Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pre-prepared dish preparation, and in particular to a method for rapidly processing beef offal pre-prepared dishes by enzymatic tenderization and high-pressure stewing. Background Art

[0002] Beef contains a high level of animal protein (around 20.2%), far exceeding the protein content of eggs and milk. Beef protein is crucial for human growth, development, and physical fitness. Compared to other poultry, beef has a lower fat content (around 6.2%). It also contains minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, potassium, and iron, as well as vitamins such as vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin B, and vitamin B2, making it a healthy food ingredient. Because of its coarse muscle fibers, beef has a unique chewy texture or "tenderness" that differs from other meats like fish and pork. The unique flavor and texture of beef can be used to create a variety of prepared dishes. As a traditional delicacy with a distinct flavor, the development of prepared dishes for beef offal has attracted widespread attention.

[0003] However, existing beef offal processing technologies present numerous challenges. Traditional beef offal processing results in tough, unpalatable texture and low consumer acceptance. Conventional tenderization methods, such as prolonged soaking and marinating, are not only inefficient but also have limited tenderization effects. Furthermore, prolonged stewing times lead to low processing efficiency and increased energy consumption, making them difficult to meet the demands of industrial large-scale production. Furthermore, existing processing methods also have shortcomings in ensuring the flavor and nutritional content of beef offal.

[0004] Based on this, it is of great practical significance to provide a processing method that can achieve rapid tenderization and efficient stewing of beef offal while ensuring product quality. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the present invention proposes a rapid processing method for enzymatic tenderization and high-pressure stewing of beef offal pre-prepared dishes, aiming to solve the problems of poor tenderization effect and high processing energy consumption in the beef offal processing process in the current technology.

[0006] The present invention provides a method for rapidly processing beef offal prepared dishes by enzymatic tenderization and high-pressure stewing, comprising the following steps: Selecting fresh beef offal for pretreatment to obtain pretreated beef offal; Mixing the pretreated beef offal with an enzymatic hydrolysis solution to perform enzymatic hydrolysis and tenderization to obtain enzymatically hydrolyzed beef offal; Mixing the enzymatically hydrolyzed beef offal, water and seasonings, and stewing under high pressure to obtain cooked beef offal; vacuum-packing the cooked beef offal to obtain the beef offal pre-cooked dish; Among them, the enzymatic hydrolysate includes papain, bromelain, trypsin and neutral protease.

[0007] Preferably, the mass ratio of papain, bromelain, trypsin and neutral protease is 1-3:1-3:1-2:1-2.

[0008] Preferably, the mass concentration of the enzyme in the enzymatic hydrolysis solution is 0.5-1%.

[0009] Preferably, the pretreatment is specifically as follows: clean the fresh beef offal with water, then soak it in 0.5% baking soda solution and 0.2% citric acid solution in sequence, and finally clean it with water.

[0010] Preferably, the temperature of the enzymatic hydrolysis tenderization is 40-45° C., and the time is 30-50 minutes.

[0011] Preferably, the seasoning includes ginger slices, scallion segments, star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, salt, rock sugar and cooking wine.

[0012] Preferably, the mass ratio of the ginger slices, scallion segments, star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, salt, rock sugar and cooking wine is 10-15:20-25:5-10:1-2:2-4:15-20:5-8:3-5:5-10:10-15.

[0013] Preferably, the mass ratio of the enzymatically hydrolyzed beef offal, water and seasoning is 10:15-20:1.

[0014] Preferably, the parameters of the high-pressure stewing are: pressure of 0.1-0.3 MPa, temperature of 100-120° C., and time of 15-30 minutes.

[0015] The present invention also provides a prepared beef offal dish obtained by the enzymatic tenderization and high-pressure stewing rapid processing method of the prepared beef offal dish described in the above technical solution.

[0022] The words “include,” “including,” “have,” “contain,” etc. used in this document are open-ended terms, meaning including but not limited to.

[0023] The present invention provides a method for rapid processing of enzymatic tenderization and high-pressure stewing of prepared beef offal dishes, comprising the following steps: Selecting fresh beef offal for pretreatment to obtain pretreated beef offal; Mixing the pretreated beef offal with an enzymatic hydrolysis solution to perform enzymatic hydrolysis and tenderization to obtain enzymatically hydrolyzed beef offal; Mixing the enzymatically hydrolyzed beef offal, water and seasonings, and stewing under high pressure to obtain cooked beef offal; vacuum-packing the cooked beef offal to obtain the beef offal pre-cooked dish; Among them, the enzymatic hydrolysate includes papain, bromelain, trypsin and neutral protease.

[0024] Selecting fresh beef offal for pretreatment to obtain pretreated beef offal; In the present invention, the pretreatment is preferably as follows: the fresh beef offal is cleaned with water, then soaked in 0.5% baking soda solution and 0.2% citric acid solution in sequence, and finally cleaned with water.

