Description

本発明は、少量添加で、飲食品の風味や味質を損ねることなく塩味を強化することが可能な塩味強化剤、及び該塩味強化剤を用いた飲食品に関する。   The present invention relates to a salty taste enhancer that can be added in a small amount and can enhance the salty taste without impairing the flavor and taste of the food and drink, and to a food and drink using the salty taste enhancer.

食塩、即ち塩化ナトリウムを用いて調味される塩味は、飲食品の風味として極めて重要である。しかし、健康上の問題から、近年ではナトリウム含有量を低減させた減塩飲食品が好まれる傾向にある。   Salt, which is seasoned with sodium chloride, is extremely important as a flavor of food and drink. However, due to health problems, low-salt foods and drinks with a reduced sodium content have recently been preferred.

一方で、飲食品中の塩化ナトリウム含量を単に減じただけでは、ナトリウム摂取量は低減されるものの、同時に塩味強度や飲食品の風味や味質が低下する。その為、飲食品の風味を維持したまま、塩化ナトリウム含量を低減させることのできる方法が検討されてきた。この方法を大別すると、(1)塩化カリウムや有機酸金属塩等の塩化ナトリウム代替品を使用する方法と、(2)塩味強化剤を使用する方法の2つが挙げられる。   On the other hand, simply reducing the sodium chloride content in foods and drinks reduces the amount of sodium intake, but at the same time decreases the salty strength and the flavor and quality of foods and drinks. Therefore, methods that can reduce the sodium chloride content while maintaining the flavor of food and drink have been studied. This method is roughly classified into two methods: (1) a method using a sodium chloride substitute such as potassium chloride or an organic acid metal salt, and (2) a method using a salty taste enhancer.

塩味強化剤とは、それ自体は塩味を示さない又は極薄い塩味であるが、塩化ナトリウムに極少量添加することで、塩化ナトリウムの塩味を強く感じさせる効果を示すものであり、少ない塩化ナトリウム含量の飲食品であっても、より塩化ナトリウム含量の高い飲食品と同等の塩味をもたせることができるというものである。つまり、塩味強化剤を使用する方法は、塩味強化剤を添加し、塩化ナトリウムが持つ塩味を喫食時に強く感じさせる方法、即ち、含有される塩化ナトリウム量あたりの塩味強度を塩味強化剤によって増大させ、飲食品中の塩化ナトリウムの含有量を低減させる方法である。   The salty taste enhancer itself does not show a salty taste or a very thin salty taste, but when added in a very small amount to sodium chloride, it shows an effect that makes the salty taste of sodium chloride strong, and has a low sodium chloride content. Even if it is food / beverage products of this, it can be given the same salty taste as food / beverage products with higher sodium chloride content. That is, the method of using a salty taste enhancer is a method in which a salty taste enhancer is added and the salty taste of sodium chloride is strongly felt during eating, that is, the salty strength per unit amount of sodium chloride contained is increased by the salty taste enhancer. This is a method for reducing the content of sodium chloride in food and drink.

この方法は、塩化カリウムや有機酸金属塩等の塩化ナトリウム代替品を使用する方法と異なり、大きな風味や味質の変化を伴わないことから、広く検討されてきた。例えば、特定の乳清ミネラル(特許文献1、特許文献2)、フルフリルアルコール(特許文献3)、酸性アミノ酸、塩基性アミノ酸及びコハク酸又はその塩(特許文献4)、乳酸ナトリウム及び/又は乳酸カリウム(特許文献5)等が、これまで塩味強化剤として検討されてきた。   This method has been widely studied because it does not involve a significant change in flavor and taste, unlike the method using sodium chloride substitutes such as potassium chloride and organic acid metal salts. For example, specific whey minerals (Patent Literature 1, Patent Literature 2), furfuryl alcohol (Patent Literature 3), acidic amino acids, basic amino acids and succinic acid or salts thereof (Patent Literature 4), sodium lactate and / or lactic acid Potassium (Patent Document 5) and the like have been studied as salty taste enhancers.

