Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of food processing, and in particular relates to capillary suspension plastic fat and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Fats in food play a key role in enhancing or modifying flavor and texture, increasing the volume of batters and doughs, promoting layering and tenderization, providing satiety, transferring calories, and preventing sticking. These functions play a crucial role in imparting desirable food properties and attracting consumers. Liquid oils can lead to oil leakage and compromised textural properties in finished products. Natural fats contain a high concentration of saturated fatty acids (SFAs), which impart unique functional properties to foods. However, excessive SFA intake can lead to elevated blood cholesterol, triglycerides, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, which can subsequently cause arterial stenosis, atherosclerosis, and an increased risk of coronary heart disease. Considering production costs and the exceptional oxidative stability and fat-binding properties of solid lipids, researchers have proposed methods for converting liquid vegetable oils into solid fats, thereby producing plastic fats with desirable properties.

[0003] With the improvement of people's living standards and the development of the modern food industry, in order to meet the processing requirements for the texture quality of fat-containing foods, the proportion of plastic fats of plant or animal origin, such as margarine and shortening, in the edible oils consumed by people continues to increase. If liquid vegetable oils with high unsaturated fatty acid content are directly used to replace traditional vegetable plastic fats such as hydrogenated oils in large quantities or completely, the key performance indicators such as plasticity and hardness will be seriously reduced because the oil base loses the support of a large amount of solid fat. In order to make the performance of the oil base meet the requirements of the product, the texture of the unsaturated liquid vegetable oil or the system with it as the main component needs to be enhanced. Therefore, the food industry urgently needs to develop a new substitute for traditional plastic fats that can not only have the structural and functional characteristics of traditional plastic fats, but also improve the fatty acid composition in the diet.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments so that those skilled in the art can understand the present invention more clearly.

[0020] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a capillary suspension plastic fat comprising octenylsuccinate-modified starch, edible oil and water.

[0021] The invention forms capillary suspension plastic fat by using octenylsuccinic acid modified starch, edible oil and water. The octenylsuccinic acid modified starch has good hydrophilicity and lipophilicity and can improve the stability of the capillary suspension plastic fat.

[0022] It should be noted that the viscosity of edible oil is increased and shaped by the combined action of water and octenylsuccinate-modified starch. By controlling the mass ratio of edible oil, water and octenylsuccinate-modified starch, the mechanical strength, stability and rheological properties of the capillary suspension plastic fat can be adjusted to form different forms such as fluid, soft solid and solid to meet different needs.

[0023] Furthermore, the mass ratio of the octenyl succinate-modified starch to the edible oil is (30-70):100, and the ratio of the mass of the water to the sum of the masses of the octenyl succinate-modified starch and the edible oil is (0.3-2.5):100. It should be noted that, denoting the mass of the water as a and the sum of the masses of the octenyl succinate-modified starch and the edible oil as b, the ratio a:b = (0.3-2.5):100 is obtained.

[0024] Furthermore, the edible oil includes sunflower oil.

[0025] Furthermore, the water includes distilled water.

[0026] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing the capillary suspension plastic fat, comprising the following steps: S1, mixing the octenylsuccinic acid modified starch with the edible oil to obtain an oil dispersion; S2. Mixing the oil dispersion with water to obtain capillary suspension plastic fat.

[0027] The above method is used to construct a particle network structure to produce a stable capillary suspension plastic fat. The material is green and low-cost, the operation is simple, and it is suitable for industrial mass production.

[0028] It should be noted that the mass of the oil dispersion is the mass of the octenylsuccinate-modified starch and the edible oil and (b). The preparation process of the capillary suspension plastic fat can be carried out in a dry room temperature environment.

[0029] Furthermore, step S1 includes: Step S11, sieving the octenyl succinate-modified starch to obtain the octenyl succinate-modified starch granules; Step S12: adding the octenylsuccinate-modified starch particles into the edible oil, stirring and mixing to obtain an oil dispersion.

[0030] Before the octenyl succinate-modified starch is mixed with the edible oil, the octenyl succinate-modified starch is sieved to remove pseudo-agglomerates generated by electrostatic forces in the octenyl succinate-modified starch, thereby obtaining octenyl succinate-modified starch particles with a suitable particle size. The octenyl succinate-modified starch particles are then mixed with the edible oil to improve the uniformity of the resulting oil dispersion.

[0031] It should be noted that the octenyl succinate-modified starch can be fully squeezed during sieving; the octenyl succinate-modified starch granules obtained after sieving can be dried; the octenyl succinate-modified starch granules can be added slowly in batches, or can be added while stirring the edible oil; the edible oil can be first cleaned to obtain a bubble-free and clear oil liquid.

[0032] Furthermore, in step S11, the octenyl succinate modified starch is sieved through a sieve with a mesh number of 200. Octenyl succinate modified starch with a suitable particle size can be obtained by sieving through a 200-mesh sieve.

[0033] Furthermore, in step S12, the stirring speed is 500-1000 rpm, and the stirring time is 4 h.

[0034] Furthermore, step S2 includes: degassing the oil dispersion by ultrasonic vibration, then adding the water to the oil dispersion, stirring and mixing, and obtaining a capillary suspension plastic fat. Before adding water to the oil dispersion, degassing the oil dispersion by ultrasonic vibration can make the octenyl succinate modified starch particles more evenly dispersed in the oil dispersion, thereby improving the uniformity of the oil dispersion. It should be noted that the oil dispersion can be stirred while adding water. Furthermore, in step S12, the frequency of ultrasound is 40 kHz, and the time of ultrasound is 20 minutes.

[0035] Furthermore, in step S2, the stirring speed is 1000-2000 rpm, and the stirring time is 3 min.

Stir at 750 rpm for 4 h at room temperature (25 °C) to obtain an oil dispersion. The mass ratio of octenylsuccinic acid-modified starch granules to sunflower oil is 30:100. (3) The oil dispersion was degassed by ultrasonic vibration at a frequency of 40 kHz for 20 min at room temperature. Distilled water was added to the oil dispersion and vigorously stirred at a stirring speed of 1500 rpm for 3 min using a stirrer to obtain capillary suspension plastic fat; wherein the mass ratio of distilled water to oil dispersion was 0.3:100.
