Comparative Example 1

Step 1, chicken was cut into strips with a thickness of 1 cm and then placed and grilled on the stainless-steel grill; the specific method was that solid alcohol blocks were used to ignite charcoal fire; after the open fire of all the charcoal was ended, the meat sample was put on the grill which is far away from the fire source by 5 cm; the meat was turned over every 2 min; when the grilling time was 12 min, the internal temperature of the sample was measured with a probe thermometer; when the internal temperature reached 75° C., the grilling was stopped; when the internal temperature did not reach 75° C., grilling was continued, until the internal temperature reached 75° C.; when the internal temperature reached 75° C., the surface temperature of charcoal fire at the moment was measured using an infrared thermometer, and the surface temperature of charcoal fire was kept to be 180˜220° C.


The meat used in all the above examples and comparative examples is the same raw chicken breast purchased in the same batch.


Experimental Data and Analysis

The contents of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in grilled chicken prepared in the above examples 1˜9 and comparative example 1 were measured: the measurement method of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons refers to GB 5009.265˜2016 method 1 National Food Safety Standard: Measurement Method of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Food.


Table 1 shows the contents of several polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the charcoal grilled chicken prepared by the above examples and comparative example. Table 2 shows variations of content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in different examples and comparative examples.


The generation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in grilled food is largely because of pyrolysis, oxidation and cyclization of oils and fats in the food system. In the open fire grilling process, the oil is leached from the meat and dripped onto the burning charcoal fire and wood. The smoke generated by combustion of oil and heat source adheres to the surface of the meat, which may cause considerable pollution. Therefore, antioxidant capacity and fatty acid composition (unsaturation degree) of grilling oil have a significant impact on the generation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in grilled meat. Compared to examples 1, 2 and 3, It is shown that under the condition that the amounts of edible oil are the same during the grilling process, different kinds of edible oils have significant influence on the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in charcoal grilled chicken. Compared to rapeseed oil in example 2 and soybean oil in example 3, sunflower seed oil in example 1 can significantly reduce the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in charcoal grilled chicken; compared to example 1 and comparative example 1, it can be seen that compared to comparative example 1 in which edible oil is not added, the use of sunflower seed oil in grilling process not only does not increase the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, but also effectively reduces the content of Benzo(b)fluoranthene. Therefore, the sunflower seed oil adopted in the disclosure can effectively control the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in charcoal grilled meat.


Compared to examples 3 and 4, it can be seen that on the premise of the same edible oil variety, the chicken is first soaked with the soaking solution of the disclosure in the process of grilling, which can significantly reduce the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the charcoal grilled meat.


Compared to examples 3 and 5, it can be seen that on the premise of the same edible oil variety, the sealed chicken is first treated with plasma in the process of grilling, which can significantly reduce the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the charcoal grilled meat.


Compared to examples 1 and 6 as well as examples 2 and 7, it can be seen that when edible oil uses sunflower seed oil or rapeseed oil, when the addition amount of sunflower seed oil or rapeseed oil is 50 mL/1000 g and 25 mL/1000 g, the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in charcoal grilled meat is not obviously affected. Considering the sensory flavor of charcoal grilled meat, it is proper that 50 mL edible oil is used for each 1000 g meat.
