The invention relates to the field of
food processing, and discloses fermented beef jerky based on
glycosylation modification and fishy smell removal and a preparation method thereof.The preparation method comprises the steps that beef is pretreated and then mixed with
pickling materials, the mixture is tumbled and pickled and fermented at the same time, and then the fermented beef jerky is obtained through
air drying and baking, wherein the
pickling materials comprise salt,
sugar, spices, a flavoring agent and a compound
fermentation solution, the compound
fermentation solution comprises
lactobacillus curvatus,
pediococcus pentosaceus,
xylose glucococcus and
staphylococcus carnosus, the
fermentation temperature is 28-32 DEG C, and the fermentation time is 2-5h. According to the method, the beef is fermented by using the compound
flora, so that the fermentation time can be shortened, the growth of putrefying microorganisms can be inhibited, and the taste of the beef is improved. The possibility of
protein and fat corruption caused by endogenous corruption microorganisms is reduced, and the generation of toxic substances such as
nitrite and
nitrate is reduced, so that the safety of the quality of the dried beef product is improved. The
sugar used in the invention comprises
plant polysaccharide and
sugar substitute, and is subjected to
glycosylation reaction with the beef product to remove fishy smell and enhance
aroma. Spices such as lemons and citronella are also added into the
pickling materials, so that the
flavor of the beef jerky is further improved.
