Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a kind of plant protein beverage of Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K.Koch and its preparation method, belong to food processing technical field. BACKGROUND

[0002] Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K.Koch, also known as American hickory, thin shell hickory, is a high tree of Juglandaceae hickory. Carya illinoinensis kernel is rich in nutrients, delicious and sweet, rich in oil, protein, carbohydrates, various vitamins and minerals, of which the total amount of unsaturated fatty acids represented by oleic acid accounts for more than 90%. The rich unsaturated fatty acids make Carya illinoinensis have the effects of brain and intelligence, reducing cholesterol, reducing blood pressure, etc.

[0003] In recent years, with the improvement of people's living standards, plant protein beverages with the characteristics of zero cholesterol, high unsaturated fatty acids, high protein, environmental protection and friendship have gradually been favored by consumers, and have become an excellent substitute for whole dairy products. Carya illinoinensis rich in oil and protein is a good raw material for preparing plant protein beverages.

[0004] For example, Chinese invention patent CN 116671557 A discloses a preparation method of Carya illinoinensis plant protein beverage. The method is to grind Carya illinoinensis protein meal by wet ultrafine grinding, then to obtain Carya illinoinensis protein beverage by enzymolysis and blending. Chinese invention patent CN 116042306B discloses a preparation method of Carya illinoinensis oil and Carya illinoinensis protein beverage. The preparation of the Carya illinoinensis protein beverage is to obtain cake protein hydrolysate by protease enzymolysis of Carya illinoinensis cake meal, then to add thickening agent and sweetener to the hydrolysate, and then to obtain the Carya illinoinensis protein beverage by shearing, filtering, homogenizing, filling, degassing and sterilizing in sequence. The two kinds of Carya illinoinensis beverages are prepared from Carya illinoinensis meal after oil extraction, both of which adopt enzymolysis treatment to obtain kernel meal hydrolysate, and then add emulsifiers and thickening agents such as monoglyceride, diglyceride, sucrose fatty acid ester and xanthan gum to improve the stability of Carya illinoinensis beverage. However, the preparation of raw materials is complex, and the subsequent enzymolysis time needs more than 120 minutes, which limits its continuous production in industry. At the same time, the use of artificially synthesized emulsifiers and stabilizers to maintain the stability of the beverage during storage may have potential harm to human health in the long term.

[0005] Compared with Carya illinoinensis kernel meal after oil extraction, Carya illinoinensis kernel contains more abundant and complete nutrients, but also contains more oil, so the prepared beverage is more likely to precipitate and fat to float. If the conventional blending process is used, more emulsifiers and stabilizers are needed.

[0006] In addition, in the traditional process, the bingren fruits are mostly peeled by alkali, resulting in a serious loss of natural sweet flavor of the bingren fruits. With the upgrading of consumption and the driving of health needs, consumers are increasingly inclined to choose pure natural and additive-free foods with a "clean label".

[0007] Therefore, it is an urgent problem to provide a bingren fruit plant protein beverage with rich flavor and without the addition of artificial synthetic stabilizers and emulsifiers. SUMMARY

[0079] Comparative Example 5

[0080] A preparation method of a blueberry plant protein beverage, comprising the following steps:

[0081] (1) 1 kg of blueberry fresh fruit kernels was weighed, washed, and then taken out after being frozen at -20℃ for 12 h, placed at 25℃ for 50 min for thawing, and washed to remove the seed coat by a high-pressure water gun; then placed again at -20℃ for 12 h, placed again at 25℃ for 30 min for thawing, and washed to remove the seed coat by a high-pressure water gun;

[0083] Result analysis

[0084] The blueberry beverages prepared by Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-5 were subjected to performance determination, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0085] Table 1 is the performance of the blueberry milk of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-5

[0086]

[0087] Table 1 and Figure 1 respectively show the physicochemical properties, microscopic results and macroscopic state of the blueberry milk prepared by the examples and comparative examples. As can be seen from Table 1, the centrifugal precipitation rate of Example 1 is 1.82%, and the particle size increases from the initial 4.56 μm to 8.44 μm, Figure 1 Table 2 shows that the blueberry milk has no precipitation and oil after being stored for 6 months, and exhibits a good stable state. As can be seen from the laser confocal microscope pictures in Figure 1 Table 3, the blueberry milk droplets of Example 1 present regular circles and are uniformly dispersed in the field of view, and the droplet size slightly increases after storage. Compared with Example 1, the particle size change and stability of the comparative examples are poorer than those of Example 1.

