Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to food processing technology, and particularly relates to a peanut tofu and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Tofu is a traditional soy product mainly made from soybeans, with a long history. When making tofu, soybeans are first soaked, ground, and filtered to obtain soymilk, and then a coagulant is added to make the protein in the soymilk coagulate, and finally it is formed into tofu. According to the texture, there are tender tofu and firm tofu. Tender tofu has a delicate texture, melts in the mouth, and has a high water content; firm tofu is relatively tough and has a lower water content.

[0003] Tofu is rich in nutrition and is an important source of high-quality plant protein. Its amino acid composition is close to human needs and is easy to digest and absorb. At the same time, it also contains various minerals such as calcium, iron, and magnesium, as well as bioactive ingredients such as soy isoflavones, and has health care effects such as reducing cholesterol and preventing osteoporosis.

[0004] Tofu plays an important role in Chinese food culture and is a common dish in home cooking. It can be made into classic dishes such as cold tofu and mapo tofu, and can also be incorporated into various soups. It is deeply loved by the public and has spread to all over the world.

[0005] Traditional tofu mostly uses soybeans as the single raw material, and there are limitations in taste and nutritional value. Although there have been attempts to add peanuts to prepare tofu in the prior art, there are generally problems such as inappropriate selection of coagulants, unreasonable ratios, easy looseness of the finished product, or excessive bean smell. The present invention solves the above problems by optimizing the raw material ratio and process flow. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a peanut tofu and a preparation method thereof to solve the above deficiencies in the prior art.

[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A peanut tofu and a preparation method thereof, the raw materials of which by weight include: 400 grams of soybeans, 100 grams of peanut kernels without seed coats, 10 grams of magnesium chloride, and water.

[0008] Further, the preparation method includes:

[0009] The preparation method includes:

[0013] S4. Grind the mixture containing soaked soybeans, soaked peanuts and water in S3 into a slurry containing residues;

[0014] S5. Filter the slurry containing residues in S4 through a filter cloth with a fineness of 100-140 meshes to obtain a mixed slurry;

[0015] S6. Put the mixed slurry in S5 into a pot and heat it to boiling. When boiling, skim off the foam on the surface of the boiling slurry, maintain the boiling time for 5 minutes, pause heating, and let the boiling slurry cool naturally to 75-95 °C;

[0016] S7. Add 10 grams of magnesium chloride to no less than 20 ml of water and stir until it is completely dissolved in water to obtain a magnesium chloride solution;

[0017] S8. Slowly pour the magnesium chloride solution in S7 into the slurry at 75-95 °C in S6, and stir synchronously to make the magnesium chloride solution and the slurry mix evenly, and let it stand for 15 minutes to form bean curd;

[0018] S9. Put the bean curd in S8 into a mold, wrap it with a wet cloth soaked in water, cover it with a heavy object on the top of the wet cloth soaked in water, and press for 20-30 minutes to obtain a tofu block;

[0019] S10. Remove the heavy object on the top of the tofu block in S9, separate the tofu block from the mold to obtain peanut tofu.

[0020] Further, cut the peanut tofu in S10 into pieces and store it in a refrigerator at 4 °C.

[0021] Further, the soybeans are Northeast soybeans.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, a kind of peanut tofu and its preparation method provided by the present invention synergistically supplement plant protein and unsaturated fatty acids through the ratio of 4:1 of peanuts to soybeans. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
