Description

本発明はカカオ代用脂として使用できるサル脂分別油の製造法、特に品質劣化の進んだ低品質のサル脂原油から、高品質のカカオ代用脂として使用できるサル脂分別油の製造法に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for producing a sebum fraction oil that can be used as a cacao substitute oil, and more particularly, to a method for producing a sebum fraction oil that can be used as a high quality cacao substitute oil from a low-quality saf oil crude oil whose quality has deteriorated.

従来からチョコレート用油脂の代表であるカカオ脂を代替しうる油脂として、対称型トリグリセリドの1、3ジ飽和−2不飽和トリグリセリド(以下SUS、S:飽和脂肪酸 、U:不飽和脂肪酸)を主成分とした油脂であるカカオ代用脂が使用されている。対称型トリグリセリドを構成する代表的な飽和脂肪酸はパルミチン酸(P)、ステアリン酸 (St),アラキジン酸(A)であり、不飽和脂肪酸はオレイン酸(O)である。主にPOPはパーム油、チャイニーズタローの分別油から得られ、POStはイリッペ油、 モーラー油など及びそれらの分別油から得られる。StOStはコクム油、マンゴ核油、シア脂、サル脂およびそれらの分別油から得られる。 As fats and oils that can replace cocoa butter, which is a representative fat for chocolate, symmetric triglycerides 1, 3 di-saturated-2 unsaturated triglycerides (hereinafter SUS, S: saturated fatty acids, U: unsaturated fatty acids) are the main components. The cacao substitute fat which is the fats and oils used is used. Typical saturated fatty acids constituting the symmetric triglyceride are palmitic acid (P), stearic acid (St), and arachidic acid (A), and the unsaturated fatty acid is oleic acid (O). POP is mainly obtained from palm oil and Chinese tallow fractionated oil, and POSt is obtained from iripe oil, mora oil and the like and fractionated oils thereof. StOSt is obtained from Kokum oil, mango kernel oil, shea fat, monkey fat and their fractionated oils.

サル脂は、SOS(主成分はStOSt、AOSt)を多く含むので、精製サル脂あるいはサル脂分別油はカカオ代用脂の原料油のひとつとしてますます重要な原料油脂である 。 Since monkey fat contains a large amount of SOS (main components are StOSt and AOSt), refined monkey fat or monkey fat fraction oil is an increasingly important raw oil and fat as one of the raw oils for cacao substitute fat.

サル脂は、サルシード脂とも呼ばれ、天然に生育するショリアロブスタというカン木の種子から主にヘキサンを用いて抽出される油脂で、ボルネオタロー型油脂と総称される油脂群のなかの一種である。ショリアロブスタ種子中の油脂は、加水分解酵素により加水分解されやすいため、種子集荷後は速やかに油脂の抽出を行うのが望ましいが、集荷地域の労働事情や交通事情のために必ずしも速やかな油脂の抽出がなされないのが実情である。そのため、入手したサル脂原油の中には加水分解が過度に進んだ、いわゆる低品質の原料油脂がしばしば見かけられる。一方、サル脂にはジヒドロキシステアリン酸を構成脂肪酸として含有するトリグリセリド(以下DHS−TG)やエポキシステアリン酸を構成脂肪酸として含有するトリグリセリド(以下EP−TG)が存在すること、特にDHS−TGが多く含まれることが知られている。低品質の原料油脂にはDHS−TGが2〜10重量%含まれ、該油脂を精製したサル脂や従来のサル脂分別油でも通常は1.0重量%以上含むため、かかる油脂は良好な品質のカカオ代用脂と言えないものになる。具体的には、チョコレート作製時のチョコレート生地粘度上昇を引き起こしテンパリングが困難になるとともに、離型性も不良となる。その結果、チョコレートの艶がなく、口溶けも不良となるという大きな問題がある。 Monkey fat, also called monkey seed fat, is an oil that is extracted mainly from corn tree seeds called Shoria Robusta, using hexane, and is a kind of oils and fats collectively called Borneo Tallow oil. is there. Since oils and fats in Shoria robusta seeds are easily hydrolyzed by hydrolytic enzymes, it is desirable to extract oils and fats immediately after seed collection. However, oils and fats are not always prompt due to labor and traffic conditions in the collection area. The fact is that no extraction is made. Therefore, so-called low-quality raw material fats and oils that are excessively hydrolyzed are often found in the obtained monkey fat crude oil. On the other hand, monkey fat contains triglyceride (hereinafter referred to as DHS-TG) containing dihydroxystearic acid as a constituent fatty acid and triglyceride (hereinafter referred to as EP-TG) containing epoxy stearic acid as a constituent fatty acid, especially DHS-TG. It is known to be included. The low-quality raw material fats and oils contain 2 to 10% by weight of DHS-TG, and the fats and oils obtained by purifying the fats and oils and the conventional fractionated monkey fats usually contain 1.0% by weight or more. It will not be a quality cacao substitute fat. Specifically, the chocolate dough viscosity is increased at the time of chocolate production, tempering becomes difficult, and releasability becomes poor. As a result, there is a big problem that the chocolate has no gloss and the melting of the mouth is poor.

