Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pickles, and in particular to natto pickles and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Pickles can be found all over the world, and their flavors vary from place to place. The production process of pickles is one of China's long and exquisite culinary heritage. Sichuan pickles belong to Sichuan cuisine, are traditional specialties, and are typical representatives of Chinese pickles. They are salty and sour, crisp and tender, bright in color, and fragrant. They can increase appetite, help digestion, stimulate the appetite, refresh the mind, sober up, and remove greasiness. They are suitable for people of all ages.

[0003] Natto, which originated in ancient China, has been produced since the Qin and Han Dynasties (221 BC - 220 AD). It is a soy product made from soybeans fermented by Bacillus subtilis. It is sticky, has a smelly odor and a slightly sweet taste. It not only retains the nutritional value of soybeans, is rich in vitamin K2, and improves the digestion and absorption rate of protein, but more importantly, the fermentation process produces a variety of physiologically active substances, which have the health benefits of dissolving fibrin in the body and other regulation of physiological functions.

[0004] At present, the main raw materials of Sichuan pickles are hard roots, stems, leaves and fruits, which taste crisp and refreshing, so they also have the problem of single taste. It is necessary to develop pickles with rich flavors to meet the needs of different groups of people, so as to expand the pickle market. Natto originated in China and became popular in Japan. Although it has high nutritional value, it has a peculiar smell (ammonia smell), strong bitterness and strong smell, so natto is not common on domestic tables.

[0005] If kimchi and natto can be combined, the salty and sour aroma of kimchi can cover up the peculiar smell of natto to a certain extent. The soft and glutinous texture of natto combined with kimchi can make the taste of kimchi richer and no longer monotonous, and the nutritional value of kimchi can be further improved. Summary of the invention

[0006] The invention aims to develop a natto kimchi which has a crisp and soft taste, little natto odor and high nutritional value and a preparation method thereof.
