Patent Application
20190208804
One or more embodiments of the present invention relate to a liquid condiment containing an ingredient such as a vegetable.
Various condiments in which vegetables are blended into liquid condiments are reported. For example, a method of blending vegetable particles into a liquid condiment with the viscosity and the stirred state adjusted, in order to provide a texture and savor of the vegetable particles to salad or meat (Patent Literature 1), a vegetable particle-containing liquid condiment obtained by heating vegetable particles and the like and a 5′-nucleotide with pure soy sauce to a certain product temperature in order to improve the taste of the 5′-nucleotide and the savor of grated garlic, grated Japanese radish, or the like (Patent Literature 2), a vegetable-containing acidic processed food in which vegetable vinegar obtained by subjecting a vegetable such as celery to acetic acid fermentation, vegetable pieces, and the like are blended (Patent Literature 3), and a vegetable piece-containing liquid condiment having a sugar, a polysaccharide thickener, and vegetable pieces of 0.5 mm or more and having a viscosity of 3,000 mPa·s or less (Patent Literature 4) are reported. However, for these vegetable-containing liquid condiments, attention is paid to the savors of the blended vegetables per se, but little attention is paid to changes in the savors of the liquid condiments per se.
Acetic acid contained in vinegar is effective for blood pressure reduction in hypertensives, visceral fat reduction in potentially obese people, and the like, and it is desired to positively take in vinegar. In addition, vinegar is known to have health functions such as calcium absorption promotion, recovery from fatigue, and appetite promotion, and a bacteriostatic effect providing food poisoning prevention and extension of storage life.
On the other hand, the boiling point of acetic acid is 118° C. and it volatilizes and dissipates in cooking such as roasting, stir-frying, and using a range.
In addition, liquid condiments such as sauces to which aroma components e.g., fruit juices and flavors are added are commercially available. But, when the above condiments are used for cooking, the aroma components volatilize, and cooked dishes cannot be sufficiently savored.
As described above, when liquid condiments in which vinegar and flavoring components such as fruit juices and flavors are blended are during cooking, the vinegar and the flavors volatilize, and cooked dishes may not be sufficiently savored, and the vinegar and the like may not be sufficiently taken in.
One or more embodiments of the present invention provide a solid ingredient-containing liquid condiment containing vinegar, a flavoring component, and a vegetable, in which even in cooking, the volatilization of the vinegar and the flavoring component is prevented, and a cooked dish can be well savored.
Accordingly, the present inventor has variously studied means for blending a vegetable, the shape of the vegetable, and the like and as a result found that by blending a vegetable serving as a solid ingredient in a dry state and swelling it in a condiment, and adjusting the size of the vegetable after the swelling in a certain range, a solid ingredient-containing liquid condiment is obtained in which vinegar and a flavoring component are retained in a vegetable, and even in cooking such as roasting or stir-frying, the volatilization of the above flavoring component is suppressed, and a cooked dish can be well savored. Thus, the present inventor has completed the one or more embodiments of the present invention.
Specifically, one or more embodiments of the present invention may provide the following [1] to [6].
[1] A solid ingredient-containing liquid condiment comprising an ingredient comprising a dried vegetable, and one or more selected from the group consisting of vinegar, a fruit juice, a flavoring oil, a flavor, and a spice extract, comprising the dried vegetable satisfying 1) to 3) in an amount of from 5 to 60% by mass in total after swelling based on an entire condiment,
1) the condiment comprises the dried vegetable having a size of 0.5 mm or more and less than 3 mm after swelling in an amount of from 0 to 30% by mass based on the entire condiment
2) the condiment comprises the dried vegetable having a size of 3 mm or more and less than 8 mm after swelling in an amount of from 0 to 60% by mass based on the entire condiment
3) the condiment comprises the dried vegetable having a size of 8 mm or more and less than 20 mm after swelling in an amount of from 0 to 30% by mass based on the entire condiment.
[2] The solid ingredient-containing liquid condiment according to [1], wherein an aspect ratio of the dried vegetable is in the range of from 1 to 10.
