AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, mixing sweet and savory ingredients can easily lead to flavor separation. The standardization of meat marinating processes is insufficient, and there is a lack of process optimization solutions for sweet, savory, fragrant, and sticky rice dumplings, resulting in uncoordinated taste and meat quality issues.
The process employs layered wrapping and high-pressure steaming, allowing the sweetness of the red dates to permeate and blend with the salty and savory flavor of the marinated meat during the pickling process. This, combined with the Maillard reaction, creates a complex aroma and optimizes the gelatinization of the glutinous rice and the tenderness of the meat.
It achieves a gradient fusion of sweet, savory, fragrant, and sticky flavors in zongzi, with tender meat and a harmonious taste, maintaining a complex aroma, and possessing high penetration rate and a good shelf life.

Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of food processing, more particularly to a sweet and salty glutinous flavor rice dumpling and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Traditional rice dumplings are mostly limited to single sweet taste (such as bean paste dumplings) or salty taste (such as meat dumplings), and although there are attempts to combine sweet and salty in the prior art (such as egg yolk and meat dumplings), there are the following defects: (1) The mixture of sweet ingredients (such as bean paste) and salty ingredients is prone to flavor separation, and the taste is not coordinated; (2) The process standardization of marinated meat is insufficient, resulting in dry or overly salty finished products; (3) There is a lack of a synergistic effect scheme for sweet and salty glutinous flavor through optimization of ingredient ratio and process.
[0003] There is a lack of rice dumpling products that perfectly combine the salty and sweet flavors of fresh pork and jujube on the market, and how to fill this market gap and provide consumers with a new taste experience has become a problem that needs to be solved by technical personnel in this field. SUMMARY
[0004] Therefore, the present application provides a rice dumpling with rich taste, sweet and salty glutinous flavor, and a simple and feasible preparation method, which meets the needs of consumers for innovative rice dumpling flavors.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application adopts the following technical solutions: A preparation method of a sweet and salty glutinous flavor rice dumpling, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Meat pretreatment After cutting the fresh meat into pieces, add salt, pepper powder, cardamom powder, white pepper powder and liquor and mix well, then low-temperature marinate for 18h; Step 2: Glutinous rice pretreatment Soak the glutinous rice in warm water containing salt for 2h, then drain the water and set aside; Step 3: Jujube pretreatment Wash and core the jujube and set aside; Step 4: Packaging Use rice leaves as wrapping material, package according to the structure of glutinous rice layer-meat layer-jujube layer-glutinous rice layer, and high-pressure steam cook for 1.5-2h after shaping.
[0006] Preferably, the meat in step 1 is pork, more preferably pork hind leg meat, cut into 20g pieces.
[0007] Preferably, the liquor in step 1 has an alcohol content of ≥53°, and the liquor is a clear liquor.
[0008] Preferably, the mass ratio of meat: salt: pepper: white pepper: Amomum tsao-ko powder: baijiu is 100:(5-8):(1-2):(1-2):(1-2):(4-6).
[0009] Preferably, the low temperature in step one is 4°C.
[0010] Preferably, the mass ratio of glutinous rice to salt in step two is 300:1, and the temperature of the warm water is 40°C.
[0011] Preferably, the mass ratio of glutinous rice: meat: red dates in step four is 6:2:1.
[0012] Preferably, the high pressure in step four is 0.07-0.1 MPa, and the cooking temperature is 115-120°C, so as to cause the oil in the meat and the sugar in the red dates to penetrate in both directions.
[0013] The application also provides a sweet and salty glutinous rice-flavored zongzi prepared by the method.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the application provides a sweet and salty glutinous rice-flavored zongzi and a preparation method thereof, which have the following beneficial effects: The technical scheme of the application forms a gradient fusion of the sweetness of the red dates and the salty flavor of the cured meat through penetration by means of the layered treatment in the wrapping process and the cooking process. The high-pressure cooking makes the gelatinization degree of the glutinous rice reach more than 85%, while the tenderness of the meat is maintained. In the pretreatment process of the raw materials, the application forms a composite aroma by means of the Maillard reaction generated by the curing process and the fruit aroma of the red dates.

[0021] Comparative example 2 The difference from example 2 is that: Step one: Marinating pork Take 1000g of fresh pork hind leg meat, cut it into 20g pieces, and add 30g of salt, 15g of pepper powder, 15g of white pepper powder, 15g of cardamom powder, and 30g of 38° strong-flavor baijiu.

[0022] Experimental example Effect detection of products I. Detection indicators and methods (1) Penetration rate of marinating liquid Use the weighing method: respectively weigh the total mass of the meat pieces before marinating m1, the total mass of the meat pieces after marinating and absorbing the surface marinating liquid m2, and record the total amount of marinating liquid added m. The penetration rate calculation formula is: Penetration rate = (m2-m1) / m x 100% (2) Tenderness of meat Use a texture analyzer to measure the shear force: take a piece of pork from the zongzi, and use a texture analyzer to test the shear force at a speed of 1mm / s. Record the shear force value (unit: N). The smaller the shear force, the more tender the meat.
[0023] (3) Degree of Maillard reaction Browning degree was determined by spectrophotometer: a sample of cured pork was homogenized, diluted and the absorbance was measured at a wavelength of 420 nm. The higher the absorbance, the more complete the Maillard reaction.
[0024] (4) Sensory evaluation Using a nine-point scale, 20 food professionals were invited to rate the food based on four dimensions: sweet and savory flavor, glutinous texture, meat texture, and complex aroma (out of 10 points). The average score was then taken. The scoring criteria are as follows: Sweet and salty fusion: 1-3 points indicate flavor separation, 4-6 points indicate basic fusion, and 7-10 points indicate gradient fusion and harmonious taste. Glutinous rice texture: 1-3 points for hard, 4-6 points for soft and moderately sticky, 7-10 points for soft, sticky and chewy; Meat texture: 1-3 points is dry / too salty, 4-6 points is average, 7-10 points is tender and juicy; Complex aroma: 1-3 points indicate a single aroma, 4-6 points indicate a light aroma, and 7-10 points indicate a rich blend of meat and date aromas.
[0025] (5) Microbiological and physicochemical indicators Total bacterial count: Tested according to GB 4789.2-2016 "National Food Safety Standard - Microbiological Examination of Food - Determination of Total Bacterial Count"; Moisture content: Tested according to GB 5009.3-2016 "National Food Safety Standard - Determination of Moisture in Food".

The shear force of the pork in Examples 1-4 is ≤30N, and the Maillard reaction absorbance is ≥0.87, indicating tender meat and a full Maillard reaction; the meat in Comparative Example 2 is dry (shear force 45.7N) due to improper salt and liquor ratio and excessively low steaming temperature, resulting in a significantly reduced Maillard reaction. The total sensory score of Examples 1-4 is ≥9 points, demonstrating excellent performance in sweet-salty fusion, glutinous rice texture, meat texture, and complex aroma; the sweet-salty flavor separation in Comparative Example 1 is due to the lack of a layered structure, while the scores in all dimensions of Comparative Example 2 are low due to defects in the process and formula. Examples 1-4 have a total bacterial count of <100 CFU / g and a moisture content of ≤60%, with a shelf life of more than 29 days at room temperature; Comparative Example 2, due to insufficient sterilization by cooking at normal pressure, has an excessive total bacterial count and a shelf life of only 15 days.
