Moreover, the preparation method of the leek and egg flavor provided by the embodiment of the present invention is simple, and more importantly, all the raw materials are natural, and the obtained leek and egg flavor is also natural, with broad market prospects. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0014] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the following embodiments will help those skilled in the art to further understand the embodiments of the present invention, but do not limit the embodiments of the present invention in any form. It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the embodiments of the present invention. These all belong to the protection scope of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0015] The specific implementation of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0016] First of all, it should be noted that in the prior art, flavors are usually artificially blended mixtures containing two or more or even dozens of spices (sometimes also containing suitable solvents or carriers) with a certain aroma. According to their uses, they can be divided into three categories: daily flavors, edible flavors, and flavors for other purposes. In the food industry, edible flavors, as an indispensable food additive, are widely used to enhance the flavor and aroma of food to meet consumers' demand for diversified tastes. At present, the dosage forms of edible flavors on the market include liquid, powder, microcapsule, slurry, etc. Generally, edible flavors can be divided into: natural flavors, which are completely natural substances extracted from animals and plants (flavors) in nature by physical methods; equivalent natural flavors, which are obtained by chemical methods to treat natural raw materials or artificially synthesized chemical substances that are exactly the same as natural flavor substances; artificial synthetic flavors, which are substances obtained by chemical methods such as artificial synthesis and have not yet been confirmed to exist in nature; flavors prepared by microbial methods, which are obtained by microbial fermentation or enzymatic reaction; reactive flavors, which are obtained by heating proteins and reducing sugars to produce Maillard reaction. Since edible flavors refer to the aroma of natural foods, natural and natural equivalent flavors, synthetic flavors are carefully formulated to produce flavors with natural flavors, which are suitable for beverages, biscuits, cakes, frozen foods, candies, seasonings, dairy products, canned foods, wine and other food fields, and have broad application prospects.

[0017] Secondly, as a common and popular traditional food combination, leek and egg are loved by the public for their unique flavor. The main ingredients of leek and egg are leek and egg. Leek, also known as Qiyang grass, tastes sweet and spicy, is warm in nature, and has the effects of strengthening the stomach, refreshing, stopping sweat and consolidating, and nourishing the kidney and yang. Leek contains a variety of vitamins and cellulose, which have the effects of warming the kidney and nourishing the liver, promoting gastrointestinal motility, helping digestion, expelling toxins, and preventing constipation. Leek also has the effect of keeping warm for the human body, and can also disperse blood stasis, nourish the liver and kidney. It is suitable for people with cold hands and feet, cold lower abdomen, delayed menstruation, etc. The spicy taste of leek also has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and it also has certain effects on diseases such as trauma. Eggs are rich in high-quality protein, lecithin, vitamins and minerals, which help to enhance immunity, promote growth and development, and improve memory. Stir-frying leek and eggs together can not only give full play to the nutritional value of both, but also improve human metabolism, enhance resistance, and improve gastrointestinal function. In addition, scrambled eggs with leeks have the effects of lowering blood pressure, lowering blood lipids, and anti-oxidation, which are helpful in preventing cardiovascular diseases and delaying aging.

[0018] However, the natural leek and egg aroma components are complex and volatile, and usually need to be fried and eaten, and it is difficult to maintain its original flavor characteristics and aroma intensity during food processing. Therefore, developing a flavor that can simulate the real leek and egg aroma and has good stability has important market value and application prospects.

[0019] In order to solve the problem that the edible flavor products in the prior art cannot meet the demand of the food industry for leek and egg flavor, an embodiment of the present invention provides a leek and egg flavor, specifically a leek and egg flavor, which includes the following raw materials in parts by weight:

[0020] 30-80 parts of leek and egg enzymolysate, 1-5 parts of reducing sugar, 1-3 parts of amino acid, 0-15 parts of spices and 0-15 parts of flavor enhancer; wherein the leek and egg enzymolysate is prepared by mixing cooked leek and eggs with water and beating them into a slurry, heating the mixture to above 90°C after enzymolysis, maintaining the mixture for 10-15 minutes and then cooling the mixture.

