Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of food deep processing, and in particular relates to a method for preparing an old starter for traditional fermented sourdough. Background Art

[0002] Steamed bread has a history of thousands of years in my country and is one of the traditional fermented staple foods in my country. At present, the starter for making steamed bread in my country is mainly commercially available high-activity yeast and traditional old dough starter. Among them, the traditional old dough starter is a natural starter formed by natural fermentation, continuous passage, enrichment, optimization of beneficial microorganisms in the ecosystem and expansion of cultivation. Therefore, the composition of the microbial flora in the old dough is diverse and complex, making the old dough steamed bread made with it richer and more special in flavor and taste than the steamed bread made with commercial yeast.

[0003] Old dough contains a variety of microbial communities, and the bacterial community structure is more complex than that of dough fermented with highly active yeast. During the storage and repeated use, the types and relative abundance of microorganisms in the dough are constantly changing. Due to the interaction between microorganisms, saccharification, protein decomposition, esterification and gas production reactions will occur in the dough. There are many types of yeast in old dough, among which Saccharomyces cerevisiae has a higher abundance, followed by Pichia anomala, Wickerhamomyces anomalus, Issatchenkia orientalis, Saccharomycopsis fibuligera, etc. Yeast can undergo esterification reactions through metabolism during dough fermentation, giving steamed bread a unique flavor and taste. In addition, the gas production ability of yeast during the fermentation process is crucial to the final quality of steamed bread, because the CO produced by yeast 2 and other metabolites will affect the rheological properties of the dough and the texture, volume and taste of steamed bread.

[0004] However, old dough is formed by natural fermentation, and the raw materials and processes are not fixed, resulting in complex and unstable microbial species, including many microorganisms and substances that have negative effects on flavor and quality, such as phytic acid, moldy or sour smells, etc. Therefore, the complex microbial species also reduce the safety of old dough steamed bread, making it difficult to control the safety, flavor and quality stability of steamed bread made by traditional old dough fermentation process.

[0005] Commercial yeast on the market has the characteristics of short fermentation time and stable fermentation quality, but due to its single strain, its flavor and mouthfeel are not as good as old-style steamed bread. Many studies have also pointed out that steamed bread fermented with old-style dough has better taste and flavor. A large number of studies have shown that yeast and lactic acid bacteria synergistically ferment dough, which helps to improve the rheological properties of dough and the texture and flavor of baked products. The nutrients that lactic acid bacteria and yeast can utilize are very similar, which can promote their growth and reproduction. The organic acids, extracellular polysaccharides, antibacterial substances and rich enzyme systems produced by the co-fermentation of the two promote biochemical changes in the gluten network and affect the granular structure of starch, thereby improving its nutritional properties and rheological properties, improving the ductility of the dough and generating metabolites related to flavor substances, giving the product a special aroma. The starter used in traditional old-style fermentation has a small output and unstable quality, making it difficult to form a scale advantage. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a traditional sourdough starter. The present invention utilizes the activity and culture characteristics of microorganisms to prepare the starter, which can not only ensure the fermentation activity but also improve the quality of the fermented dough and steamed bread.

[0007] The present invention provides a method for preparing a traditional fermented sourdough starter, which uses the following components in the following mass ratios:

[0008] 0.8-1.2 parts of original starter, 18-22 parts of culture medium, 18-22 parts of water.

[0009] The unit of this portion can be: gram, kilogram or other standard mass units.

[0010] The original starter mentioned is the old starter used for fermenting steamed buns or New Year's steamed buns locally.

[0011] The culture medium is prepared from the following raw materials in the following mass proportions: 10% barley flour, 15% corn flour, 55% wheat flour, 15% soybean flour and 5% Daqu.

[0012] First, the old starter is expanded and cultured, and the preparation steps are as follows: the culture components are first crushed and sieved according to the ingredient requirements, and then weighed according to the ingredient requirements, and then the required water (boiled and cooled) is added and fully stirred, and then the original starter is added to the above mixed ingredients under sterile conditions and stirred evenly.

[0013] The culture was carried out at 37°C and relative humidity of 85-90°C, and the number of viable bacteria and morphology were observed regularly.

[0014] The culture was terminated after 24 hours, and the fermented starter was then dried under constant temperature conditions.

[0015] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned old starter of traditional fermented sourdough, comprising the following steps:

[0016] (1) crushing and sieving the required components of each culture medium;

[0017] (2) Weigh and mix the various ingredients, then add water and stir into a paste;

[0018] (3) Adding the original old starter under relatively sterile conditions;

[0019] (4) Cultivate under constant temperature and humidity conditions and dry in the shade after cultivation.

[0020] In the above-mentioned preparation method, in step (1), the culture medium components are crushed and need to pass through an 80-mesh sieve.

[0021] In the above preparation method, the culture temperature may be 37° C., and the culture time may be 24 hours.

[0022] In the above preparation method, the temperature of the shade-dried starter can be 25-30°C, specifically 25°C, and the drying time can be 36-48h, specifically 36h or 48h.

[0023] The microbial composition of fermented old starter includes Saccharomyces kudriavirensis, Saccharomyces membranaceus, Pichia kluyveri, Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Pediococcus pentosaceus, Lactobacillus helveticus, and Enterococcus italicum, and the richness of microorganisms is higher than that of Angel Yeast (single yeast). The number and relative content of steamed bread flavors after fermentation are higher than those of Angel Yeast.

[0024] The present invention has the following advantages:

[0025] The present invention utilizes the original complex microbial community in the starter, combines the growth characteristics of yeast and lactic acid bacteria, expands and re-cultivates the starter, and can provide a starter with uniform and stable performance for the fermentation of traditional sourdough. At the same time, the present technology determines the basic culture medium composition and culture conditions, which can ensure the relative stability and consistency of the starter during the expansion and cultivation process, and can maximize the quality of the fermented dough and the final steamed bun.
