Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of food processing, in particular to a method for removing fishy smell from spirulina without breaking its wall. Background Art
[0002] In terms of ecological protection and life health, microalgae have broad application prospects and are expected to become the "future food" of mankind. Spirulina, as a type of microalgae, is widely used in various foods and health foods. For example, common spirulina products on the market include capsules, tablets, beverages, nutritious rice and flour products, baked products, etc. However, the existing products have a strong fishy smell.
[0003] At present, most of the processing technologies for spirulina flavor are mainly focused on breaking the wall to remove the fishy smell, that is, releasing the fishy substances through the wall breaking technology and masking, embedding or reaction treatment. For example: in patent CN1943425B, the fishy smell is removed by using enzymatic hydrolysis-homogenization to break the wall and then inoculating yeast for fermentation; in patent CN106387615B, the fishy smell is removed by breaking the wall with colloid mill, enzymatic hydrolysis with cellulase and pectinase, and by reacting quercetin with the fishy substances; in patent 202210108704.5, the flavor substances in spirulina are reduced by mixing stevia leaves and potato mash with spirulina and ultrasound; in patent 99115106.2, the fishy smell is masked by mixing licorice, Panax notoginseng, honey and other substances with spirulina. The first three methods will crush the spirulina and cause the contents to dissolve. It is easy to oxidize during the processing, causing fatty acid rancidity and a decrease in the content of physiologically active ingredients. The deodorization technology is complex and the effect is average, making it difficult to use in actual production. The latter method is cumbersome and affects subsequent processing. In addition, deodorization through chemical reactions may produce unknown harmful substances. Summary of the invention

[0006] Preferably, in step S11, the fermented tea in the fermented tea powder is one or two of dark tea, black tea, oolong tea, green tea and scented tea.
[0007] Preferably, the fermented tea in the fermented tea powder is black tea.
[0008] Preferably, in step S11, the mesh number of the mesh sieve is 100, and the temperature during natural cooling is below 50°C.
[0009] Preferably, in step S13, the ratio of the fourth mass to the third mass is 15:1, the first mass is 20% of the third mass, and the second mass is 10% of the third mass.
[0010] Preferably, in step S13, during homogenization, the flux is 35 L / min, the pressure is 400 bar, the number of homogenizations is 3-6 times, and the temperature of the discharge port does not exceed 15°C.
[0011] Preferably, in step S14, the drying method is spray drying or freeze drying.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) Spirulina cells are not broken, retaining the complete structure and beneficial active substances of Spirulina; (2) There is no conversion of odorous substances into other substances, so it is safe; (3) No masking agents such as other fragrances are added, so the acceptance is high; (4) Compared with the flavor of spirulina itself and the current deodorized spirulina products, this method is more effective, with almost no fishy smell, better taste and no aftertaste; (5) The process is simple and the price is low.