[0021] The embodiment of the present invention adopts raw materials such as reducing sugar, amino acid, leek and egg enzymolysate, spices, etc., and utilizes Maillard reaction to prepare leek and egg flavor, which has a realistic leek and egg aroma, rich aroma, coordination and high stability, and can meet the demand of food industry for leek and egg flavor. It has important market value and application prospects as a flavor that can simulate the real leek and egg aroma and has good stability, and solves the problem that the existing edible flavor products cannot meet the demand of food industry for leek and egg flavor. Moreover, compared with cooked leek and egg (leek and egg aroma components are complex and volatile, usually need to be fried and eaten, and it is difficult to maintain its original flavor characteristics and aroma intensity during food processing), it can simulate the real leek and egg aroma and the flavor with good stability, meet the demand of food industry for leek and egg flavor, and have important market value and application prospects.

[0022] As another preferred embodiment of the embodiments of the present invention, the preparation method of the leek and egg enzymolysate is as follows: weigh 1 to 3 parts of cooked leek and eggs and 1 to 10 parts of water by weight, mix the cooked leek and eggs with water and beat into a slurry, add 0.1% to 0.3% of the first enzyme preparation for enzymolysis for 10 to 15 minutes, and then add 0.1% to 0.3% of the second enzyme preparation for enzymolysis for 15 to 60 minutes, heat the temperature to above 90°C after the enzymolysis is completed, maintain for 10 to 15 minutes, and then cool to room temperature to obtain the leek and egg enzymolysate.

[0023] As another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first enzyme preparation is an enzyme preparation for enzymatic hydrolysis of leek in leek eggs, specifically selected from one or two of pectinase and cellulase.

[0024] As another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the second enzyme preparation is an enzyme preparation for enzymatic hydrolysis of eggs in leek eggs, specifically selected from one or two of flavor protease and papain.

[0025] Further preferably, the preparation method of leek and egg enzymolysate is as follows:

[0026] Weigh 1-3 parts of cooked leek eggs and 1-10 parts of water, mix the leek eggs and water, beat them into a slurry with a food processor, pour the mixture into a reaction container, add 0.1%-0.3% of an enzyme preparation of leek in the enzymatically hydrolyzed leek eggs for enzymolysis for 10-15 minutes, then add 0.1%-0.3% of an enzyme preparation of eggs in the enzymatically hydrolyzed leek eggs for enzymolysis for 15-60 minutes, heat the mixture to above 90°C after the enzymolysis is completed, maintain the mixture for 10-15 minutes, then cool the mixture to room temperature, and refrigerate for later use.

[0027] Specifically, reducing sugars, amino acids, spices, flavor enhancers, etc. are all made from natural raw materials. For example, reducing sugars refer to sugars with reducing properties, referred to as reducing sugars, and natural reducing sugars are actually used. Among sugars, monosaccharides containing free aldehyde groups or ketone groups in the molecule and disaccharides containing free aldehyde groups are all reducing. Reducing sugars mainly include glucose, fructose, galactose, lactose, maltose, etc. As an important carbohydrate substance, they are widely present in natural foods such as fruits, vegetables, honey, nuts and dairy products. Among them, grapes, citrus, apples, pears and other fruits are rich in reducing sugars, such as glucose and fructose. In addition, natural sugars such as honey and maple syrup also contain reducing sugars.

[0028] Preferably, the reducing sugar, ie, natural reducing sugar, is selected from one or a mixture of two or more of glucose, xylose, lactose, maltose, fructose syrup, etc.

[0029] Preferably, the amino acid is a natural amino acid, specifically selected from one or a mixture of two or more of glycine, L-alanine, L-cysteine, L-arginine, L-proline, L-glutamic acid or L-methionine.