しかし、これらの塩味強化剤を用いた方法では、塩味強化の程度が小さかったり、十分な塩味強化効果が得られるだけの量を添加すると飲食品自体が有していない風味を付与してしまうおそれがあった。また、通常これら塩味強化剤だけでは、ナトリウム摂取量の低減、所謂「減塩効果」が乏しくなり易く、結果的に塩化カリウム等の塩化ナトリウム代替品を用いる方法と併用せざるを得ないため、塩化カリウム等が有する異味が飲食品の風味を損ねることが多かった。   However, in the method using these salty taste enhancers, if the amount of salty taste enhancement is small or an amount sufficient to obtain a sufficient salty taste enhancing effect is added, a taste that the food or drink itself does not have may be imparted. was there. In addition, usually only with these salty taste enhancers, the reduction in sodium intake, so-called “salt reduction effect” tends to be poor, and as a result, it must be used in combination with a method using a sodium chloride substitute such as potassium chloride. The off-flavors of potassium chloride and the like often impaired the flavor of food and drink.

したがって、本発明の目的は、ナトリウム含有量が低減されている飲食品でありながら、低減する前と同等の塩味を呈することができるように、飲食品の塩味を強化することのできる塩味強化剤を提供することにある。   Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a salty taste enhancer that can enhance the salty taste of food and drink so that it can exhibit the same salty taste as before being reduced while being a food and drink with reduced sodium content. Is to provide.

本発明者らは、鋭意検討を行った結果、特定の乳酸発酵物を有効成分とする塩味強化剤を使用することにより、異味や雑味を付与することなく、塩味の強度や発現パターンが通常の塩分含量の飲食品と同様でありながら、飲食品のナトリウム含有量を低減することが可能であることを知見した。
また、本発明者らは、上記乳酸発酵物を乳清ミネラルやエキス類と併用すると、飲食品中の塩化ナトリウムを塩化カリウムや有機酸金属塩等の塩化ナトリウム代替品で置換して更にナトリウム含有量を低減させた場合においても、塩味の強度や発現パターン、呈味を通常の塩分含量の飲食品と同様のものとすることが可能であることを知見した。
As a result of intensive studies, the present inventors have found that the strength and expression pattern of salty taste are usually obtained by using a salty taste enhancer containing a specific lactic acid fermented product as an active ingredient without imparting a taste or miscellaneous taste. It was found that it is possible to reduce the sodium content of food and drink while being the same as the food and drink having a salt content of.
In addition, when the present lactic acid fermented product is used in combination with whey minerals and extracts, sodium chloride in food and drink is replaced with sodium chloride substitutes such as potassium chloride and organic acid metal salts, and further contains sodium. It has been found that even when the amount is reduced, the salty strength, expression pattern, and taste can be the same as those of foods and drinks having a normal salt content.

本発明は、上記知見に基づいて為されたものであり、乳原料を含む水中油型乳化物を基質とした乳酸発酵物を有効成分とする塩味強化剤、及び該塩味強化剤を用いた飲食品を提供するものである。   The present invention has been made on the basis of the above knowledge, and a salty taste enhancer comprising a lactic acid fermented product with an oil-in-water emulsion containing a milk raw material as a substrate, and a food and drink using the salty taste enhancer Goods.

本発明の塩味強化剤を使用することで、塩化ナトリウム含量が削減されているにもかかわらず、飲食品の風味や味質を損なわずに、塩味の強度や発現パターンを通常の塩分含量の飲食品と同様とすることができるため、ナトリウム摂取量を低減することができる。   Although the sodium chloride content is reduced by using the salty taste enhancer of the present invention, the salty strength and expression pattern can be changed to the normal salt content food and drink without losing the flavor and taste quality of the food or drink. The amount of sodium intake can be reduced.

以下、本発明について好ましい実施態様に基づいて、詳述する。
本発明の塩味強化剤は、乳原料を含む水中油型乳化物を基質とした乳酸発酵物を有効成分として含有することを特徴とし、塩味剤(飲食品中に塩味付与を目的として使用される塩味物質)が飲食品に付与する塩味を増強することができる。
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on preferred embodiments.
The salty taste enhancer of the present invention is characterized by containing, as an active ingredient, a lactic acid fermented product that uses an oil-in-water emulsion containing a milk raw material as a substrate, and is used for the purpose of imparting a salty taste to foods and drinks. The salty taste imparted to food and drink by the salty substance) can be enhanced.

<乳酸発酵物>
まず、本発明の有効成分である乳酸発酵物について述べる。
乳酸発酵物とは、乳酸菌が資化可能な基質を乳酸発酵して得られた風味素材であるが、本発明では、その基質として乳原料を含む水中油型乳化物を使用することにより、少量添加で、飲食品の風味や味質を損ねることなく塩味を強化することが可能となるものである。
<Lactic acid fermented product>
First, the fermented lactic acid that is an active ingredient of the present invention will be described.
A lactic acid fermented product is a flavor material obtained by lactic acid fermentation of a substrate that can be assimilated by lactic acid bacteria. In the present invention, a small amount of the lactic acid fermented product is obtained by using an oil-in-water emulsion containing a milk raw material as the substrate. By addition, it becomes possible to enhance the salty taste without impairing the flavor and taste quality of the food and drink.

