Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a method for increasing the content of meat flavor substances in thiamine degradation products and the application of the degradation products, belonging to the field of food processing technology. Background Technology

[0002] Thiamine (vitamin B1) provides a meaty flavor and is therefore often used in the preparation of savory reactive flavorings. Thiamine is mainly available in the market as thiamine hydrochloride, priced between 300-500 Nm / kg. Because thiamine and its derivatives are primarily derived from chemical synthesis, their prices fluctuate significantly due to raw material and environmental requirements. As it is a crucial raw material in meat flavorings, it is often considered a significant factor influencing the cost of meat flavorings.

[0003] The degradation mechanism of thiamine is shown in Formula I. Pathway 1 involves the cleavage of the CN atom connected to the methylene bridge in the quaternary ammonium salt of thiamine, generating thiothiazole and pyrimidine compounds [Journal of Food Science, 1972, 37]. Pathway 2 involves ring-opening of the CN atom at position 2 of the thiazole in thiamine, removing the functional group attached to the sulfur atom, generating pyrimidine compounds and 5-hydroxy-3-mercapto-2-pentanone [Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences. 2008, 1126(1): 66-71; Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry. 1990, 38(3): 777-791]. The 5-mercaptopentanone compounds are highly reactive and can continue to react, forming the meat aroma compound 2-methyl-3-mercaptofuran, which can be further oxidized to bis(2-methyl-3-furanyl)disulfide. These two compounds are important meat aroma compounds and play a major role in the meat aroma effect of thiamine. The main compound produced by the degradation of thiamine is thiothiazole, with very little meat flavoring compounds generated. Although 2-methyl-3-mercaptofuran and bis(2-methyl-3-furanyl)disulfide are used in meat flavorings at the ppm level, even minute differences can alter the meat flavor. These two compounds are relatively expensive monomers, typically costing 3000-5000 yuan / kg. Therefore, if thiamine can be efficiently degraded to produce these two meat flavoring compounds, the value of thiamine can be significantly increased.

[0004]

[0005] In 1969, R.G. Arnold separated the products of thiamine hydrochloride heated at 100°C for 15 min in a phosphate buffer solution (pH = 6.7), obtaining the formation rules of hydrogen sulfide, 2-methylthiophene, 2-methylfuran, and 2-methyl-4,5-dihydrothiophene (J. Agr. Food Chem, 1969, 17, 390). In 1972, B.K. Dwivedi and R.G. Arnold further adjusted the pH of the thiamine hydrochloride solution to 5.0, 6.0, and 7.0 using NaOH or phosphate buffer solution, and carried out thiamine degradation under three reaction conditions: 1. heating at 100°C for 30 min in a sealed water bath; 2. heating at 100°C for 30 min in an air-water bath; 3. heating at 121°C for 30 min in an autoclave. Subsequently, they identified the degradation product, thiothiazole, and studied its formation rules (Journal of Food Science, 1972, 37, 689). In 1973, researchers studied the ratio of thiothiazole degradation products to total thiamine degradation products at different time points (15 min, 30 min, 120 min) by adjusting the pH of thiamine hydrochloride solution to 3.5, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, and 8.0 using phosphate buffer solution (Journal of Food Science, 1973, 37, 866). In the same year, BKDwivedi and RGARnold further investigated the formation of thiothiazole by adjusting the pH to 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, and 8.4 using NaOH, allowing the solution to stand for 2 hours, and then heating it at 120°C for 1 hour. They also analyzed the 2-acetyltetrahydrothiophene compound generated from thiamine degradation and summarized the thiophene compounds (Journal of Food Science, 1973, 38, 450). T.D. Morfee and B.J. Liska adjusted the pH of thiamine hydrochloride solutions to 5.9 and 7.4 using phosphate-buffered saline, followed by heating at 121°C for 40 min, and observed the formation of elemental sulfur (Journal of Dairy Science, 1972, 55, 123). In 1979, Joseph W. Bell et al. adjusted the pH of thiamine solutions to 6.60 using phosphate-citrate buffer and studied the effects of different reaction temperatures (70-90°C) and reactor materials on thiamine degradation. Their results showed that thiamine degradation mainly occurred in a homogeneous phase, with little effect from the reactor wall material (J. Agr. Food Chem., 1979, 27, 384).In 2018, Adrienne Voelker et al. studied the changes in thiamine hydrochloride and thiamine nitrate after 6 months of storage at 25, 40, 60, 70, and 80°C, explaining the results through the solubility, pH value, and corresponding activation energy of the two solutions (Food Research International, 2018, 112, 443). Additionally, in 2004, Xie Jianchun et al. identified 26 sulfur-containing compounds by heating a 1,2-propanediol solution of thiamine in a microwave oven on medium and high heat for 5 minutes. These included thiophene, thiazole, sulfur-substituted furans, aliphatic sulfur-containing compounds, and sulfur-containing carbonyl compounds. Among them, 2-methyl-3-furanthiol and 2-acetylthiophene compounds possessed characteristic structural units of meat-flavor compounds (Food Science, 2004, 25, 241).

