Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of agricultural product processing, and in particular to a method for preparing anti-caking jujube powder. Background Art
[0002] Jujube is a plant of the genus Jujube of the family Rhamnaceae native to my country, and is widely planted in Shandong, Hebei, Xinjiang, Ningxia and other places. Jujube is sweet and sour, rich in flavor, rich in nutrients such as vitamins and minerals, as well as active functional components such as polysaccharides and flavonoids, and has high nutritional value. However, jujube is easy to lose water, soften, and become alcoholic after harvesting, and is not resistant to storage and transportation. Under the current situation of limited fresh food consumption, this greatly restricts the development of the jujube industry. Therefore, drying is the most important storage and processing method for jujube. Jujube powder is favored by young consumers because of its convenience in consumption and has broad market prospects. However, the excessive sugar content, especially monosaccharides, makes jujube powder easy to absorb moisture and agglomerate during storage, which seriously affects the stability of product quality. Therefore, the development of an anti-caking jujube powder is of great significance to the stability of jujube powder quality. Summary of the invention

[0043] The sugar content and moisture absorption rate of the red date powder obtained in the above embodiments and comparative examples were tested, and the test results were recorded in Table 1. The sweetness of each red date powder was manually tasted and judged, and the perception results were recorded in Table 1, wherein the sugar content was determined by high performance liquid chromatography, and the unit of sugar content was: mg / mL; the method for determining the moisture absorption rate was: accurately weigh 1g of red date powder in the inner chamber of a health dish, absorb 12mL of a saturated sodium chloride solution in the outer chamber, cover the frosted glass sheet coated with vaseline, and seal (relative humidity 75%). After precise weighing, place it at a constant temperature of 25±1℃ for 5 days, and weigh it at 6h, 12h, 24h, and 5d, respectively. The moisture absorption rate (%) = [(weight after moisture absorption-weight before moisture absorption) / weight before moisture absorption] × 100%.
[0044] By analyzing the data results in Table 1, comparing the test results of Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Example 17, it can be seen that the red date powder prepared by the method of the present invention has a significantly lower sugar content than the original red date powder, wherein the glucose content is reduced by 57.91%, and the moisture absorption rate is significantly reduced, and the anti-caking effect is significantly enhanced; by comparing the test data of Comparative Examples 14, 15, and 17, it can be seen that the moisture absorption rate of the red date powder can be reduced by extracting sugar from the red date with the aid of enzymatic hydrolysis and ultrasound, or by using the modified solution and the composite auxiliary agent in the present application to act on the red date powder in sequence, thereby reducing the amount of agglomeration; on this basis, by comparing the test results of Example 2 and Comparative Examples 1 to 10, it can be seen that the modified solution and the composite auxiliary agent play a vital role in reducing the moisture absorption rate of the red date powder. Only after being treated with the modified solution and the composite auxiliary agent can the moisture absorption rate of the red date powder be significantly reduced. However, any changes in the components of the modified solution or the composite auxiliary agent cannot significantly reduce the moisture absorption rate of the jujube powder, which is obvious. However, the two components act on the red date powder in turn to reduce the water absorption performance of the red date powder; comparing the test data of comparative examples 12 and 13, it can be seen that although the desugaring effect of the red date powder is worse, due to the effect of the modified solution and the composite auxiliary agent, it is obvious that the moisture absorption rate is also reduced relative to the original red date powder; the moisture absorption rate of comparative example 11 is higher than that of embodiment 2, because the method of the present invention is not adopted in the process of adding the composite auxiliary agent, resulting in its failure to work; the moisture absorption rate of comparative example 16 is higher than that of embodiment 2, because the added composite auxiliary agent is not prepared according to the preparation method of the composite auxiliary agent of the present invention, resulting in the failure of each component to fully play a role; moreover, the steviol glycoside in the composite auxiliary agent can also increase the sweetness of the red date powder, so that it maintains a good taste, whey protein and Lactobacillus paracasei can add more nutrients to the red date powder, making it more nutritious, so the red date powder prepared by the present invention is not only nutritious and has a good taste, but also has excellent anti-caking effect and more stable quality.
