This invention belongs to the field of oil and
salt reduction technology in
food processing, and discloses a
Pickering emulsion with dual oral pH and
enzyme responses, its preparation, and its application in oil and
salt reduction. The
Pickering emulsion comprises an outer aqueous phase, an
oil phase, and an inner aqueous phase, homogenized by high-speed shearing. The outer aqueous phase is an
aqueous solution containing 0%-5%
sodium chloride and 2%-5% oxidized
starch-
gelatin nanoparticles; the
oil phase is a mixture of
edible oil and polyglycerol
ricinoleic acid ester; and the inner aqueous phase is a
sodium chloride aqueous solution with a
mass fraction of 2%-10%. The
emulsion constructed by this invention can release 90%-94% of
sodium ions in the
oral cavity. When added to sauces, it can reduce the amount of sodium
chloride added by 20% while maintaining the
perception of saltiness. Furthermore, while "reducing salt without reducing saltiness," it also has good oral
lubrication properties and can replace 14.7%-20% of the added oil, showing good application prospects in reducing oil in food
seasoning sauces.