[0025] Further preferred is: select fresh beef offal, wash it with clean water, remove impurities and blood on the surface of the beef offal, then cut it into blocks of appropriate size, soak it in 0.5% baking soda solution and 0.2% citric acid solution in turn, the soaking time is preferably 15 minutes, soaking the beef offal in alkaline solution baking soda solution can remove the fishy smell of the beef offal, soaking the beef offal in acidic solution citric acid solution can improve the color of the beef offal, finally use clean water to clean the acidic and alkaline solutions remaining on the surface of the beef offal, and store it for later use.

[0026] Mixing the pretreated beef offal with an enzymatic hydrolysis solution to perform enzymatic hydrolysis and tenderization to obtain enzymatically hydrolyzed beef offal; The invention mixes the pretreated beef offal with an enzymatic hydrolysate, completely immerses the beef offal in the enzymatic hydrolysate to perform enzymatic hydrolysis and tenderization treatment on the beef offal, decomposes protein and connective tissue in the beef, and achieves a tenderizing effect.

[0027] In the present invention, the mass ratio of papain, bromelain, trypsin and neutral protease is preferably 1-3:1-3:1-2:1-2, more preferably 2:2:1:1.

[0028] The enzymatic hydrolysate of the present invention includes multiple enzymes that work synergistically. Papain specifically cleaves peptide bonds at basic amino acid residues such as arginine and lysine, preferentially breaking down actin and collagen in muscle. Bromelain acts on peptide bonds composed of hydrophobic amino acids (such as phenylalanine and tyrosine), preferentially degrading elastin and connective tissue in muscle. Trypsin specifically cleaves peptide bonds at the carboxyl termini of arginine and lysine, primarily breaking down myosin and actin complexes in muscle. Neutral proteases nonspecifically hydrolyze proteins, preferentially acting on peptide bonds within peptide chains to generate medium- and short-chain peptides. By limiting the types of enzymes in the enzymatic hydrolysate, the present invention reduces the toughness of muscle fibers and makes the beef offal more tender and smooth.

[0029] In the present invention, the mass concentration of the enzyme in the enzymatic hydrolysis solution is preferably 0.5-1%, more preferably 0.8%.

[0030] In the present invention, the temperature of the enzymatic hydrolysis tenderization is preferably 40-45°C, more preferably 40°C; the time is preferably 30-50 minutes, more preferably 40 minutes.

[0031] Mixing the enzymatically hydrolyzed beef offal, water and seasonings, and stewing under high pressure to obtain cooked beef offal; The high-pressure stewing method of the present invention specifically involves mixing the seasoning with water, bringing it to a boil, and then placing the enzymatically hydrolyzed beef offal in boiling water. The process then proceeds to stew under high pressure, allowing the temperature in the pot to rise rapidly, increasing the efficiency by 3-5 times compared to normal-pressure stewing. The high temperature and high pressure rapidly soften the offal tissue fibers, while the resulting convection accelerates the penetration of seasoning molecules. This process increases salt permeability by 40% and umami content by 25%. The resulting product exhibits a unique texture: tender, chewy, and rich in flavor, without the fishy residue of traditional stewing. Furthermore, the present invention specifically defines the seasoning formula, giving the beef offal a unique flavor.

[0032] In the present invention, the seasoning preferably includes ginger slices, green onion segments, star anise, cinnamon bark, bay leaves, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, salt, rock sugar and cooking wine.

[0033] In the present invention, the mass ratio of the ginger slices, scallion segments, star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, salt, rock sugar and cooking wine is preferably 10-15:20-25:5-10:1-2:2-4:15-20:5-8:3-5:5-10:10-15, and more preferably 15:25:10:2:4:15:5:5:10:15.

[0034] In the present invention, the mass ratio of the enzymatically hydrolyzed beef offal, water and seasoning is preferably 10:15-20:1.

[0035] In the present invention, the parameters of the high-pressure stewing are preferably: pressure of 0.1-0.3 MPa, temperature of 100-120°C, and time of 15-30 minutes; more preferably, pressure of 0.2 MPa, temperature of 120°C, and time of 20 minutes.

[0036] Finally, the cooked beef offal is vacuum-packed to obtain the beef offal pre-cooked dish; The stewed beef offal is quickly cooled to room temperature to inhibit the growth and reproduction of microorganisms, and then packaged in a vacuum packaging manner. The present invention does not specifically limit the vacuum degree. Vacuum packaging can effectively isolate the air, prevent the unsaturated fatty acids in the beef offal from oxidizing and rancidifying, and avoid secondary contamination by microorganisms. Combined with cold chain transportation and low-temperature storage, the shelf life of the product can be significantly extended while maintaining the fresh taste and delicious flavor of the beef offal.