上記乳原料としては、牛乳、濃縮乳、練乳、ホエイ、クリーム、バター、バタークリーム、クリームチーズ、ナチュラルチーズ、プロセスチーズ、バターオイル、乳脂分解物等の乳や乳製品をはじめ、脱脂粉乳、全粉乳、ホエイパウダー、トータルミルクプロテイン等の粉乳類や、脱脂乳、脱脂濃縮乳等の乳糖を含有する乳製品も使用可能である。   The above milk ingredients include milk, dairy products such as milk, concentrated milk, condensed milk, whey, cream, butter, butter cream, cream cheese, natural cheese, process cheese, butter oil, milk fat degradation products, skim milk powder, Powdered milk such as powdered milk, whey powder and total milk protein, and dairy products containing lactose such as skim milk and skim concentrated milk can also be used.

良好な風味の乳酸発酵物を安定して製造可能な点で、上記水中油型乳化物中の上記乳原料の含量は、無脂乳固形分として2〜50質量%であることが好ましく、5〜20質量%であることが更に好ましい。
尚、無脂乳固形分とは、乳や乳製品等の乳原料における、油脂以外の固形分のことであり、その主体は蛋白質と炭水化物である。上記乳原料に含まれる純油脂分は、後述する油脂の含量に含めるものとする。
The content of the milk raw material in the oil-in-water emulsion is preferably 2 to 50% by mass as the non-fat milk solid content in that a lactic acid fermented product having a good flavor can be stably produced. More preferably, it is -20 mass%.
The non-fat milk solid content is a solid content other than fats and oils in milk raw materials such as milk and dairy products, and its main components are proteins and carbohydrates. The pure fats and oils contained in the said milk raw material shall be included in the content of the fats and oils mentioned later.

水中油型乳化物とするために使用する油脂としては、大豆油、菜種油、コーン油、綿実油、オリーブ油、落花生油、米油、べに花油、ひまわり油、パーム油、パーム核油、ヤシ油、サル脂、マンゴ脂、乳脂、牛脂、豚脂、カカオ脂、魚油、鯨油等の各種植物油脂及び動物油脂、大豆由来、向日葵由来、乳由来、卵由来のレシチン及びリン脂質、並びにこれらの油脂に水素添加、分別、エステル交換、酵素分解、化学的分解等の物理的又は化学的処理の1種又は2種以上の処理を施した油脂を、単独で又は2種以上を組み合わせて用いることができる。   Oils and fats used to make an oil-in-water emulsion include soybean oil, rapeseed oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, olive oil, peanut oil, rice oil, benflower oil, sunflower oil, palm oil, palm kernel oil, coconut oil, monkey Fats, mango fat, milk fat, beef fat, pork fat, cacao fat, fish oil, whale oil and other vegetable oils and animal fats, soybean origin, sunflower origin, milk origin, egg-derived lecithin and phospholipid, and hydrogen in these fats and oils Oils and fats that have been subjected to one or more physical or chemical treatments such as addition, fractionation, transesterification, enzymatic degradation, and chemical degradation can be used alone or in combination of two or more.

水中油型乳化物中の油脂含量は、好ましくは1.5〜50質量%であり、より好ましくは1.5〜30質量%であり、最も好ましくは2〜20質量%である。
油脂含量が1.5質量%未満の場合、優れた塩味強化効果が得られ難いことに加え、乳酸発酵による生成物の保持力が弱くなってしまうため塩味強化剤の安定性も悪化してしまう恐れがある。また油脂含量が50質量%超の場合には、本発明の有効成分である乳酸発酵物の基質となる水中油型乳化物中に、十分に無脂乳固形分を含有させることができないため、油中水型乳化物となってしまうおそれがあり、また、水中油型乳化物の乳化安定性が乏しくなり、乳酸発酵の進行が遅れる場合がある。
尚、該油脂含量は、上記油脂、乳原料中の純油脂分に加え、後述するその他の原材料に由来する純油脂分の合計量として算出するものとする。
The oil and fat content in the oil-in-water emulsion is preferably 1.5 to 50% by mass, more preferably 1.5 to 30% by mass, and most preferably 2 to 20% by mass.
If the fat content is less than 1.5% by mass, it is difficult to obtain an excellent salty taste enhancing effect, and the stability of the salty taste enhancing agent also deteriorates because the retention of the product by lactic acid fermentation is weakened. There is a fear. When the fat content is more than 50% by mass, the oil-in-water emulsion used as a substrate for the lactic acid fermented product that is the active ingredient of the present invention cannot sufficiently contain non-fat milk solids. There is a risk of becoming a water-in-oil emulsion, and the emulsion stability of the oil-in-water emulsion may be poor, and the progress of lactic acid fermentation may be delayed.
The fat and oil content is calculated as the total amount of pure fats and oils derived from other raw materials to be described later in addition to the pure fats and oils in the fats and milk raw materials.

