Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing cigarettes, in particular to a method for preparing peony flower cigarettes using peony flowers and peony seed oil as raw materials. Background Art

[0002] Peony is a famous flower of my country. It has been cultivated in my country for more than 1,500 years. Among them, peony seeds are the essence of peony plants. In addition to inheriting all the characteristics of peony itself, it has its own unique medicine and nutrition. Peony seeds are nuts protected by double layers of shell and seed shell, and have natural "brain gold" and "longevity" genes. Therefore, peony seed oil has high medicinal and edible value and is widely used in food, medicine, beverages, cosmetics and other fields. The content of unsaturated fatty acids in peony seed oil is more than 90%, and the content of polyunsaturated fatty acids - linolenic acid (belonging to the ω-3 series) is more than 40%, which is 140 times that of olive oil. The vegetable oil extracted from peony seeds is a unique woody nut oil in China. Because of its rich nutrition and uniqueness, and its medical and health care functions, it is called "the best oil in the world" by relevant experts.

[0003] Peony flowers are large, colorful, beautiful, magnificent, and luxurious. Since ancient times, the Chinese people have regarded peony as a "symbol of peace, happiness, and wealth." Peony flowers are not only ornamental and fragrant, but also rich in nutrients. They contain 13 kinds of amino acids, 8 of which are needed by the human body, and the content is relatively high. They have health care functions for the human body, are safe, and have no toxic side effects; Danfeng peony flowers have been approved as new food ingredients by the National Health and Family Planning Commission. Peony flowers mainly contain astragalus glycosides, as well as peony glycosides and daphne glycosides. They are bitter, light, and flat in nature and flavor; they belong to the liver meridian. Functions and indications: Activating blood circulation and regulating menstruation, mainly treating irregular menstruation in women and abdominal pain during menstruation. "Collection of Commonly Used Folk Herbs" records that it can regulate menstruation and activate blood circulation. "Sichuan Chinese Medicine Records" records that it can treat irregular menstruation and abdominal pain during menstruation in women.

[0004] At present, the deep processing and utilization of peony flowers are limited to adding peony petals directly to food after dehydration, or directly mixing them with tea leaves to prepare peony tea.

[0005] Cigarettes are a type of tobacco product that contains 69 types of carcinogens. China has long been accustomed to consuming cigarettes made from pure flue-cured tobacco leaves, which have an average tar content of 17.3mg-10mg per cigarette and also contain harmful ingredients such as nicotine, N-nitrosamine, and free radicals. In particular, more and more women are smoking nowadays. Women who smoke are 2.7 times more likely to suffer from infertility than non-smoking women, and the chance of women who smoke suffering from uterine cancer will also increase by 50%.

[0006] At present, there is an urgent need to develop an environmentally friendly cigarette that can reduce harmful substances in cigarettes and integrate peony elements, so that the peony cigarettes with Chinese characteristics can go to the world. The applicant has also applied for the trademark of Luoyang Red, making peony cigarettes an opportunity for China to connect with the world in the future.

[0007] The invention makes full use of the opportunity of my country's vigorous development of peony, extends and improves the production chain of peony deep processing, and makes the peony industry achieve value for money in the circular production chain from planting to deep processing. Summary of the invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the shortcomings of the above technical problems and provide a peony flower cigarette which uses peony flower as the main raw material and has a unique fragrance, is harmless and environmentally friendly.

[0009] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is that the preparation method of the peony flower cigarette is as follows: Step 1: First, let’s look at how to process the peony flower filaments. Accurate material selection: Choose high-quality peony flowers, which should be mature, free of insect spots and odor, and preferably from Luoyang; remove the stamens and separate the petals; Steaming peony flowers: boil pure water, put petals into the steamer, and shake them loose so that the steam can evenly act on each petal. The steaming time should be controlled within two minutes. After steaming, drain the petals with a sieve and keep the drained petals for later use. Place the drained petals in a ventilated place and let them dry naturally to remove excess moisture. Treatment of microbial agents: dissolve and activate lactic acid bacteria in warm water at 30-40℃, and when there are no particles, add purified water at a ratio of 1-5:1000 to prepare the microbial agent; spray the microbial agent evenly on the epidermis of peony flowers, and constantly turn the epidermis of peony flowers during spraying to avoid missing any; stop spraying when the peony flowers begin to drip; Fermentation: Place the petals treated with microbial agents in an environment with appropriate temperature and humidity for fermentation. The temperature should be controlled at around 25 degrees Celsius and the relative humidity should be between 50% and 70%. During the fermentation process, the peony flowers need to be turned over regularly to ensure uniform fermentation, which helps to avoid mold and uneven fermentation of the petals. The fermentation time is between 7 and 15 days. Drying: Dry the fermented petals at 50 degrees. Fragrance blending process: Evenly mix the peony seed oil into the fermented petals to ensure that each petal can absorb the peony seed oil; the petals blended with peony seed oil need to be sealed in a cold storage for a period of time to allow the fragrance to fully penetrate, and wait for 1-2 days for use; Step 2: Evenly mix the water controlled during steaming the peony flowers with the peony seed oil in a ratio of 100:2-10, soak the incense thread, gel stick or popping beads used for cigarette filters in the mixed solution for 5-10 hours, and then dry them to obtain the incense thread, gel stick or popping beads with peony elements, and set them aside; Step 3: Cut the peony petals prepared in step 1 into shreds using a shredder; mix them with shredded tobacco, with the mixing ratio of peony shreds to shredded tobacco being 100:0-90; add the incense thread, gel stick or popping bead with peony elements obtained in step 2 into the cigarette-making equipment, and then install the coil paper, mouthpiece and tipping paper to produce the peony flower cigarette.

