Description

本発明は、動植物タンパク質またはその分解物に由来する異味・異臭の改善剤または酸味料を含有する飲食品、乳酸菌発酵物または酢飲料に由来する刺激的な酸味を緩和する酸味の改善剤に関する。   The present invention relates to a sourness-improving agent that alleviates the stimulating sourness derived from foods and drinks, fermented lactic acid bacteria, or vinegared beverages containing an acidity / odour odor-improving agent or acidulant derived from animal or plant protein or a degradation product thereof.

人体を構成する主要な成分であるタンパク質は、飲食品等の分野において重要な役割を担っており、その栄養性の面からだけでなく、結着性、起泡性、乳化性等の物性面、あるいは血圧上昇抑制等の生理機能の面での利用も多い。例えば、動物性タンパク質またはその分解物の主体をなすコラーゲン、コラーゲンペプチド、ゼラチンは、真皮の結合組織の主要な成分であり、高い保湿性を有することから、コラーゲンなどの美容的効果を期待して、化粧品、健康食品を始め、飲料、菓子類等に幅広く利用されている。また、例えば、乳汁に含まれる乳タンパクの主体をなすカゼインまたはその分解物は、高い栄養価を有するとともに、低温での優れた溶解性、乳化性、結着性を有することから、これらの機能を目的として、育児粉乳、乳製品、健康食品の他、液状のコーヒーホワイトナー、畜肉加工品等に利用されている。さらに、例えば、植物性タンパク質の中で代表的な大豆タンパク、大豆ペプチドは、栄養的にも優れており、また、コレステロールの低減作用等の生理機能を有し、各種の健康食品等に応用されている。   Proteins, which are the main constituents of the human body, play an important role in the field of foods and drinks, and not only in terms of nutritional properties but also in physical properties such as binding properties, foaming properties, and emulsifying properties. Or, it is often used in terms of physiological functions such as suppression of blood pressure rise. For example, collagen, collagen peptides, and gelatin, which are the main components of animal proteins or their degradation products, are the main components of connective tissue of the dermis and have high moisturizing properties, so they expect cosmetic effects such as collagen. It is widely used in cosmetics, health foods, beverages and confectionery. In addition, for example, casein or its degradation product, which is the main component of milk protein contained in milk, has high nutritional value and has excellent solubility, emulsification and binding properties at low temperatures. For this purpose, it is used in infant formula, dairy products, health foods, liquid coffee whiteners, processed meat products, and the like. Furthermore, for example, soy protein and soy peptide, which are representative of vegetable proteins, are nutritionally excellent and have physiological functions such as cholesterol-reducing action and are applied to various health foods. ing.

しかしながら、動植物タンパク質またはその分解物の中には、不快な臭いや不快な味を有するものがある。特に、前記したカゼインおよびコラーゲンは、それぞれ、一般にカゼイン臭、コラーゲン臭と呼ばれる特有の異味・異臭を有しており、そのため、それらの使用量や使用範囲が制限を受けるという問題点がある。また、大豆タンパクには、独特の青臭い異臭があり、大豆ペプチドには、分解物独特の苦味があり、使用が制限されるという問題点がある。   However, some animal and plant proteins or their degradation products have an unpleasant odor or an unpleasant taste. In particular, the casein and collagen described above each have a peculiar taste and odor which are generally referred to as casein odor and collagen odor. Therefore, there is a problem that the amount and range of use thereof are limited. In addition, soy protein has a peculiar smell of blue odor, and soy peptide has a peculiar bitter taste of a decomposed product, and has a problem that its use is restricted.

そこで、上記問題点を解決するため、従来、種々の方法が提案されている。カゼインおよびコラーゲンが有する臭いを除去する方法としては、例えば、カゼインナトリウム類に乳清ミネラルを添加する方法(特許文献1参照)、カゼイン分散溶液を所定の剪断速度で攪拌洗浄して、カゼインの有する臭気物質をアルカリ水等に移行させて除去する方法(特許文献2参照)、スクラロースを含有させてコラーゲン臭をマスキングする方法(特許文献3参照)、クロロゲン酸を使用する方法(特許文献4参照)、エチルデカノエートを添加する方法(特許文献5参照)、エチルオクタノエートを添加する方法(特許文献6参照)などが提案されている。また、大豆タンパク、大豆ペプチドの異味・異臭を改善する方法としては、例えば、乾燥大豆蛋白含有食品に茶類ポリフェノール類を添加して風味を改善する方法(特許文献7参照)、大豆製品にシソ抽出物を添加して大豆製品の呈味を改善する方法(特許文献8参照)などが提案されている。   In order to solve the above problems, various methods have been conventionally proposed. Examples of the method for removing the odor of casein and collagen include a method of adding whey minerals to sodium caseinates (see Patent Document 1), and stirring and washing a casein dispersion at a predetermined shear rate to have casein. A method of removing odorous substances by transferring them to alkaline water or the like (see Patent Document 2), a method of masking the collagen odor by containing sucralose (see Patent Document 3), a method of using chlorogenic acid (see Patent Document 4) In addition, a method of adding ethyl decanoate (see Patent Document 5), a method of adding ethyl octanoate (see Patent Document 6), and the like have been proposed. Examples of methods for improving the off-flavor and off-flavor of soy protein and soy peptide include, for example, a method of improving the flavor by adding tea polyphenols to a dry soy protein-containing food (see Patent Document 7), A method for improving the taste of soybean products by adding an extract (see Patent Document 8) has been proposed.

さらに、通常、飲食品には酸味の付与、防腐作用などの効果を期待して酸味料が用いられている。しかしながら、酸味料に由来する酸味や刺激臭が飲食品の風味を損なう場合がある。そこで、このような酸味料に由来する刺激的な酸味を改善するために、例えば、高甘味度甘味剤を甘味の閾値以下の量で用いて酸味をマスキングする方法(特許文献9参照)、植物由来のタンパク質加水分解物を配合する方法(特許文献10参照)、5’−ウリジル酸ナトリウムおよび/または5’−シチジル酸ナトリウムを添加する方法(特許文献11参照)などが提案されている。   Furthermore, acidulants are usually used for foods and drinks with the expectation of sourness and antiseptic effects. However, the acidity and pungent odor derived from the acidulant may impair the flavor of the food and drink. Therefore, in order to improve the stimulating sourness derived from such an acidulant, for example, a method of masking sourness using a high-intensity sweetener in an amount below the sweetness threshold (see Patent Document 9), plant A method of blending a derived protein hydrolyzate (see Patent Document 10), a method of adding 5'-sodium uridylate and / or 5'-sodium cytidylate (see Patent Document 11), and the like have been proposed.