本発明においては、上記油脂の中でも、特に塩味強化効果が高い塩味強化剤が得られる点から乳脂を用いることが好ましい。乳脂を使用する場合、乳脂そのものを使用することができるほか、上記乳原料として、牛乳、濃縮乳、練乳、クリーム、バター、バタークリーム、クリームチーズ、ナチュラルチーズ、プロセスチーズ等の乳脂を含有する乳や乳製品を使用することによって、乳脂を使用することもでき、これらの乳や乳製品は、単独で又は2種以上を組合せて用いることができる。   In this invention, it is preferable to use milk fat from the point from which the salty taste enhancer with especially high salty taste enhancing effect is obtained among the said fats and oils. When using milk fat, milk fat itself can be used, and milk containing milk fat such as milk, concentrated milk, condensed milk, cream, butter, butter cream, cream cheese, natural cheese, process cheese, etc. Milk fat can also be used by using dairy products, and these milk and dairy products can be used alone or in combination of two or more.

上記水中油型乳化物を得るためには水を使用することができる。使用する水については、特に限定されず、水道水、軟水系・硬水系のミネラルウォーター、イオン交換水、蒸留水等のいずれも使用可能であり、またこれらを混合して使用することもできる。
また、上記水中油型乳化物においては、水に代えて又は水に加えて、上記乳や乳製品のうちの水を多く含有する乳や乳製品、又は水を多く含有する飲食品を使用することもできるが、本発明では、牛乳、濃縮乳、ホエイ、クリーム、バター、クリームチーズ、ナチュラルチーズ、プロセスチーズ等の水分を多く含有する乳や乳製品のうちの1種又は2種以上を使用することが好ましい。
水中油型乳化物中は、水分含量が好ましくは30〜95質量%、より好ましくは70〜90質量%となるように調製される。
Water can be used to obtain the oil-in-water emulsion. The water to be used is not particularly limited, and any of tap water, soft water / hard water mineral water, ion-exchanged water, distilled water, and the like can be used, and these can be mixed and used.
Moreover, in the said oil-in-water emulsion, it replaces with water or in addition to water, the milk and dairy products containing much water among the said milk and dairy products, or the food / beverage products containing many waters are used. In the present invention, one or more kinds of milk and milk products containing a lot of water such as milk, concentrated milk, whey, cream, butter, cream cheese, natural cheese, and processed cheese are used. It is preferable to do.
The oil-in-water emulsion is prepared so that the water content is preferably 30 to 95% by mass, more preferably 70 to 90% by mass.

本発明では、上記水中油型乳化物中に、遊離脂肪酸を含有させることができ、特に水中油型乳化物中に遊離脂肪酸を0.001〜0.5質量%含有させることにより、飲食品の塩味の発現パターン、特に摂取した際の最初の呈味(先味)を改善することができる。   In the present invention, a free fatty acid can be contained in the oil-in-water emulsion, and particularly by containing 0.001 to 0.5% by mass of a free fatty acid in the oil-in-water emulsion, It is possible to improve the expression pattern of salty taste, particularly the first taste (early taste) when ingested.

