Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of development and utilization of natural products, and more particularly to yeast protein plant-based meat and its manufacturing method and application. [Background technology]
[0002] Although meat foods have always been popular with consumers, the high cost and high price of meat raw materials have limited production. Furthermore, meat products contain relatively high cholesterol, and excessive consumption increases the risk of people suffering from obesity-related diseases such as arteriosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and coronary heart disease. Compared with animal raw materials, plant raw materials are easy to obtain and have the advantages of being high in protein, low in fat, and cholesterol-free, which can effectively prevent the occurrence of chronic diseases such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, and diabetes. Long-term consumption can effectively strengthen the body's constitution and contribute to physical health. Therefore, plant-based meat products, especially soy protein-based plant-based meats, are rapidly developing.
[0003] Soy protein plant-based meat is a preferred plant-based food to replace animal protein, firstly, the price of plant-based meat is lower than that of real meat, and secondly, plant-based meat can meet the needs of people with high cholesterol who are not suitable for eating meat foods.However, compared with developed countries, plant-based meat products in China are very uniform, and with the improvement of people's living standards, traditional plant-based meat products cannot meet people's requirements for plant-based meat foods in terms of color, aroma, taste, nutrition, etc.
[0004] Patent Document 1 discloses a method for producing plant-based meat using soy protein concentrate and wheat protein, which includes the following steps (1) to (4): (1) crushing soybeans, defatting the resulting soybean flour three times with n-hexane at a ratio of 1:3 (w / v), and then placing it in a benton container to remove the n-hexane. The defatted soybean flour from which the n-hexane has been removed is mixed with water at a ratio of 1:10 (w / w), adjusting the pH to approximately 4.5, and then infusing the mixture in a thermostatic water bath at 50°C for 60 minutes with stirring. Centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 10 minutes. Ten volumes of water at 55°C are added to the insoluble matter, and the mixture is stirred uniformly and separated. This process is repeated twice to improve the yield of soy protein. The curd is dissolved, the pH is adjusted to 6.5, and the mixture is dried in a vacuum environment to obtain powdered soy protein concentrate. (2) The bran is added with caustic soda solution to adjust the pH to 8.5, thoroughly stirred for 1 hour, centrifuged, and the supernatant liquid is adjusted to pH 4 with hydrochloric acid. The mixture is then infused in a 90°C water bath for 10 minutes with stirring, and centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 10 minutes to obtain insoluble wheat protein. (3) Soybean protein concentrate powder and wheat protein are weighed in a ratio of 8:1 to 2:1 and mixed uniformly. Edible oil and protein are added in a total ratio of 10:1 to 0.6. Salt and other ingredients are added and mixed uniformly again. The raw materials are then fed into a stirring extruder, where the protein is heated and sheared at 150-170°C to obtain soybean wheat protein vegetable meat. (4) The resulting vegetable meat is fried at 120-130°C.
[0005] Patent Document 2 discloses a plant-based Harbin red intestine and a method for producing the same, which is produced using raw materials in the following mass proportions: 65-75 kg of dried plant-based meat block, 14-16 kg of non-transgenic soybean oil, 6-8 kg of pea powder, 6-8 kg of wheat protein isolate, 0.8-1.2 kg of salt, 1-2 kg of raw extract, 2.5-3.5 kg of xanthan gum, 3.5-4.5 kg of carrageenan, 13-15 kg of konjac powder, and 23-27 kg of ice water. The invention of plant-based Harbin red intestine was developed by experimenting with a large number of raw material blending ratios and processing processes to determine the final raw material composition and manufacturing method of the red intestine. The traditional red intestine ingredients are combined with gum and konjac powder, making it nutritious and chewy. It also uses a plant-based meat process to replace meat ingredients, perfectly combining the deliciousness of meat with the healthiness of plants. It does not cause hyperlipidemia and is characterized by low fat, high dietary fiber and low energy, which gives a stronger feeling of fullness, suppresses hunger, reduces food intake and is useful for natural dieting.

