The preparation method comprises the following steps: A, preparing an areca nut concentrated solution; B, preparing areca nut sauce; C, preparing food materials: C1, washing the food materials and then cutting the food materials into blocks with the fiber length of 2cm to 6cm and the fiber width of 1cm to 3cm along the direction of food material fiber; C2, putting the cut block-shaped food materials into water with an added leavening agent and boiling; then heating and drying to prepare a fluffy dried product; D, seasoning the food materials; E, drying; F, shaping. According to the areca nut substituent prepared by the preparation method, the tissue fiber strength is very close to that of orginal areca nut fruits, so that the chewable property is ensured, and the flavor and mouthfeel of the orginal areca nut fruits are ensured; the effects of sweating and exciting are also sufficiently kept, and the areca nut substituent can be used as a substituent of the orginal areca nut fruit and products thereof, and has no damages, caused by traditional areca nuts, to oral cavities and teeth; the product has no residues after being eaten and is more environmentally friendly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of betel nut food, in particular to a betel nut substitute and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Betel nuts are widely eaten in Hunan, Hainan, and Taiwan regions of China. Seasoned dried betel nuts are mainly eaten in Hunan, and fresh betel nuts are eaten in Hainan and Taiwan regions. Betel nuts are mainly chewed, and chewers can feel obvious fever, sweating, and excitement. Due to the characteristics of betel nut itself and its chewing habits, betel nut fiber will cause physical damage to the oral cavity and teeth. In addition, when chewing, it is usually accompanied by irritating substances such as shell powder and menthol, which will aggravate the occurrence of this harm.

[0003] 中国专利CN200510031398、CN94110915、CN200810185496、CN96118282、CN96234925、CN200610000226、CN97108175、CN201010169928、CN200710010025、CN201310446786等专利分别将槟榔或其提取物,加或不加其他原料,与胶母基一起做成耐咀嚼的槟榔口香糖 , to a certain extent solve the damage to the oral cavity caused by betel nut fiber, but the products made by these patents have a taste similar to chewing gum, which is far from the chewing resistance of traditional betel nut, and the introduction of gum base is more environmentally friendly. unfavorable

However, these foods are not chewable, and their taste is very different from that of traditional betel nuts. It is difficult for eaters to feel the effects of heat and excitement.

[0005] The betel nut-flavored food produced by the existing patent has a relatively large difference between the tissue fiber and the original betel nut, and in the process of chewing, it will be chewed and swallowed quickly, so that the time to experience the taste of the betel nut is shorter