遊離脂肪酸は、添加する際の形態に制限はないが、上記油脂に、アルカリ等を用いた化学的分解やリパーゼ等の酵素を用いた酵素分解等により、1種又は2種以上の処理を施した、油脂分解物の形で添加されることが、より塩化ナトリウムが有する塩味の先味に近い呈味が得られる点で、特に好ましい。分解に供する油脂の種類については、特に限定されないが、乳脂の分解物を用いると、特に先味の強化を図ることのできる塩味強化剤が得られる。尚、この油脂分解物から脂肪酸のみを抽出等の操作により取り出して添加することもでき、市販されている遊離脂肪酸をそのまま添加することもできるが、遊離脂肪酸は、様々な炭素数や飽和度の脂肪酸の混合物であることが、不快臭等がなく塩味の先味を強化できるため、好ましい。   The form of free fatty acid added is not limited, but the fat or oil is subjected to one or more treatments by chemical decomposition using alkali or the like, or enzymatic decomposition using an enzyme such as lipase. It is particularly preferable that it is added in the form of a fat and oil decomposition product in that a taste closer to the salty taste of sodium chloride is obtained. Although it does not specifically limit about the kind of fats and oils used for a decomposition | disassembly, When the decomposition product of milk fat is used, the salty taste enhancer which can aim at strengthening of a taste especially will be obtained. In addition, only fatty acids can be taken out from this oil and fat decomposition product by an operation such as extraction, and commercially available free fatty acids can be added as they are, but free fatty acids have various carbon numbers and saturations. A mixture of fatty acids is preferred because there is no unpleasant odor and the salty taste can be enhanced.

また、上記水中油型乳化物には、上記以外のその他の成分を必要に応じて添加することができる。その他の成分としては、例えば、アルギン酸、アルギン酸塩、ペクチン、LMペクチン、HMペクチン、海藻抽出物、海藻エキス、寒天、グルコマンナン、ローカストビーンガム、グアーガム、ジェランガム、タラガントガム、キサンタンガム、カラギーナン、カードラン、タマリンドシードガム、カラヤガム、タラガム、トラガントガム、アラビアガム、カシアガム、メチルセルロース、カルボキシメチルセルロース、ポリデキストロース等のゲル化剤や安定剤、金属イオン封鎖剤、食塩、岩塩等の塩味剤、無機塩、有機酸塩、無機酸、有機酸、直鎖デキストリン・分枝デキストリン・環状デキストリン・難消化性デキストリン等のデキストリン類、蔗糖、液糖、はちみつ、ブドウ糖、果糖、麦芽糖、乳糖、シクロデキストリン、酵素糖化水飴、酸糖化水飴、還元澱粉糖化物、還元糖ポリデキストロース、還元乳糖、ソルビトール、キシリトール、マルチトール、エリスリトール、マンニトール、異性化液糖、ショ糖結合水飴、オリゴ糖、キシロース、トレハロース、フラクトオリゴ糖、大豆オリゴ糖、ガラクトオリゴ糖、キシロオリゴ糖、アラビノース、パラチノースオリゴ糖、アガロオリゴ糖、キチンオリゴ糖、乳果オリゴ糖、ヘミセルロース、モラセス、イソマルトオリゴ糖、マルトオリゴ糖、ラフィノース、ラクチュロース、テアンデオリゴ糖、ゲンチオリゴ糖等の糖類、アセスルファムカリウム、スクラロース、ステビア、アスパルテーム、サッカリン、ネオテーム、甘草、羅漢果、グリチルリチン、グリチルリチン酸塩、ジヒドロカルコン、ソーマチン、モネリン等の甘味料、アルコール、プロピレングリコール、香料、苦味料・調味料等の呈味成分、着色料、保存料、酸化防止剤、pH調整剤、乳化剤、賦形剤、固結防止剤、分散剤、光沢剤、ビタミン剤等を配合することができる。   In addition, other components other than those described above can be added to the oil-in-water emulsion as necessary. Examples of other components include alginic acid, alginate, pectin, LM pectin, HM pectin, seaweed extract, seaweed extract, agar, glucomannan, locust bean gum, guar gum, gellan gum, tarragant gum, xanthan gum, carrageenan, curdlan, Tamarind seed gum, karaya gum, tara gum, tragacanth gum, gum arabic, cassia gum, methyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, polydextrose and other gelling agents and stabilizers, sequestering agents, salt, rock salt and other salting agents, inorganic salts, organic acid salts , Inorganic acids, organic acids, dextrins such as linear dextrin, branched dextrin, cyclic dextrin, indigestible dextrin, sucrose, liquid sugar, honey, glucose, fructose, maltose, lactose, cyclodextrin, enzymatic saccharification Koji, Saccharified starch syrup, Reduced starch saccharified product, Reduced sugar polydextrose, Reduced lactose, Sorbitol, Xylitol, Maltitol, Erythritol, Mannitol, Isomerized liquid sugar, Sucrose-conjugated starch syrup, Oligosaccharide, Xylose, Trehalose, Fructooligosaccharide, Soybean oligosaccharide, galactooligosaccharide, xylo-oligosaccharide, arabinose, palatinose oligosaccharide, agarooligosaccharide, chitin oligosaccharide, dairy oligosaccharide, hemicellulose, molasses, isomaltoligosaccharide, malto-oligosaccharide, raffinose, lactulose, theande-oligosaccharide, gentio-oligosaccharide, etc. Saccharides, acesulfame potassium, sucralose, stevia, aspartame, saccharin, neotame, licorice, rahan fruit, glycyrrhizin, glycyrrhizinate, dihydrochalcone, thaumatin, monelin, etc. Taste ingredients such as sweeteners, alcohol, propylene glycol, flavorings, bitters and seasonings, coloring agents, preservatives, antioxidants, pH adjusters, emulsifiers, excipients, anti-caking agents, dispersants, gloss Preparations, vitamin preparations and the like can be added.