[0054] After the samples were prepared, they were subjected to sensory evaluation and texture detection, and the results are shown in Table 2. The specific procedures for the test are as follows: (1) The sensory evaluation method was conducted by seven experienced sensory evaluators who evaluated the plant-based cakes based on indicators such as meaty taste, meaty texture, raw bean smell, fresh taste, thickness, and overall texture. (2) Texture detection method: The vegetable cake was made into a cylindrical shape with a thickness of 10 mm and tested using a Shanghai Baosheng TA.XTC-20 texture analyzer. The TA / 36R cylindrical probe was used to perform the pressing test, with a force sensing element of 30 kg. Three parallel tests were conducted for each sample.
[0055] [Table 2]
[0056] Result analysis: (1) As can be seen from the sensory evaluation of Examples 1 to 14 and Comparative Examples 1 and 4, after the addition of the meat-flavored yeast extract, a rich meaty aroma was obtained, and the sensory evaluation comparison is shown in FIG. (2) As can be seen from the sensory evaluation and texture data of Examples 1 to 14 and Comparative Examples 2 and 3, after the addition of TG enzyme and press-swollen yeast protein yarn, the fibrous texture of the raw meat was apparent, and the elasticity and chewability were significantly improved. (3) Furthermore, as can be seen from the experimental results of Examples 1 to 14, 1) In Example 1, compared to Examples 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 10, the amounts of TG enzyme, meat-flavored yeast extract, and yeast protein yarn added were all below the preferred range, and when comparing the sensory results (almost no fibrous feel, relatively poor elasticity and chewiness, weak meaty taste, and strong raw bean smell), the texture data matched the sensory results. 2) In Example 7, the amounts of TG enzyme and yeast fibroin added are all higher than the optimum range compared to Examples 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 10, and when comparing the sensory results (relatively good fibrous feel, strong elasticity and chewiness, good meaty flavor, no raw bean smell), the texture data is not significantly different from Example 4. This shows that the amounts of TG enzyme and yeast protein added are higher than the maximum optimum range, but the effect on the structure is not significantly different, and from an economical standpoint, it is suggested that the optimum range of addition amounts is optimal. 3) In Example 9, the amount of TG enzyme added was too small compared to Example 8, and when comparing the sensory results (poor elasticity, strong chewiness, relatively good fibrous texture, weak raw bean smell, and good meaty taste), the texture data was the worst, which matched the sensory results and indicated that the TG enzyme contributed relatively much to the texture. 4) In Example 11, the amount of TG enzyme added was relatively high compared to Example 4, and when comparing the sensory results (relatively good fibrous feel, strong elasticity and chewiness, good meaty taste, and a slight raw bean smell), the texture was not significantly different from that of Example 4, indicating that the amount of TG enzyme added had little impact on the structure. 5) In Example 12, the amount of meat-flavored yeast extract added was relatively small compared to Example 8, and when comparing the sensory results (relatively good fibrous feel, good chewing sensation, poor meat taste, strong raw bean smell), the texture was not significantly different from the texture data for the other products with the same addition amount, but the raw bean smell was strong, indicating that the meat-flavored yeast extract contributed relatively significantly to removing the raw bean smell and improving the meat taste. 6) Example 13 contains a relatively large amount of meat-flavored yeast extract compared to Example 3, and when comparing the sensory results (relatively good fibrous texture, good chewiness, sufficient meaty flavor, and no raw bean odor), the texture data is not significantly different from other corresponding products with the same texture. The increase in meaty flavor is small, and furthermore, it shows that the meat-flavored yeast extract plays an important role in removing the raw soybean odor and improving the meaty flavor. 7) In Example 14, compared to Example 8, the amount of yeast protein thread added was relatively small, and when comparing the sensory results (lack of fibrous texture, good chewiness, sufficient meat flavor, no raw bean smell), the texture was significantly different, indicating that the yeast protein thread had a relatively large impact on the fibrous texture and chewiness, and that the small amount added resulted in poor chewiness and fibrous texture of the plant-based meat product. 8) Compared to Example 8, Example 5 had a relatively large amount of yeast protein added, and the sensory results (good fibrous texture, strong chewiness, good meaty flavor, no raw bean smell) were compared, but the increase in the chewiness and elasticity values of the overall texture was not significant, and rather it affected the texture to some extent.
