Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of enzyme treatment, and in particular to a method for extending the shelf life of cooked cereal flour by adding a lipase system. Background Art

[0002] Cereals, especially whole grain flour, usually develop a rancid smell during the shelf life. The reason is that the fat in the cereals and their processed products is degraded. Under the action of catalytic factors such as metal ions and light, the enzyme system carried by the cereals themselves is activated and enzymatic and non-enzymatic reactions occur, which promotes fat degradation to hydrolysis and oxidation reactions, or a combination of the two reactions, such as fat hydrolysis reactions to produce free fatty acids (FFA), which serve as substrates for subsequent oxidation reactions. The results of fat hydrolysis reactions (hydrolysis odor) and reactions with oxygen (oxidation odor) both produce rancid odors. As a result, cereal foods are very easy to oxidize and become rancid during processing and storage, resulting in the generation of unpleasant odors and bitterness, poor taste, and reduced nutritional value. Therefore, most people believe that inhibiting the activity of lipase in cereals is the key to preventing and delaying the rancidity of cereal foods.

[0003] At present, the methods widely used in the food industry are steam enzyme inactivation or high temperature enzyme inactivation or exogenous addition of antioxidants. The first method is that after using superheated steam or microwaves, the enzyme cannot be completely inactivated, and there are still residual enzymes that continue to react, because the nature of lipase has a "lid theory" phenomenon ("lid theory": most lipases also have a movable structure-"lid". This "lid" will cover the active catalytic site in the "ring" when the lipase is not activated. After the lipase molecule is activated, this "lid" will open, allowing the substrate of the enzyme to bind to the "substrate binding position" of the enzyme molecule). The "lid" not only puts the enzyme system itself in a semi-dormant state, but also protects the enzyme from being destroyed, thereby making the enzyme inactivation effect poor; the second method is that the fat content contained in the background of grains is relatively low, and adding too little antioxidants will not achieve the antioxidant effect. Although adding too much has a certain effect, it is easy to cause the addition amount to exceed the provisions of GB 2760. In summary, these methods are not only time-consuming and energy-consuming, but also have poor working and sanitary conditions. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new method that can extend the shelf life of cooked grain flour. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a method for extending the shelf life of cooked cereal flour by adding lipase, so as to solve the problem that the shelf life extension effect of cooked cereal flour in the prior art is not ideal.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme: a method for extending the shelf life of cooked cereal powder by adding a lipase system, wherein the cereal system after crushing and pulping is treated with an enzyme mixture, and then dried and floured; the mixed enzyme is lipase 1, lipase 2, phospholipase A1, phospholipase C, phosphoinositide phospholipase C, and esterase mixed in a mass ratio of 3-7: 0.1-3: 0.1-3: 0.1-1: 0.1-1: 0.1-1, and the added amount of the mixed enzyme is 0.1-0.3% of the mass of the cereal system.

[0006] Preferably, as an improvement, the mixed enzyme is a mixture of lipase 1, lipoxygenase, phospholipase A1, phospholipase C, phosphoinositide phospholipase C, and esterase in a mass ratio of 4.5:1:0.85:1:1:1.

[0007] Preferably, as an improvement, the drying method is roller drying.

[0008] Preferably, as an improved condition for roller drying, the steam pressure is 0.2-0.5 MPa, the temperature is 140-180° C., the drum speed is 28-32 rpm, and the feed frequency is 10-50 Hz.

[0009] Preferably, as an improvement, in the pulverizing step, the grain size after pulverization is 60 to 100 meshes.

[0010] Preferably, as an improvement, the pulping process uses hot water at 65-75° C. to adjust the pulp according to a solid-liquid ratio of 1:0 to 1.8, and then grinds it with a colloid mill.

[0011] Preferably, as an improvement, a homogenization treatment is performed before the drying step, and mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acids are added to the system before homogenization, and the amount of mono- and di-glycerides added is 0.05-3%.

[0012] Preferably, as an improvement, the homogenization treatment conditions are a homogenization temperature of 45 to 75° C. and a homogenization time of 45 to 90 min.

[0013] The principle and advantage of this solution are: in actual application, the application of lipase in food is already relatively common at home and abroad, but most of them are used in the field of flavor improvement, such as: improving the flavor of oils and fats and improving and maintaining the elasticity of baked goods, improving the yield rate, and improving the dough. In this technical solution, during the research and development of cereal flour technology, the original intention of the inventor was to use enzymatic hydrolysis technology to improve the flavor and sensory quality of cereal flour products, but during the research and development stage, when investigating the indicators of the shelf life of cereal flour with lipase added, it was unexpectedly found that the shelf life of the enzyme-treated group was significantly extended. By conducting a reverse principle analysis of the above reasons, it was found that the addition of lipase system can accelerate the lipid substances in the grains through various reactions such as enzymatic hydrolysis to form volatilized substances. When the material is heated by roller drying and ripening process, it may undergo ester-oxygen reaction to form relatively smaller molecular substances with rancid smell, which evaporate with water vapor and escape from the cooked grain powder, or form more stable components with other substances such as protein, thereby reducing the fat content in the grains that is easily oxidized, fundamentally reducing the generation of rancid odor in the cooked grain powder during storage, thereby achieving the purpose of extending the shelf life.

[0014] During the technical research and development period, the optimization of the mixed enzyme system and the guarantee of the powder making effect are the difficulties of this technical solution. In this technical solution, the enzyme system meets the enzyme system requirements in GB2760. Lipase 1 is derived from Rhizopus chinensis, lipase 2 is derived from Aspergillus niger, phospholipase A1 is derived from Aspergillus oryzae, phospholipase C is derived from Bacillus licheniformis, phosphoinositide phospholipase C is derived from Bacillus licheniformis, and esterase is derived from Trichoderma reesei. In the process of exploring the best combination of complex enzyme systems, the inventors have tried different enzyme systems and different enzyme addition methods. The results showed that after adding a single enzyme system, some unpleasant odors may be easily produced due to the complexity of lipid substances in the grains. In order to ensure the effect of flour making, the inventors found that the early crushing particle size, pulping conditions and drying methods have a key influence on the flour making effect. The crushing particle size has a key influence on the release of grain enzyme activity, and too high pulping temperature will cause the grain flour to gelatinize and the viscosity of the system to increase, affecting the difficulty of later drying and the yield of flour making. The drying method directly affects the formation of cooked flour of grains with different flavor substances, and the crushing particle size, pulping conditions, and drying methods and conditions influence and restrict each other. Through repeated research and verification, a solution was finally obtained that not only ensures the product flavor and shelf life but also takes into account the flour making effect and the yield of grain flour.

[0015] In summary, the beneficial effects of the present technical solution are as follows: the present technical solution treats the grain flour with a mixed enzyme and combines it with a roller drying process, so that the obtained cooked grain flour not only has the wheat flavor of grains, but also optimizes the process parameters of the roller drying process to make the treated grain flour easy to prepare and have a delicate taste without being rough. Moreover, the shelf life of the cooked grain flour stored at room temperature is extended from 4 months to 12 months on the premise that the packaging is intact, which fully meets the requirements of food processing and is of great significance in the industry.
