Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of food processing technology, and in particular to a low-sugar osmanthus rice wine and a brewing process thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The low-sugar osmanthus rice wine is a low-alcohol and low-sugar traditional innovative fermented beverage prepared by fermenting glutinous rice as the main raw material and adding osmanthus flavor ingredients. The product retains the traditional rice wine mellow rice aroma and slightly inebriated taste, and meets the market demand for low-sugar, low-calorie, unique flavor and nutritional functional products in line with the modern healthy diet trend.

[0003] However, the traditional low-sugar osmanthus rice wine usually adds dry osmanthus or flavoring essence in the process of brewing. The former cannot fully release the aroma due to the barrier of osmanthus cell wall and the influence of fermentation environment, and the aroma dissipates quickly and lasts for a short time. The latter may introduce unnatural chemical flavor, which destroys the natural properties of the product. These technical limitations make it difficult for the existing osmanthus rice wine to achieve stable low-sugar and low-alcohol indexes and long-lasting natural osmanthus flavor at the same time.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a low-sugar osmanthus rice wine and a brewing process thereof. SUMMARY

This comparative example will not be repeated. Finally, osmanthus rice wine was obtained.

[0033] Performance test: Reducing sugar content determination: 1. According to the test standard of GB 5009.7-2016, 10 g of osmanthus rice wine was weighed, 80 mL of distilled water was added, 5 mL of zinc acetate solution and 5 mL of potassium ferrocyanide solution were added, and the mixture was shaken and stood for 30 min; 2. Filtered, about 20 mL of the initial filtrate was discarded, and the clear filtrate was collected as the test solution; 3. 50 mL of mixed Fehling's reagent A and B was added to the test solution, heated, and 0.5% wt% glucose standard solution was added dropwise until the blue color just faded, and the volume of the standard solution consumed (V) was recorded; 4. The reducing sugar content in the sample (calculated as glucose, g / 100 g) was calculated according to the formula: ; In the formula : the content of reducing sugar in the sample (calculated as glucose), unit: grams per hundred grams (g / 100 g); : the accurate concentration of the glucose standard solution, in milligrams per milliliter (mg / mL); : the average volume of the glucose standard solution consumed when titrating the sample solution, in milliliters (mL); : the total dilution factor of the sample solution; : the mass of the sample, in grams (g).

[0034] Alcohol content test: According to the test standard of GB 5009.225-2016, 100 mL of the osmanthus rice wine was taken, the relative density at 20℃ was determined using the density bottle method, and the alcohol content (%vol) was obtained by referring to the "Alcohol Concentration and Density Control Table".

[0035] Table 1: Test results of reducing sugar content and alcohol content

[0036] Sensory analysis: According to the test standard of GB / T 10220-2012, 10 evaluators were selected to taste 30 mL of the osmanthus rice wine, and scores were given from appearance, aroma, and taste, with a total score of 10 for each item. After removing the lowest and highest scores for each item, the average score of the remaining scores was recorded.

[0037] Table 2: Results of sensory analysis

[0038] Data analysis: From Tables 1-2, it can be seen that the low-sugar osmanthus rice wine prepared by the present application has better synergistic control ability of sugar and alcohol content, more intense osmanthus aroma, better balance of taste and overall acceptance.

[0039] Comparative Example 1, due to the replacement of low-sugar wine starter with common small starter, resulted in uncontrolled fermentation process, excessive sugar consumption, significant increase in alcohol content, and serious imbalance of flavor. The fundamental reason is that the microbial community of the ordinary small starter is not subjected to directional screening and compounding, and the activity of yeast is strong and the proportion is uncontrollable. During the fermentation process, a large amount of sugar is rapidly converted into alcohol, resulting in loss of sweetness, excessive alcohol taste, masking of osmanthus aroma, and destruction of sweet-sour balance and flavor coordination. The osmanthus flower aroma of Comparative Example 2 is released too fast, escapes seriously and has poor persistence because the microcapsules are replaced with an equal amount of fresh osmanthus flowers. The reason is that the flavor substances in fresh osmanthus flowers are not subjected to any stabilization treatment, and in the process of fermentation, microbial action and subsequent processing, the volatile aroma components are easily lost, oxidized or destroyed. The direct addition method cannot achieve slow release and long-term retention of flavor, resulting in that the initial floral aroma can be perceived but disappears in a moment, and a three-dimensional flavor experience with rich levels and long aftertaste cannot be formed, thereby lowering the overall sensory evaluation.

[0040] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the present application and the advantages of the present application. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present application is not limited to the above examples, and the above examples and descriptions in the specification are only to illustrate the principles of the present application. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, various changes and improvements can be made to the present application, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the claimed present application.