[0088] In which, Comparative Example 1 is pure bingren fruit, showing poor storage stability, and the centrifugal precipitation rate is as high as 10.91%, Figure 1 It is shown that after storage, the sample has complete precipitation and oil floating phenomenon, indicating that single bingren fruit itself cannot form a stable beverage system; by adding a certain amount of soybean protein isolate (Comparative Example 2), the stability is obviously improved, but Figure 1 The appearance map shows that there is still obvious precipitation after storage, and the microscope picture shows that the bingren fruit emulsion droplet size has a more obvious increase after storage, indicating that only by adding soybean protein isolate cannot obtain a stable bingren fruit emulsion. For Comparative Example 3, the particle size of the sample after preparation is 30.67 μm, and the centrifugal precipitation rate is 6.00%. Figure 1 It is shown that after storage, no precipitation is observed, but there is obvious oil floating. The microstructure shows that the uniformly dispersed emulsion droplets after storage have obvious aggregation phenomenon, indicating that the stem juice of Dendrobium candidum alone has poor emulsification. For Comparative Example 4, Figure 1 It is shown that after storage, the sample has more obvious oil floating, the emulsion droplet size also obviously increases, and the centrifugal precipitation rate is still 4.54%. It is indicated that the heat induction treatment plays a very key role in the stability of the beverage. For Comparative Example 5, Figure 1 It is shown that after storage, the sample still has a little precipitation, the emulsion droplets exhibit aggregation behavior, and the size also increases.

[0089] Example 2

[0090] The difference from Example 1 is only that the grinding temperature of step (2) is 25℃, 50℃, 70℃ and 90℃ respectively, and other parameters and conditions are the same as those of Example 1.

[0091] Table 2 is the influence of different grinding temperatures on the stability of bingren fruit emulsion

[0092]

[0093] As can be seen from Table 2, the grinding temperature will obviously affect the centrifugal precipitation rate, particle size change and stability of the system, and the particle size of the sample with high-temperature beating increases very significantly, which is positively correlated with the temperature. This is because high-temperature beating will destroy the bingren fruit oil body, causing oil leakage, and during the storage process, these leaked oils are easy to aggregate with each other, thereby increasing the emulsion droplet size.

[0094] Example 3

[0095] The difference from Example 1 is only that the addition amount of soybean protein isolate in step (3) is 0.1%, 0.5%, 0.8%, 1.0% and 1.5% respectively, and other parameters and conditions are the same as those of Example 1.

[0096] Table 3: Effect of different amounts of soy protein isolate on the stability of the Blueberry milk

[0097] Sample Centrifugal precipitation rate Particle size before storage (μm) Particle size after storage (μm) Storage stability 0.1% 3.05% 7.88±0.32 22.87±0.29 A little precipitation and oil slick 0.3% (Example 1) 1.82% 4.56±0.12 8.44±0.15 No precipitation, no oil slick 0.5% 1.27% 3.08±0.08 5.43±0.07 No precipitation, no oil slick 0.8% 1.10% 2.76±0.05 5.32±0.05 No precipitation, no oil slick 1.0% 1.27% 2.95±0.07 6.32±0.04 No precipitation, no oil slick 1.5% 1.27% 3.21±0.08 5.63±0.10 No precipitation, no oil slick

[0098] As shown in Table 3, the centrifugal precipitation rate of the sample with 0.1% soy protein isolate was still 3.05%, the initial particle size was 7.88 μm, and the particle size increased to 22.87 μm after storage, and a small amount of precipitation occurred after storage, indicating that 0.1% was insufficient to fully stabilize the Blueberry milk. As the amount of addition increased, the particle size increased significantly decreased, and the storage stability improved significantly. However, it should be noted that too high an amount of soy protein isolate can cause a certain odor.

[0099] Example 4

[0100] The difference from Example 1 is that the amount of soy protein isolate added in step (3) is 0.5%, and the water bath heating time is adjusted to 2 min, 5 min, 15 min, 20 min, 30 min, and 60 min, respectively, and the other parameters and conditions are the same as in Example 1.

