the part. Also, by pressing the core part Z vein to a certain thickness, the part of the core that had been discarded so far could be used and dried evenly. In addition, by heating uniformly from the inside by microwave heating, it is possible to discolor the vegetables, deactivate the enzymes involved in deterioration, and remove water in advance. It can inactivate enzymes that contribute to discoloration and degradation of the species.

[0029] マイクロ波加熱 Zブランチング処理を行ったキャベツと無処理 (加熱なし)のキヤべ ッを、オイルを媒体として真空下脱水を行ったものについて、退色試験を実施した結 果を表 2に示す。なお、「マイクロ波加熱」のキャベツとは、キャベツ 25gを 600wのマイ クロ波加熱装置にて 1分処理したものであり、「ブランチング」のキャベツとは、 95〜98 °Cの湯中で 30秒間ブランチング処理をしたものである。  [0029] Table 2 shows the results of the fading test for the cabbage that had been subjected to microwave heating Z-branching and the cabbage that had not been treated (no heating) were dehydrated under vacuum using oil as a medium. Shown in Note that “microwave heating” cabbage is 25 g of cabbage treated with a 600w microwave heating device for 1 minute, and “branching” cabbage is in 95-98 ° C hot water.

〇:良い(緑色)、 X:悪い(褐変が起こっている)  ○: Good (green), X: Bad (browning has occurred)

表 2を見ると分かるとおり、無処理のキャベツと比較して、マイクロ波加熱やブランチ ングを行ったキャベツは褐変が抑えられた。これは、野菜の退色の原因であるポリフ ェノールォキシダーゼによるポリフエノール関連物質の酸ィ匕を抑制する為に、ポリフエ ノールォキシダーゼを失活させたことに起因する。なお、色劣化についての影響が少 な 、畜肉や魚介類にっ 、てはマイクロ波加熱などを必ず行わなければならな ヽと ヽ うことはない。 As can be seen from Table 2, microwave heating and branching compared to untreated cabbage Browning was suppressed in the cabbage. This is due to the inactivation of polyphenoloxidase to suppress the acidity of polyphenol-related substances caused by polyphenoloxidase, which is the cause of fading of vegetables. In addition, for meat and seafood that has little effect on color deterioration, microwave heating etc. must be performed without fail.

[0032] 本発明の第 3の態様は、第 1または第 2の態様において、オイルを媒介とした真空 下脱水の温度と時間を調整した食品素材、特に加工食品に適した食品素材である。 真空下脱水の温度と時間を調整することにより、食材への調理感が付与でき、水分 活性 (Water Activity)を最適な値に調整することができる。なお、調理感とは、生でな い、生臭みの無いことをいい、調理をしたときの加熱臭、加熱感、炒め臭、反応臭な どの香味が付与されることも含む。  [0032] A third aspect of the present invention is a food material suitable for a food material, particularly a processed food, in which the temperature and time of dehydration under vacuum mediated by oil are adjusted in the first or second aspect. By adjusting the temperature and time of dehydration under vacuum, it is possible to give the food a sense of cooking, and the water activity can be adjusted to an optimum value. The feeling of cooking means that it is not raw and has no odor, and includes the addition of flavors such as a heated odor when cooked, a feeling of heating, a stir-fried odor, and a reaction odor.

[0033] ここで、水分活性とは、微生物が繁殖に利用することができる加工食品 (本発明に おいては食品素材)中の水分の割合をいう。食品、薬品の腐敗、発酵、力ビ等はそれ らに含まれる水が関係しており、微生物が生育するためには水分が不可欠である。 水分含量と水分活性は比例関係にあるわけではなぐ糖質や食塩濃度によって水分 活性は変わる。すなわち食品の水分活性は乾燥によって水分含量を小さくすれば当 然低くなるが、砂糖や食塩の呼応濃度添加によっても低下する。  [0033] Here, the water activity refers to the proportion of water in the processed food (food material in the present invention) that can be used for propagation by microorganisms. Food, chemical spoilage, fermentation, and strength are related to the water contained in them, and water is essential for the growth of microorganisms. The water activity varies depending on the sugar and salt concentration, which is not proportional to the water content. In other words, the water activity of food is naturally reduced when the water content is reduced by drying, but it is also reduced by the addition of responsive concentrations of sugar and salt.

微生物にはそれぞれ生育可能な水分活性範囲があり、ある水分活性以下では生 育できなくなり、多くの食中毒菌の生育最低水分活性は 0.94Aw以上と言われている 。発明者は、食材の水分活性を適当な値に調整することで雑菌の生育を抑制するこ とをち目的とする。  Each of the microorganisms has a water activity range in which it can grow. It cannot grow below a certain water activity, and the minimum water activity of many food poisoning bacteria is said to be 0.94 Aw or more. The inventor aims to suppress the growth of various bacteria by adjusting the water activity of the food material to an appropriate value.

When the number of viable bacteria was measured every time, as shown in Table 3, both bacterial and chilled storage showed no increase in germs as a result of a month-long bacterial test.

[0036] (水分活性の調整) [0036] (Adjustment of water activity)

水分活性の調整は、食材ごとに脱水時間を調整することで行うことができる。例えば 、ェビ Zニンジン Zブタウデュクにおいては、脱水時間と水分活性に以下の表 4〜6 の相関関係がある。  The water activity can be adjusted by adjusting the dehydration time for each food material. For example, in shrimp Z carrot Z butauduk, the dehydration time and water activity have the correlation shown in Tables 4-6 below.