[0010] The present invention treats peony flowers with microbial agents to remove some harmful substances and foreign tastes. The peony flowers treated by the method effectively improve the combustion performance, reduce the content of polysaccharides in the peony flowers, and improve the sensory quality of the peony flowers as tobacco.

[0011] The fibers in peony flowers are bonded by lignin. Due to the activation of lactic acid bacteria in 30°C warm water and the action of high temperature and high pressure steam, the crystallinity of cellulose increases, the degree of polymerization decreases, the hemicellulose is partially degraded, the lignin softens, the lateral connection strength decreases, and it even softens and becomes plastic. When the material filled with pressurized steam is suddenly decompressed, the gas in the pores expands dramatically, which can partially peel off the lignin and tear the raw material into fine fibers, so that the medicinal value of the peony flower is extracted to the surface and the taste is softer.

[0012] Since the petals treated with microbial agents are fermented, the lactic acid bacteria fermentation of peony petals improves the antioxidant activity of peony flowers; during the fermentation process, due to the participation of lactic acid bacteria in decomposition and metabolism, the content of phenolic substances, vitamins and other components in the peony petals increases, and the antioxidant capacity is enhanced; this is mainly due to the participation of lactic acid bacteria in the fermentation, which causes changes in the structure, composition and content of polyphenols and flavonoids in the peony petals.

[0013] The drying in step 2 obtains the incense thread, gel stick or bursting bead with peony element, which has the fragrance of peony flower and the lubrication of peony seed oil. When the cigarette is smoked, it is fragrant but not greasy, and the mouth is filled with the fragrance of flowers, the throat is not dry, and the mouth, tongue coating and throat are not irritated.

[0014] In step 1, do not cover the peony flowers when steaming them to avoid the peony flowers becoming too wet and affecting the taste. When steaming peony flowers, use purified water to boil instead of tap water. This is because the water should be controlled and retained for use in processing cigarette filters, incense threads, gel sticks or popping beads, so that no other minerals will be left after processing.

[0015] In step 1, the lactic acid bacteria is used as a microbial agent for anaerobic treatment, and the lactic acid bacteria agent should be activated before use, which can promote the chemical transformation and physical fluffy effect of substances in the peony flower epidermis.

[0016] During the steaming process, the grassy smell and irritation of the peony flowers will be reduced accordingly, making the peony flowers softer.

[0017] Peony seed oil is added during the perfume blending process. Since the unsaturated fatty acid content of peony seed oil is over 90%, it acts as a preservative. What is particularly valuable is that the content of polyunsaturated fatty acid - linolenic acid (belonging to the ω-3 series) exceeds 40%. The metabolites of ω-3 linolenic acid can dilate blood vessels and enhance vascular elasticity, thereby playing a role in lowering blood pressure.

[0018] The quality and taste of peony flowers are directly affected by the fermentation and flavoring process. Correct fermentation and proper flavoring can make the tobacco smoother and more unique in aroma, satisfying the taste needs of all smokers.

[0019] The invention is particularly good for women, because the peony flower mainly contains astragaloside, peony glycoside and daphne glycoside, which can promote blood circulation, regulate menstruation and relieve abdominal pain during menstruation.

[0020] The present invention can reduce the content of low-density fat in the blood, so that the brain and the heart are effectively protected. Its lipid-lowering pathway through the respiratory system is unmatched by any lipid-lowering drug. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