[0030] Preferably, the spice refers to a natural plant product with typical flavors such as fragrance and spiciness. In practice, natural spices are used, specifically selected from a mixture of one or more of onions, ginger, garlic, etc. Of course, other spices can also be selected as needed, for example: spices with a sense of heat and spiciness, such as chili, pepper, prickly ash, etc.; spices with spiciness, such as onion, leek, horseradish, etc.; aromatic spices, such as laurel, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, vanilla beans, nutmeg, etc.; vanilla spices, such as fennel, caraway (fennel), licorice, thyme, cumin, etc.; spices with coloring effects, such as turmeric, red pepper, saffron, etc. The specific selection is based on the needs, and it is not limited here, but only as a preferred embodiment.

[0031] Preferably, the flavor enhancer is made of other natural raw materials, specifically including any one or a mixture of two or more of soy sauce, HVP, MSG, I+G, yeast extract, etc.

[0032] As another preferred embodiment of the embodiment of the present invention, in the preparation method of the leek and egg enzymolyzate, the cooked leek and egg are usually prepared by cooking with leek and egg as the main raw materials. Specifically, reference can be made to the cooking method in the prior art, for example, 1 small handful of leek, 2 eggs, 1 teaspoon of cooking wine, 1 spoon of soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt as the ratio. Alternatively, 50-150 grams of fresh leek, 2 eggs, and appropriate amounts of raw oil and salt. It can also be 2 eggs, 50 grams of leek, 10 grams of dried shrimp, 15 grams of vegetable oil, 3 grams of minced ginger, 0.5 grams of salt, and 0.5 grams of monosodium glutamate. During cooking, leek and egg can be added at the same time, or leek and egg can be added separately. Among them, the method of adding leek and egg at the same time is first to wash and cut the leek into sections, and then stir the eggs evenly. After putting oil in the pot, pour in leek and egg liquid, add appropriate amount of salt and other seasonings, and fry until cooked. This simple cooking method not only preserves the nutrients of the ingredients, but also allows the spicy flavor of the leek to blend perfectly with the fragrance of the egg. Of course, you can also add the leek and egg separately. Specifically, pick and wash the leek, remove the roots, cut into small pieces, about 2 cm in length, and put them in a plate for later use; beat the eggs into a bowl, add an appropriate amount of salt, and stir thoroughly with chopsticks until the egg liquid is slightly bubbling; add an appropriate amount of vegetable oil to the pan, and add the chopped leek segments after the oil is hot; stir-fry over high heat until soft and fragrant, and stir-fry until the juice comes out. Push the fried leek to one side of the pan, or take it out and set aside (depending on the size of the pan); pour the stirred egg liquid on the other side of the pan. After one side of the egg liquid is set, use a spatula to turn it over and fry the other side, or use a spatula to mix the egg liquid and leek and stir-fry; after the egg is completely solidified and fully mixed with the leek, stir-fry a few times over high heat to ensure that the ingredients are evenly heated; adjust the amount of salt according to taste, and stir-fry evenly.

[0033] The embodiment of the present invention also provides a method for preparing leek and egg flavor, and the method for preparing leek and egg flavor specifically comprises the following steps:

[0034] The leek and egg enzymatic hydrolysate, reducing sugar, amino acid, spice and flavor enhancer are weighed in proportion, stirred and reacted at 90-110° C. for 1-4 hours, and the reaction liquid is filtered after cooling to obtain the leek and egg flavor.

[0035] As another preferred embodiment of the present invention, in the preparation method of the leek and egg flavor, the stirring reaction temperature is 98-103°C.

[0036] Preferably, the preparation method of the leek and egg flavor comprises the following steps:

[0037] Add 30-80 parts of leek and egg enzymatic hydrolysate, 1-5 parts of reducing sugar, 1-3 parts of amino acid, 0-15 parts of spices and 0-15 parts of flavor enhancer into a reaction container, then stir and react at a temperature of 98-103° C. for 1-4 hours. After cooling, pass the reaction liquid through a 40-mesh sieve to obtain leek and egg essence.