[3] The solid ingredient-containing liquid condiment according to [1] or [2], wherein the ingredient has a repose angle of 400<α<500 in a dry state, and the repose angle is obtained from “tan α=H/r” by measuring a height H (cm) which is a difference between a highest portion of a retaining edge for retaining the solid ingredient and a highest portion of a generally conical laminate having symmetry wherein the generally conical laminate is formed by an injection method on a fixed disk having a radius r (cm) and having the retaining edge.
[4] The solid ingredient-containing liquid condiment according to any of [1] to [3], wherein the dried vegetable is one or more dried vegetables selected from the group consisting of onion, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, carrot, spring onion, celery, and paprika.
[5] The solid ingredient-containing liquid condiment according to any of [1] to [4], wherein the flavor is an emulsion type flavor or an oil-soluble flavor.
[6] The solid ingredient-containing liquid condiment according to any of [1] to [5], wherein the liquid condiment is for cooking.
When the solid ingredient-containing liquid condiment of one or more embodiments of the present invention is used, vinegar and a flavoring component such as a lemon, ginger, or mustard savor can be further retained, and a cooked dish has a good savor even when the cooked dish is maintained at high temperature for a long time, or heated again by a cooking heater, microwaves, or the like after once getting cold.
The solid ingredient-containing liquid condiment of one or more embodiments of the present invention is a condiment comprising a solid ingredient comprising a dried vegetable, and one or more selected from the group consisting of vinegar, a fruit juice, a flavoring oil, a flavor, and a spice extract, and comprises the dried vegetable satisfying 1) to 3) in an amount of from 5 to 60% by mass in total after swelling based on the entire condiment.
1) the condiment comprises the dried vegetable having a size of 0.5 mm or more and less than 3 mm after swelling in an amount of from 0 to 30% by mass based on the entire condiment
2) the condiment comprises the dried vegetable having a size of 3 mm or more and less than 8 mm after swelling in an amount of from 0 to 60% by mass based on the entire condiment
3) the condiment comprises the dried vegetable having a size of 8 mm or more and less than 20 mm after swelling in an amount of from 0 to 30% by mass based on the entire condiment
The size of the dried solid ingredient is taken as the length of the longest width of the solid ingredient. (This is hereinafter described as long width.) This is represented by the average value of the lengths of the long widths of 50 solid ingredients obtained by measuring the length of long width (major axis) for the 50 solid ingredients.
The dried vegetable is included in the solid ingredient. When a raw vegetable is used instead of the dried vegetable, the savors of the vinegar and the flavoring component are not easily maintained after cooking. As the dried vegetable, dried vegetable pieces satisfying the conditions of 1) to 3) are used, and the amount of water in the dried vegetable pieces may be preferably 8% by mass or less, more preferably 6% by mass or less, and further preferably 5% by mass or less in terms of retaining larger amounts of the vinegar and the flavoring component even after cooking.
The dried vegetable may be one prepared by mixing with a sugar or immersion in a solution containing a sugar before drying. Specific examples of the sugar include glucose, fructose, sucrose, lactose, and starch decomposition products, and two or more may be used. The amount of the sugar added, the mixing time, and the concentration and the heating and mixing temperature and time in the case of immersion in the sugar solution, and the temperature and time of the following drying should be arbitrarily selected according to the type and size of the vegetable, and the like. The amount added in the case of mixing with the sugar may be preferably from 5 to 30% by mass based on the solid ingredient, the concentration of the sugar in the case of immersion in the solution may be preferably from 5 to 30% by mass, and the conditions of heating and mixing in the solution may be preferably from 50 to 80° C. and from 10 minutes to 12 hours.
The dried vegetable may be one obtained by heating and mixing a cut vegetable in a solution of a calcium salt and then drying it. The concentration of the calcium salt solution, the heating temperature, and the temperature and time of the following drying should be arbitrarily selected according to the type and size of the vegetable, and the like. Specifically, a cut vegetable should be stirred in an aqueous solution in which a calcium salt such as calcium chloride, calcium lactate, or calcium acetate is dissolved in water at 0.5 to 5% by mass, at 50 to 80° C. for 1 to 120 minutes, then separated from the treatment liquid, drained, and then dried at 65 to 80° C. for 3 to 12 hours. 5 To 30% by mass of a sugar such as glucose, fructose, sucrose, or lactose can also be contained in the above calcium aqueous solution.
