Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of food processing, and particularly relates to a method for preparing whole wheat germ milk. Background Art

[0002] Wheat germ contains rich protein, unsaturated fatty acids, vitamin E, vitamin B1, dietary fiber and essential amino acids for the human body, among which the lysine content of wheat germ is 6 to 7 times higher than that of rice and white flour, and is a highly nutritious natural food. Since wheat germ contains rich protein, it can be used as a plant protein raw material for the development of plant protein beverages to replace dairy products prepared from animal milk sources. In order to ensure a delicate and smooth taste, the existing wheat germ beverages have a slag removal process in the preparation process, which greatly loses the nutritional value of wheat germ and does not belong to the true whole wheat germ milk product. Patent CN201010524419.9 provides a method for preparing a wheat germ beverage, in which the particle size of the feed liquid reaches 200 to 300 meshes by fine grinding with a colloid mill, so that the slag removal process is not performed and the nutritional components of wheat germ are retained. However, the wheat germ protein beverage obtained in this way still contains a large amount of insoluble solids, which is not conducive to the stability of the product. The slag feeling of the beverage will also increase in the later storage period, and the wheat germ concentration in the wheat germ beverage is not high. Moreover, in order to ensure the taste of wheat germ milk, the existing process will add exogenous white sugar for flavoring during the preparation process, which is not friendly to some people.

[0143] The detection of maltose and glucose content refers to GB 5009.8-2016 National Food Safety Standard Determination of Fructose, Glucose, Sucrose, Maltose and Lactose in Food.

[0144] The stability test results of whole wheat germ milk of Example 1, Example 2, Comparative Example 4 and Comparative Example 5 are shown in Figure 1 , Figure 1 From left to right in the figure are the states of the whole wheat germ milk of Example 1, Example 2, Comparative Example 4 and Comparative Example 5 after standing at 4°C for 12 hours.

[0145] According to the above test results, Example 1 and Example 2 provide whole wheat germ milk with comprehensive nutrition, good taste and good stability. In addition, it was also found in the research and development that fresh wheat germ is very easy to absorb water and swell in water, and the high starch content makes it easy to gelatinize during processing, increasing the viscosity of the system and increasing the difficulty and time of later preparation. Although the amount of water can be increased during refining to reduce the viscosity of the system, or water can be added during preparation to reduce the difficulty of preparation, these operations all lead to a decrease in the concentration of the whole wheat germ milk product. In the refining process of Example 1 and Example 2, high-temperature α-amylase liquefies and enzymolyzes the material, effectively reducing the viscosity of the system, facilitating later preparation, and increasing the concentration of the prepared whole wheat germ milk. Example 1 and Example 2 can increase the refining concentration, improve production efficiency, and are suitable for large-scale industrial production.

[0146] Comparative Example 1 adopts conventional filtering and deslagging, resulting in serious loss of protein, vitamin E and lysine, and the nutritional value is significantly lower than that of whole wheat germ milk.

[0147] Comparative Example 2 did not undergo high-pressure microfluidization treatment, and the prepared whole wheat germ milk had a larger particle size and a rougher taste.

[0148] In Comparative Example 3, no glucoamylase was used in the enzymatic hydrolysis process, and the glucose content of the prepared whole wheat germ milk was significantly reduced, resulting in a lower sweetness of the product, and the tasters reported that the flavor was poor.

[0149] In Comparative Example 4, glutaminase was not used in the enzymatic hydrolysis process, and the stability of the prepared whole wheat germ milk was poor. After standing at 4° C. for 12 hours, serious oil-water stratification occurred.

[0150] In comparative example 5, during the later preparation process, the amount of potassium dihydrogen phosphate was increased and the amount of microcrystalline cellulose was reduced. The obtained wheat germ milk had poor stability and flocculent stratification occurred after being left to stand at 4° C. for 12 hours.

[0151] In the comparative example 6, medium-temperature amylase was used for enzymatic hydrolysis at 65°C during the early refining process, and the flavor was poor. The reason was mainly because the lipase in the fresh wheat germ was not completely inactivated, resulting in oxidation reaction of the wheat germ during the production process, and the taste of fat oxidation was serious.

[0152] Comparative Example 7 used alkaline protease during the enzymatic hydrolysis process, resulting in a very prominent bitter taste of the whole wheat germ milk, and the tasters reported that the flavor was poor.

[0153] The above detailed description of the present invention is intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand the contents of the present invention and implement them, but it does not limit the protection scope of the present invention. The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