[0038] Wherein, the preparation method of leek and egg enzymolysate is as follows:

[0039] Weigh 1-3 parts of cooked leek eggs and 1-10 parts of water, mix the leek eggs and water, beat them into a slurry with a food processor, pour the mixture into a reaction container, add 0.1%-0.3% of an enzyme preparation of leek in the enzymatically hydrolyzed leek eggs for enzymolysis for 10-15 minutes, then add 0.1%-0.3% of an enzyme preparation of eggs in the enzymatically hydrolyzed leek eggs for enzymolysis for 15-60 minutes, heat the mixture to above 90°C after the enzymolysis is completed, maintain the mixture for 10-15 minutes, then cool the mixture to room temperature, and refrigerate for later use.

[0040] The embodiment of the present invention also provides a leek and egg flavor prepared by the above-mentioned preparation method of the leek and egg flavor, namely, the leek and egg flavor.

[0041] The embodiment of the present invention also provides an application of the above-mentioned leek and egg flavor in food processing, especially being suitable as a food additive in beverages, biscuits, cakes, frozen foods, candies, seasonings, dairy products, canned foods, wines and other food fields, to meet the demand of the food industry for leek and egg flavor.

[0107] Performance Testing

[0108] In order to further test the performance of the samples, the cooked leek and eggs in Example 1 are taken as Comparative Example 1, and the commercially available flavor product is taken as Comparative Example 2 (for example, the red date flavor water-soluble edible flavor produced by Zhejiang Haida Biotechnology Co., Ltd.). At the same time, the leek and egg flavor samples in Examples 1-3 are subjected to appearance morphology detection. Specifically, the flavors of Example 1, Example 2, Example 3, and Comparative Example 2 are placed in a culture dish and visually observed. When the culture dish is shaken, they all show good fluidity, and no sticking or agglomeration occurs.

[0109] In addition, in order to verify the flavor effects of different samples, the flavor was evaluated according to the method in the "National Food Safety Standard Food Flavors" (GB 30616-2020). The results of the flavor evaluation showed that the aroma of the leek and egg flavor samples in Examples 1-3 was natural and realistic, with a prominent characteristic aroma and a mellow and rich taste. Compared with the aroma of cooked leek and eggs, the aroma of the leek and egg flavor samples was natural and realistic, and its aroma could be felt for a long time, with good stability.

[0110] Next, in order to further test the stability, according to the method for determining the stability of the thousand-fold dilution in the "National Food Safety Standard for Food Flavors" (GB 30616-2020), a 72h test (arbitration method) is specifically used, in which the instruments and equipment include a 1000mL volumetric flask, a soda bottle, a capping machine, and a balance with an accuracy of 0.01g. The determination method is to weigh 1.0g of the stirred sample, 0g-200g of white sugar, 1.0g-1.6g of citric acid, and 100mL of distilled water, and heat to dissolve them all. After cooling, move it into a volumetric flask and dilute it to the scale with distilled water, which is a thousand-fold dilution. Take about 300mL of the thousand-fold dilution in a colorless and transparent soda bottle and seal it. Let it stand horizontally at room temperature for 72 hours, and observe that there should be no floating oil on the surface of the solution and no precipitation at the bottom. The results show that the flavors in Example 1, Example 2, Example 3 and Comparative Example 2 passed the 72-hour test, and there should be no floating oil on the surface of the solution and no precipitation on the bottom after standing for 72 hours.

[0111] In addition, as to the long-lasting stability of the aroma of the flavor samples, the leek and egg flavor samples in Example 1, Example 2, and Example 3 and the flavor of Comparative Example 2 were diluted to make 100-fold dilutions, respectively, and placed in a 70°C constant temperature box to destroy the aroma. Perfumers were invited to record the initial aroma as 100%, and the samples were placed in the constant temperature box for 2h, 5h, and 20h to test the aroma preservation amount. The specific test results are shown in Table 1.

[0114] It can be seen from the data in Table 1 that the leek and egg flavor prepared by the preparation method of the leek and egg flavor provided by the embodiment of the present invention uses reducing sugars, amino acids, leek and egg enzymatic hydrolysates, spices, etc. as raw materials and utilizes the effect of the Maillard reaction, so that the aroma of the leek and egg flavor is natural and realistic, the characteristic aroma is prominent, and the taste is mellow and rich. Compared with existing edible flavor products, it can simulate the real leek and egg aroma, and the aroma is long-lasting and stable.