A case where the shape of the dried vegetable piece is a granular shape compared with a flake shape and a needle shape may be preferred particularly in terms of the retention of the vinegar and the flavoring component after cooking. The aspect ratio of the dried vegetable piece is taken as the ratio between the shortest width (hereinafter described as short width) and the long width of the solid ingredient. This is represented by the average value for 50 solid ingredients obtained by measuring each of the length of long width (major axis) and the length of short width (minor axis) for the 50 solid ingredients and obtaining the ratio of the length of long width to the length of short width for each. The aspect ratio of the dried vegetable piece may be preferably in the range of from 1 to 20, more preferably in the range of from 1 to 10, and further preferably in the range of from 1 to 5. When the above aspect ratio of the dried vegetable piece is in the above range, the dried vegetable piece is more granular, and the flavoring component is easily retained inside the vegetable piece, and the savor retention is good.
In terms of the retention of the vinegar and the flavoring component after cooking, it may be preferred that the dried vegetable pieces have a repose angle α of 380<α<60°, and the repose angle is obtained from “tan α=H/r” by measuring a height H (cm) which is the difference between the highest portion of a retaining edge for retaining the solid ingredient and the highest portion of a generally conical laminate having symmetry wherein the generally conical laminate is formed by an injection method on a fixed disk having a radius r (cm) and having the retaining edge. In one or more embodiments, the repose angle is more preferably 400<α<550, further preferably 400<α<500.
The type of the dried vegetable is not particularly limited, but those to be eaten after heat-cooking may be preferred. Examples thereof include onion, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, carrot, green pepper, Japanese radish, Japanese radish leaves, beet, lotus root, burdock, spring onion, perilla, celery, parsley, paprika, tomato, cucumber, corn, cauliflower, eggplant, potato, sweet potato, taro, yam, and pumpkin. Among these, onion, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, carrot, spring onion, celery, and paprika may be preferred, and onion, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, and carrot may be more preferred. One or more of these dried vegetables can be used.
The dried vegetable pieces can be produced by cutting to a predetermined size followed by drying, or drying followed by cutting. Examples of the drying method include hot air drying, freeze drying, drying by heating under reduced pressure, microwave drying, sun drying, and natural drying.
In retaining the vinegar and the flavoring component even after cooking, it is important that the dried vegetable pieces satisfy the 1) to 3) and are contained in an amount of from 5 to 60% by mass in total after swelling based on the entire condiment.
1) the condiment contains the dried vegetable having a size of 0.5 mm or more and less than 3 mm after swelling in an amount of from 0 to 30% by mass based on the entire condiment
2) the condiment contains the dried vegetable having a size of 3 mm or more and less than 8 mm after swelling in an amount of from 0 to 60% by mass based on the entire condiment
3) the condiment contains the dried vegetable having a size of 8 mm or more and less than 20 mm after swelling in an amount of from 0 to 30% by mass based on the entire condiment
When the total content of the dried vegetable pieces is less than 5% by mass, the aroma rising (fragrance) after cooking is weak, and the retention of the savor is not sufficient. When the total content of the dried vegetable pieces is more than 60% by mass, the savor of the vegetable raw material is strong, and the balance of the savors is not sufficient, and the fluidity of the liquid condiment is poor, and the liquid condiment is difficult to remove.
In one or more embodiments, a preferred range of the total content is from 10 to 55% by mass, more preferably from 15 to 55% by mass, and further preferably from 20 to 55% by mass.
It is important that the above conditions of 1) to 3) be satisfied simultaneously with a total content of from 5 to 60% by mass. Thus, by using one or more of 1) to 3), a total content of 5% by mass or more is satisfied. Therefore, there is no case where all of 1) to 3) are 0% by mass.
In one or more embodiments, more preferred conditions are as follows.
