Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of food technology, specifically relating to a special powder for frozen raw buns and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Steamed buns, a traditional Chinese fermented dough product, are favored by consumers for their rich fillings and delicious taste, compared to other products like mantou. For manufacturers, the variety of fillings and types of buns offers high added value. As one of the most important staple foods in Chinese people's lives, the market size for steamed buns is growing, and consumers' demands are also increasing. Traditional business methods and family-run or small-scale production can no longer meet market needs, and high labor costs and food safety issues have significantly limited their large-scale production and development.

[0003] Currently, most frozen fermented dough products sold in my country are pre-cooked dough, meaning they are steamed in a factory, then quick-frozen, packaged, and sold in supermarkets or chain restaurants. They are then steamed again before consumption. The disadvantages are that the taste and quality still differ significantly from fresh products. Furthermore, the double steaming process leads to high energy consumption, greatly increasing costs for chain restaurants. The larger size of these products also increases transportation costs. With advancements in frozen dough technology, steamed buns are rapidly developing towards frozen raw dough. Frozen raw steamed buns refer to buns that are quick-frozen directly after shaping without proofing or proofing without steaming. They are transported and stored under frozen conditions and can be steamed directly without thawing or after only a short proofing period. Frozen raw steamed buns are standardized, convenient, efficient, and have a fresh taste, fully meeting the needs of chain restaurant businesses. Currently, there is no special wheat flour on the market for making frozen raw buns. Frozen raw buns made with ordinary bun flour suffer from severe quality deterioration after freezing and storage, resulting in problems such as failure to rise, smaller volume, and poor taste. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a formula and preparation method for a special powder for frozen raw steamed buns. In this invention, three wheat raw materials (Zhengmai 9023, Jiangsu Red Wheat, and Australian Hard Wheat) were determined based on the quality and content of gluten protein in each type of wheat and blended in different proportions to obtain a base powder for frozen raw steamed buns. This powder can significantly extend the frozen storage time of frozen raw steamed buns without adding any improvers, resulting in frozen raw steamed buns with strong frost resistance, excellent quality (specific volume, texture, etc.), and good taste. Furthermore, by adding improvers and optimizing the production process of frozen raw steamed buns, the frost resistance, quality (specific volume, texture, etc.), and taste of the frozen raw steamed buns can be further enhanced.

[0005] The first objective of this invention is to provide a special wheat flour for frozen raw buns, which is composed of domestic wheat base flour and imported wheat base flour;

[0113] Analysis shows that:

[0114] (1) A comparative analysis of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2 shows that when the proportion of domestic wheat base flour exceeds 60% or is less than 40%, the specific volumes of fresh buns prepared by Comparative Example 1 (domestic wheat base flour proportion is 70%) and Comparative Example 2 (domestic wheat base flour proportion is 30%) are 1.96 mL / g and 1.94 mL / g, respectively, which are slightly lower than the specific volumes of the fresh samples of Examples 1-3. The differences in texture quality and sensory quality are also basically similar. However, as the freezing time is extended, the rate of quality deterioration of Comparative Examples 1-2 is significantly greater than that of Examples 1-3. The specific volumes of Examples 1-3 are 1.41-1.43 mL / g after 7 days of freezing, while the specific volumes of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 are 1.43 mL / g and 1.42 mL / g, respectively, after 4 days of freezing. Similarly, the rate of deterioration of texture quality and sensory quality of Comparative Examples 1-2 is also significantly greater than that of Examples 1-3. The above results indicate that only by adjusting the quality of domestic wheat base flour and imported wheat base flour to a specific ratio can the frozen raw buns produced have good quality and frozen storage stability, inhibit their quality deterioration during frozen storage, and ensure that frozen raw buns without any additives can still maintain good specific volume, texture quality and sensory quality after 7 days of frozen storage.