その他の成分の添加量は、水中油型乳化物中の固形分中で20質量%以下が好ましく、15質量%以下がより好ましく、10質量%以下が最も好ましい。
その他の成分を20質量%よりも多く入れると、飲食品に塩味強化剤を添加した際に本来有しない風味を付与する恐れがある上、飲食品が本来有しないテクスチャを付与する恐れがある。
The amount of other components added is preferably 20% by mass or less, more preferably 15% by mass or less, and most preferably 10% by mass or less in the solid content of the oil-in-water emulsion.
When other components are added in an amount of more than 20% by mass, there is a risk of imparting a flavor that is not originally present when a salty taste enhancer is added to the food or beverage, and a texture that is not inherently present in the food or beverage may be imparted.

また、上記水中油型乳化物は、該水中油型乳化物中の油脂100質量部に対して、蛋白質が75〜250質量部、炭水化物が120〜300質量部の量比を満たすように調製することが好ましい。尚、蛋白質及び炭水化物の量は、乳原料以外のその他の成分に含まれる蛋白質及び炭水化物の量も併せて算出するものとする。   Moreover, the said oil-in-water emulsion is prepared so that protein may satisfy | fill 75-250 mass parts and carbohydrates 120-300 mass parts with respect to 100 mass parts of fats and oils in this oil-in-water emulsion. It is preferable. The amount of protein and carbohydrate is calculated together with the amount of protein and carbohydrate contained in other components other than the milk raw material.

上記水中油型乳化物において、油脂100質量部に対して蛋白質が75質量部未満となる場合、得られる水中油型乳化物の乳化安定性が低下する恐れがあることに加え、得られる本発明の塩味強化剤及び飲食品の風味の低下や、塩化ナトリウム含量の低減効果が低下する恐れがある。また蛋白質が250質量部超となる場合、乳酸発酵中の蛋白質分解の際に呈味成分や香気成分が過剰に産生され、得られる本発明の塩味強化剤及び飲食品に異味を付与してしまう恐れがある。
また、上記水中油型乳化物において、油脂100質量部に対して炭水化物が120質量部未満の場合、乳酸発酵の基質が不足し、風味成分や香気成分の産生が十分になされない恐れがある上、ナトリウム低減効果が低下する恐れがある。また炭水化物が250質量部超となる場合、得られる本発明の塩味強化剤及び飲食品に異味・雑味を付与してしまう恐れがある。
In the oil-in-water emulsion, when the protein is less than 75 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the fat and oil, the resulting oil-in-water emulsion may have a reduced emulsion stability, and the resulting invention is obtained. There is a risk that the salty taste enhancer and the flavor of foods and drinks will be lowered and the effect of reducing the sodium chloride content will be reduced. Moreover, when protein exceeds 250 mass parts, in the case of protein decomposition | disassembly during lactic acid fermentation, a taste component and a fragrance | flavor component will be produced excessively and will give a taste to the salty taste enhancer and food / beverage products of this invention obtained. There is a fear.
In addition, in the oil-in-water emulsion, when the amount of carbohydrate is less than 120 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of fats and oils, there is a risk that the substrate for lactic acid fermentation will be insufficient, and that flavor components and aroma components will not be produced sufficiently. The sodium reduction effect may be reduced. Moreover, when carbohydrate becomes more than 250 mass parts, there exists a possibility of giving a taste and miscellaneous taste to the salty taste enhancer and food-drinks of this invention which are obtained.

次に、上記乳原料を含む水中油型乳化物の製造方法について述べる。