[0006] Although scholars have studied the above reaction patterns, the reported methods for degrading thiamine by heating or adjusting pH (using NaOH solution or phosphate buffer solution) have only investigated the effects of specific pH values ​​on the main byproducts such as thiazoles and thiophenes. The effects on the formation of 2-methyl-3-mercaptofuran and bis(2-methyl-3-furanyl)disulfide have not been reported. Because the degradation process of thiamine involves competitive reactions, only by increasing the formation of these two meat flavor compounds—2-methyl-3-mercaptofuran and bis(2-methyl-3-furanyl)disulfide—can they play a more significant role in flavor production, reduce the cost of reactive flavors, and simultaneously improve the meaty texture of reactive flavors. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In view of this, one objective of the present invention is to provide a method for increasing the content of meat flavor compounds in thiamine degradation products, which has low production cost, high yield of meat flavor compounds, stable process, simple operation, and is suitable for large-scale preparation. A second objective of the present invention is to provide an application of thiamine degradation products. These products can be directly added as semi-finished raw materials to the reaction to prepare flavorings and enhance the meat flavor of the product. Alternatively, they can be extracted and separated by edible oil or caprylic / capric triglycerides to obtain a high-concentration meat flavoring oil. This flavoring oil avoids the influence of water-soluble bitter substances produced by thiamine degradation on the taste and can enhance the meat flavor when used in the reaction or flavoring products.

The edible oil includes sunflower oil, rapeseed oil, rice bran oil, corn oil, flaxseed oil, peanut oil, and soybean oil, etc.

[0023] An application of a meat-flavored seasoning oil, wherein the meat-flavored seasoning oil is used as a raw material for preparing meat flavoring.

[0024] Beneficial effects:

[0025] The method described in this invention can significantly increase the amount of meat flavor compounds generated during the degradation of thiamine.

[0149] Example 22:

[0150] A meat flavoring, based on the total mass of raw materials (100%), comprises the following components and their mass fractions: 10% hydrolyzed vegetable protein, 16% yeast powder, 3% Haitian brewed soy sauce, 30% salt, 1% xylose, 1% glucose, 3% white sugar, 20% monosodium glutamate, 1% disodium nucleotide (I+G), 0.6% ginger, 2% gluten, 1% high-gluten wheat, 1% modified starch, 0.1% gum arabic, 2.04% thiamine degradation products as described in Example 10, 2.04% sunflower seed oil, and 6.22% deionized water. 100g of the above raw material mixture is placed in a pressure cooker and reacted at 120°C for 1 hour to obtain the meat flavoring.

[0151] Example 23:

[0152] A meat flavoring, based on the total mass of raw materials (100%), comprises the following components and their mass fractions: 10% hydrolyzed vegetable protein, 16% yeast powder, 3% Haitian brewed soy sauce, 30% salt, 1% xylose, 1% glucose, 3% white sugar, 20% monosodium glutamate, 1% disodium nucleotide (I+G), 0.6% ginger powder, 2% maltose, 1% high-gluten wheat, 1% modified starch, 0.1% gum arabic, 2.04% meat flavoring oil as described in Example 10, and 8.26% water. 100g of the above raw material mixture is placed in a pressure cooker and reacted at 120°C for 1 hour to obtain the meat flavoring.

[0153] Sensory evaluation was used to assess the three flavorings obtained in Comparative Example 5, Example 22, and Example 23. Specifically, five professional evaluators evaluated and scored the sensory quality of the three flavorings on a scale of 0 to 10. The sensory evaluation score was the average of the scores from the five evaluators. The standard was the flavoring described in Comparative Example 5, with each index set to 5. If the aroma index was higher than that of the standard, the score was greater than 5; otherwise, it was less than 5. Sample preparation: 1g of the sample obtained in the comparative example or example was added to 99g of deionized water at 60°C for flavor evaluation. The specific results are shown in Table 1.