[0115] In order to compare the stability effects of the samples in different embodiments, the amount of reducing sugar and amino acid in Example 1 was halved, and the corresponding prepared flavor sample was used as Comparative Example 3 to compare with the chive egg flavor sample in Examples 1-3. Specifically, 3 times the weight of dimethyl methylphosphonate was added for mixing to obtain a mixed solution, and a 2cm*2cm fabric (specifically a needle-punched non-woven fabric provided by Dongguan Zhuofang Industrial Co., Ltd.) was taken, and then the fabric was immersed in the mixed solution at 40°C for 30min, and then baked at 80°C for 2min to obtain a standard sample. The standard sample was placed in the same environment, rubbed to the same extent, and the remaining percentage of the flavor was measured after 20min. The specific results are shown in Table 2.

[0117] Group Remaining percentage after 20 minutes (%) Time required for the remaining 10% (h) Example 1 93 50 Example 2 91 49 Example 3 89 48 Comparative Example 3 82 42

[0118] As can be seen from the data in Table 2, the embodiment of the present invention utilizes raw materials such as reducing sugar, amino acid, leek and egg enzymolysate, spices, etc., and utilizes Maillard reaction to prepare leek and egg flavor, wherein, Maillard reaction is also called non-enzyme browning reaction, is a kind of non-enzyme browning widely present in food industry, is the reaction between carbonyl compound (reducing sugar) and amino compound (amino acid and protein), and finally generates brown or even black macromolecular substance melanoidin or pseudo-melanotin through complicated process, so it is also called carbonyl-amino reaction. It can be seen that after reducing sugar and amino acid dosage are halved, the Maillard reaction effect is reduced, and the stability effect of the prepared sample is also reduced, therefore, reducing sugar and amino acid of specific mass ratio are added to achieve excellent lasting fragrance effect. Selecting any one of reducing sugar and amino acid as molecular enhancement auxiliary agent, the lifting effect brought is limited.

[0119] According to the above results, it can be seen that the embodiment of the present invention utilizes reducing sugars, amino acids, leek and egg enzymolysates, spices and other raw materials, and utilizes Maillard reaction to prepare leek and egg flavor, by adding reducing sugars and amino acids of a specific mass ratio, and under mutual cooperation, the lasting fragrance effect is greatly improved, and the obtained leek and egg flavor has a natural and realistic aroma, a prominent characteristic aroma, and a mellow and rich taste. More importantly, all raw materials are natural, simple to make, and the obtained leek and egg flavor also has naturalness. Moreover, the preparation method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is simple and has broad market prospects.

[0120] It should be noted that the raw materials such as soy sauce, HVP, MSG, I+G, yeast extract, etc. in the present invention are all existing commercial products. For example, HVP is a hydrolyzed vegetable protein seasoning powder, and the specific product can be the Aipu acid hydrolyzed (soy) vegetable protein seasoning powder with the model of Kexing HVP-01 as a food flavor enhancer, or the Aipu hydrolyzed vegetable protein food grade flavor enhancer HVP of Qingdao Hezhan Biotechnology Co., Ltd., which can be selected according to the needs and is not limited here. I+G, also known as disodium nucleotide, is a new generation of nucleotide food flavor enhancer, which can be directly added to food to enhance the flavor. It is one of the main flavoring ingredients of instant noodle seasoning packets, condiments such as chicken essence, chicken powder and flavor-enhancing soy sauce; it is mixed with sodium glutamate (MSG) and its usage is about 2%-5% of MSG. Yeast extract is a product obtained by enzymatic autolysis (which can be separated and extracted) of food yeast as the main raw material, with the combined action of yeast's own enzymes or external food-grade enzymes. It is rich in soluble components in yeast cells such as amino acids, peptides, and polypeptides. It is a food category specified in GB2760 and GB14880-2012, and yeast extract is a food ingredient. The above are all conventional food additives, and they can be selected according to specific needs, so they will not be elaborated here.