[0115] (2) Comparing Example 1 with Comparative Examples 3-6, it can be seen that if the domestic wheat base flour or imported wheat base flour is changed, see Comparative Examples 3-5 (replacing Jiangsu Red Wheat in domestic wheat with Yannong 19 or Zhengmai 9023 with Yannong 19 or Jiangsu Red Wheat with Jiangsu White Wheat) and Comparative Example 6 (replacing Australian Hard Wheat with Western Canada Hard Red Spring Wheat), the quality and frozen storage stability of the frozen raw buns will be significantly affected. The specific volume of fresh samples from Comparative Examples 3–6 was 1.90–1.92 mL / g, significantly lower than that of the fresh sample from Example 1 (2.01 mL / g). The specific volume of Comparative Example 3 after 4 days of frozen storage was 1.40 mL / g, and that of Comparative Examples 4–6 after 4 days of frozen storage was even lower than 1.40 mL / g. Furthermore, changing the domestic or imported wheat base flour significantly deteriorated the hardness and chewiness of the buns' texture, with the rate of deterioration being much faster than in Example 1 with prolonged frozen storage. Replacing the domestic or imported wheat base flour also had a similar deteriorating effect on the sensory quality of the frozen raw buns. These results indicate that the quality of frozen raw buns prepared from a mixture of wheat flours of different qualities can vary considerably, especially affecting their frozen storage stability.

[0116] (3) Comparative Example 7 is a frozen raw bun prepared using commercially available wheat flour. As shown in Table 1, the specific volume of fresh Comparative Example 7 is 1.99 mL / g, which is relatively similar to that of Example 1. However, during the freezing process, the specific volume of Comparative Example 7 deteriorated rapidly, reaching 1.52 mL / g after one day of freezing, which is significantly lower than the 1.62 mL / g of Example 1. The texture and sensory quality of fresh Comparative Example 7 are not significantly different from those of Example 1, but the rate of quality deterioration of Comparative Example 7 during freezing is much greater than that of Example 1. Therefore, it can be seen that the special powder for frozen raw buns prepared in this invention can produce frozen raw buns with better overall performance without the addition of any additives. It has better inventive effects than the prior art and has great commercial value and application prospects.

[0117] (4) The only difference between Comparative Example 8 and Example 1 is that the dough formed after kneading was not proofed. Comparative analysis of the quality changes shows that the specific volume of Comparative Example 8 (whether it is a fresh sample or a sample during frozen storage) is always smaller than that of Example 1. In addition, the textural and sensory quality of Example 1 is also significantly better than that of Comparative Example 8. It can be seen that whether the dough is fermented or not will significantly affect the quality of fresh buns and the frozen storage stability of frozen raw buns.

[0118] (5) Comparing Examples 1, 4-5 and Comparative Example 9, it can be seen that when the proofing time after shaping the buns is 17-23 min, the quality and frozen storage stability of the buns are both good, and they still have good specific volume, texture, and sensory quality after 7 days of frozen storage. When the proofing time after shaping the buns is extended to 30 min (Comparative Example 9), although the specific volume of the fresh sample is significantly increased (2.06 mL / g), its frozen storage stability is poor. After 4 days of frozen storage, its specific volume is less than 1.40 mL / g. During the frozen storage process, the rate of deterioration of the texture and sensory quality of Comparative Example 9 is much greater than that of Examples 1, 4-5. The above results indicate that the proofing time after shaping the frozen raw buns needs to be controlled within a certain range during the preparation process.

[0119] (6) Comparative Example 10 is a frozen raw bun prepared by adding a commercially available frozen raw dough improver (addition amount 1%). As can be seen from Table 1, the specific volume of Comparative Example 10 during frozen storage for 0 to 7 days is significantly greater than that of Example 1. As can be seen from Tables 2 to 5, the textural quality and sensory quality of Comparative Example 10 during frozen storage for 0 to 14 days are superior to those of Example 1. It can be seen that commercially available frozen raw dough improvers can indeed improve the quality and frozen storage stability of frozen raw buns to a certain extent. However, comparing Comparative Example 10 with Example 6, it can be seen that the specific volume, texture quality, and sensory quality of Example 6, both fresh and frozen, are significantly better than those of Comparative Example 10. The specific volume of Example 6 is still as high as 1.51 mL / g after 14 days of frozen storage. This shows that the additive in this invention has a significantly better effect on the quality and frozen storage stability of frozen raw buns than commercially available frozen raw dough improvers. At the same time, pre-mixing the additive into the flour during the flour production process can effectively reduce the operational difficulty in the bun making process, indicating that the special powder for frozen raw buns has good inventive effects and has great commercial value and application prospects.

[0120] The special powder for frozen raw buns prepared using the method of this invention can be optionally mixed with a compound improver. Without the addition of the compound improver, high-quality frozen raw buns can be produced, which can maintain good specific volume, texture and sensory quality even after 7 days of frozen storage. With the addition of the compound improver, the frozen storage time can be extended to more than 14 days.

[0121] It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications and changes can be made without departing from its scope. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