表 4は塩'糖溶液に浸漬したェビにオイルを媒体として真空下脱水を行った時の脱 水時間と水分活性値である。食塩 2.5%、塩ィ匕カリウム 2.5%、砂糖 20%を含む溶液に 、溶液:ェビ = 1 : 1の割合で 12時間浸漬した。  Table 4 shows the dewatering time and water activity values when dewatered in a vacuum using oil as a medium for shrimp immersed in a salt and sugar solution. It was immersed in a solution containing 2.5% sodium chloride, 2.5% potassium chloride and 20% sugar at a ratio of solution: shrimp = 1: 1 for 12 hours.

表 5は塩'糖溶液に浸漬したニンジンにオイルを媒体として真空下脱水を行った時 の脱水時間と水分活性値である。食塩 2.5%、塩ィ匕カリウム 2.5%、砂糖 20%を含む溶 液に、溶液:ニンジン = 1: 1の割合で 12時間浸漬した。  Table 5 shows the dehydration time and water activity values when carrots immersed in salt and sugar solutions were dehydrated under vacuum using oil as a medium. The sample was immersed in a solution containing 2.5% sodium chloride, 2.5% sodium chloride potassium, and 20% sugar at a ratio of solution: carrot = 1: 1 for 12 hours.

表 6は塩 '糖溶液に浸漬したブタウデュクにオイルを媒体として真空下脱水を行つ た時の脱水時間と水分活性値である。ブタウデュクに対して食塩 5%、塩ィ匕カリウム 5 %、砂糖 10%、燐酸水素カルシウム 1%を添加し、 12時間浸漬した。  Table 6 shows the dehydration time and water activity values when dewatering under vacuum using oil as a medium for swine dipped in salt sugar solution. 5% sodium chloride, 5% potassium salt, 10% sugar, and 1% calcium hydrogen phosphate were added to pork and dipped for 12 hours.

なお、一般的な野菜 (ニンジン含む)の場合には、浸漬時間は 2時間以上でほぼ平 衡状態となるが、作業性を考え、前夜に浸漬開始し、翌朝よりオイル脱水を行うという スケジュールで進めた結果、浸漬時間は 12時間となった。  In the case of general vegetables (including carrots), the soaking time will be almost equilibrated after 2 hours, but in consideration of workability, the soaking is started the night before and the oil is dehydrated the next morning. As a result, the immersion time was 12 hours.

[0049] (ニンジン 2mm厚) [0049] (Carrot 2mm thick)

新鮮な-ンジンの皮を剥き、 50mm X 20mm X 2mmの短冊切りとし、この-ンジン 500 gを塩ィ匕ナトリウム 35gと塩ィ匕カリウム 35gを溶かした水溶液 1000gを用いて 5°Cで 4時間 の浸漬処理を行った。その時の雑菌増殖を検査した結果が図 1であり、 12時間まで は雑菌が増殖することはなく安全に生産できることが確認された (なお、他の野菜に ついても、同様の浸漬を 25°Cで行う場合は 12時間後で 10倍程度増殖することが確認 されているため、長時間浸漬する場合は低温で行うか、常温以上の温度域で浸漬を 行う場合は短時間とする必要がある。 ) oブランチングを行い色素の劣化の原因となる 酵素の失活を行ったニンジン 50gを、 150gのキャノーラ油を用いて真空下でオイルを 媒体とした脱水(品温 70°C、 14分間処理)することで水分活性 0.756を持った実施例 3 の製品を得ることができた。このニンジン (湯戻し後)と凍結乾燥ニンジン (湯戻し後) 、ブランチングをしたニンジンと食感の比較を行った。使用機器はレオメーターを用 いた。その結果、本出願ニンジン (湯戻し後)とブランチングをしたニンジンはその波 形が似ており、食感が同じものであることが示唆された。それに対し、凍結乾燥-ンジ ン (湯戻し後)は、異なる波形であった(図 2)。  Peel fresh ginjin, cut into 50mm x 20mm x 2mm strips, and use 500g of ginjin in 1000g of aqueous solution of 35g salted sodium and 35g salted potassium for 4 hours at 5 ° C. The immersion treatment was performed. Fig. 1 shows the results of examining the growth of miscellaneous bacteria at that time, and it was confirmed that the miscellaneous bacteria did not grow and could be produced safely up to 12 hours. It has been confirmed that it grows about 10 times after 12 hours, so if it is immersed for a long time, it should be performed at a low temperature, or if it is immersed in a temperature range above room temperature, it needs to be a short time. O) Dehydration of carrot 50g after debranching and deactivation of the enzyme that caused the degradation of the pigment using 150g of canola oil in oil as a medium (product temperature 70 ° C, 14 minutes) The product of Example 3 having a water activity of 0.756 could be obtained. This carrot (after reconstitution with hot water), freeze-dried carrot (after reconstitution with hot water), and carrots with blanching were compared in texture. The equipment used was a rheometer. As a result, it was suggested that the carrot (after reconstitution with hot water) of this application and the carrot that had been blanched had similar waveforms and the same texture. In contrast, the freeze-dried engine (after reconstitution) had a different waveform (Figure 2).