[0154] Table 1

[0155]

[0156] Note: Off-odors include the smell of hydrolyzed vegetable protein and yeast. Body and smoothness refer to the overall performance of the fragrance.

[0157] The sensory evaluation results in Table 1 show that in Comparative Example 5, the main aroma is a weak meaty aroma and a strong roasted aroma. The taste is characterized by prominent hydrolyzed vegetable protein and yeast notes, with a relatively strong bitterness. Overall, the aroma lacks richness and smoothness. In Example 22, the meaty aroma is prominent, the roasted aroma is weak, and the sweetness is stronger than in Comparative Example 5. The taste includes bitterness and yeast notes, and the overall aroma is relatively rich and smooth. In Example 23, the meaty aroma is strong, the roasted aroma is weak, and the sweetness is prominent. There is virtually no bitterness in the taste, a noticeable impact in the mouth, and slight yeast and hydrolyzed vegetable protein notes. The product is generally very rich and smooth. The comparison shows that in the three flavor preparation reactions, the equivalent amount of thiamine added is the same. Using thiamine-degraded meat flavor products or meat flavor seasoning oils can significantly enhance the meaty and sweet aromas in the reaction, reduce roasted aromas, off-flavors, and bitterness, and improve the overall richness and smoothness of the flavor.

[0158] Comparative Example 6:

[0159] A meat flavoring, based on the total mass of raw materials (100%), comprises the following components and their mass fractions: furanone 0.1%, methylcyclopentenolone (MCP) 1%, 2-methyl-3-mercaptofuran 3%, bis(2-methyl-3-mercaptofuran) disulfide 3%, 4-methyl-5-hydroxyethylthiazole 10%, anise oil 1%, 1,6-hexanedithiol 1%, and soybean oil 80.9%. The above raw materials are mixed to obtain a meat flavoring.

[0160] Example 24:

[0161] A meat flavoring, based on the total mass of raw materials (100%), comprises the following components and their mass fractions: 10% meat flavoring oil as described in Example 10, 0.1% furanone, 0.1% ethyl maltol, 1% methylcyclopentenolone (MCP), 0.5% 2-methyl-3-mercaptofuran, 0.5% bis(2-methyl-3-mercaptofuran) disulfide, 1% 4-methyl-5-hydroxyethylthiazole, 1% anise oil, 1% 1,6-hexanedithiol, and 84.8% soybean oil. The above raw materials are mixed to obtain a meat flavoring.

[0162] Sensory evaluation was used to assess the two flavorings obtained in Comparative Example 6 and Example 24. Specifically, five professional evaluators evaluated and scored the sensory quality of the three flavorings on a scale of 0 to 10. The sensory evaluation score was the average of the scores from the five evaluators. The standard was the flavoring described in Comparative Example 6, with each index set to 5. If the aroma index was higher than the standard, the score was greater than 5; otherwise, it was less than 5. Sample preparation: 0.1g of the sample was added to 100g of 60℃ deionized water for flavor evaluation. The specific results are shown in Table 2.

[0163] Table 2

[0164]

[0165] Note: Naturalness and fullness refer to the overall performance of the fragrance.

[0166] The sensory evaluation results in Table 2 show that the intensity of the meat and roasting aromas in Comparative Example 6 and Example 24 is not significantly different. However, Example 24 is relatively more mellow, full-bodied, and natural, with a sweetness. Furthermore, the amounts of 2-methyl-3-mercaptofuran and bis(2-methyl-3-mercaptofuran) disulfide in Example 24 are 16% of those in Comparative Example 6, and the amount of 4-methyl-5-hydroxyethylthiazole is only 10% of that in Comparative Example 6. This reduces the overall cost and results in a better meat flavor.

[0167] In summary, this invention provides a highly efficient method for promoting the degradation of thiamine into meat flavor compounds, and the simple extraction and separation process yields a richly flavored meat-flavored seasoning oil, which plays a significant role in reducing product costs and improving product quality, and also shows broad market prospects. The thiamine degradation products or high-concentration meat flavoring oil obtained by this invention can be directly used in the preparation of meat flavorings. Additionally, the meat flavoring oil can also be used directly as a flavoring base to enhance meat aroma and reduce costs.

[0168] In summary, the invention includes, but is not limited to, the above embodiments. Any equivalent substitutions or partial improvements made under the spirit and principles of this invention shall be considered to be within the protection scope of this invention.