[0101] Table 4: Effect of heat induction time on the stability of the Blueberry milk

[0102]

[0103] As shown in Table 4, the centrifugal precipitation rates of the samples with 2 min and 5 min of heat induction were still 4.54% and 2.91%, respectively, the particle size increased significantly after storage, and a small amount of precipitation and oil floating occurred, when the heat induction time reached 10-30 min, the centrifugal precipitation rate of the Blueberry milk decreased significantly, the initial particle size decreased, and the size increased slightly after storage, showing good stability. However, when the heat induction time reached 60 min, the stability of the Blueberry milk became worse, with a centrifugal precipitation rate of 6.36%, indicating that the system stability was destroyed. Therefore, the heat induction time of soy protein isolate should be at least 10 min, but not more than 60 min.

[0104] Example 5

[0105] The difference from Example 1 is that the amount of soy protein isolate added in step (3) is 0.5%, and the water bath time is 20 min; the amount of Dendrobium candidum stem juice added in step (5) is 1%, 3%, 8%, 10%, and 15%, respectively; and the other parameters and conditions are the same as in Example 1.

[0106] Table 5: Effect of different amounts of Dendrobium candidum stem juice on the stability of the Blueberry milk

[0107] Sample Centrifugal precipitation rate Particle size before storage (μm) Particle size after storage (μm) Storage stability 1% 3.09% 2.12±0.05 20.49±0.11 Obvious precipitation 3% 1.96% 2.35±0.06 12.64±0.07 Light precipitation 5% 1.02% 2.12±0.05 4.55±0.04 No precipitation, no oil slick 8% 1.05% 2.34±0.05 4.11±0.04 No precipitation, no oil slick 10% 1.06% 2.01±0.07 4.23±0.05 No precipitation, no oil slick 15% 1.05% 2.21±0.08 4.63±0.10 No precipitation, no oil slick

[0108] As can be seen from Table 5, the addition amount of Dendrobium candidum fresh stem liquid has certain influence on particle size and stability. When the addition amount is 1%, the centrifugal precipitation rate is 3.09%, the initial particle size after storage is only 2.12 μm, the particle size after storage is significantly increased to 20.49 μm, and there is a little precipitation. With the increase of the addition amount, the centrifugal precipitation rate of the beverage after storage and the particle size after storage are significantly decreased, and the stability is increased. When the addition amount is more than 5%, the particle size change is relatively small. When the addition amount reaches 15%, the indicators of the beverage are good, but the beverage has poor sensory experience, and the viscosity of the system is too large.

[0109] Comparative Example 6

[0110] The difference from Example 1 is that the addition amount of soybean protein isolate in step (3) is 0.5%, and the water bath time is 20 min; the addition amount of polysaccharide slurry in step (5) is 5%, and the types of polysaccharides are: Dendrobium candidum pure polysaccharide, Dendrobium candidum fresh stem, fresh hawthorn fruit, fresh okra, and fresh yam. The Dendrobium candidum pure polysaccharide is first configured into a polysaccharide solution at a material-liquid ratio of 1:5 (w / v, g / mL), and the rest of the fresh samples are mixed with water at a material-liquid ratio of 1:5 (w / v, g / mL) for wet beating and filtering. The other parameters and conditions are the same as those of Example 1.

[0111] Table 6 Influence of different polysaccharides on the stability of the beverage

[0112] Sample Centrifugal precipitation rate Particle size before storage (μm) Particle size after storage (μm) Storage stability Dendrobium polysaccharide 1.98% 2.67±0.05 13.49±0.18 A little precipitation Fresh stem of Dendrobium 1.02% 2.12±0.05 4.55±0.04 No precipitation, no oil slick Fresh hawthorn fruit 3.11% 2.12±0.05 18.55±0.34 Obvious precipitation and oil slick Fresh okra 2.18% 2.34±0.10 16.11±0.15 A little precipitation Fresh yam 3.53% 2.55±0.07 25.23±0.54 Obvious precipitation and oil slick

[0113] As can be seen from Table 6, under the same process, the initial particle sizes of the samples are similar, but the centrifugal precipitation rates of the samples are obviously different, and the particle size changes also exhibit obvious differences. Among them, the effect of Dendrobium candidum fresh stem is the best, followed by commercial Dendrobium candidum polysaccharide, fresh okra, hawthorn, and yam.

[0114] The examples provided above are not intended to limit the scope covered by the present application, and the described steps are not intended to limit the execution order. Those skilled in the art can make obvious improvements to the present application in combination with existing common knowledge, which also falls within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present application.