低品質のサル脂原料油脂から、上記のようなDHS−TGを除去して高品質のカカオ代用脂を得るべく下記のような試みがなされている。
非特許文献1は、サル脂の乾式分別又は極性溶剤のアセトン分別によるDHS−TGおよびジグリセリド(以下DG)除去方法、あるいはサル脂中のDHS−TGおよびDGを高濃度に分画する方法に関するものである。極性溶剤のアセトンを用いて分別し、結晶部のDHS−TGおよびDGを減少させる方法と、シリカゲルカラムでDHS−TG及びDGを吸着、除去して減少させる方法が記載されているが、前者はDHS−TGの除去が不十分で、後者は高価なシリカゲルカラムを用いる必要があり、さらにそのシリカゲルカラム再生のため多量の強極性溶剤を使用する必要があり、実用的な方法ではない。

The following attempts have been made to obtain high-quality cocoa substitute fat by removing DHS-TG as described above from low-quality monkey fat raw oil.
Non-Patent Document 1 relates to a method for removing DHS-TG and diglyceride (hereinafter referred to as DG) by dry fractionation of monkey fat or acetone as a polar solvent, or a method of fractionating DHS-TG and DG in monkey fat at a high concentration. It is. The method of fractionating using acetone as a polar solvent to reduce DHS-TG and DG in the crystal part and the method of reducing by adsorbing and removing DHS-TG and DG on a silica gel column are described. The removal of DHS-TG is insufficient, and the latter requires the use of an expensive silica gel column, and a large amount of strong polar solvent must be used for regeneration of the silica gel column, which is not a practical method.

特許文献1は、サル脂の脱ガムやアルカリ脱酸による精製、及び非極性溶剤のヘキサン分別や活性剤分別によるDHS−TG,EP−TGの除去方法であるが、SUS含有量の低いサル脂分別油が得られたにすぎなかった。   Patent Document 1 is a method for removing DHS-TG and EP-TG by purification of monkey fat by degumming or alkali deoxidation, and hexane fractionation or activator fractionation of a nonpolar solvent, but monkey fat having a low SUS content. Only a fractionated oil was obtained.

特許文献2は、サル脂を分画して得られるSUS含有量が80−90重量%であるサル脂フラクションからなるハードバターに関するものである。ヘキサンなどの溶剤を使用して分別するものであり、一旦溶液を比較的弱く冷却して析出する高融点部の結晶を除去した後、再び低温にまで冷却し、析出する中融点フラクションの結晶を集める方法であるが、かかる方法では1段目の分別で残存したDHS−TGは、2段目の分別で中融点部と共に結晶化するため、DHS−TGの除去が不十分という問題があった。   Patent Document 2 relates to a hard butter comprising a monkey fat fraction having a SUS content of 80 to 90% by weight obtained by fractionating monkey fat. The solvent is fractionated using a solvent such as hexane, and once the solution is cooled relatively weakly to remove precipitated high melting point crystals, the solution is cooled to a low temperature again, and the precipitated medium melting point fraction crystals are separated. In this method, DHS-TG remaining in the first-stage fractionation is crystallized together with the middle melting point portion in the second-stage fractionation, so that there is a problem that DHS-TG is not sufficiently removed. .

特許文献3は、サル脂を乾式分別又は非極性溶剤のヘキサン分別し、得た液状部を液状部に対して100〜900重量%の極性溶剤で溶剤分別することによるDHS−TGの除去方法であるが、乾式分別又は非極性溶剤のヘキサン分別後に極性溶剤で分別するため、乾式分別と極性溶剤での溶剤分別の方式が異なる2種類の分別設備を必要とする、または非極性溶剤と極性溶剤の2種類の溶剤を使う必要があるため、いずれも生産効率に問題のある方法であった。   Patent Document 3 is a method of removing DHS-TG by subjecting monkey fat to dry fractionation or hexane fractionation of a nonpolar solvent, and subjecting the obtained liquid part to solvent fractionation with 100 to 900% by weight of polar solvent with respect to the liquid part. There are two types of separation equipment that differ in the methods of dry fractionation and solvent separation with polar solvents after separation by dry separation or hexane separation of nonpolar solvent, or nonpolar solvent and polar solvent Therefore, both of these methods were problematic in production efficiency.

上記の特許文献1〜3には、いずれもDHS−TGの低減方法が記載されているが、カカオ代用脂の品質に同様に影響するジグリセリド(以下DG)、非対称型トリグリセリド(以下SSU)画分の低減には言及していない。   The above Patent Documents 1 to 3 all describe methods for reducing DHS-TG, but the diglyceride (hereinafter referred to as DG) and asymmetric triglyceride (hereinafter referred to as SSU) fractions that similarly affect the quality of cacao substitute fat. It does not mention the reduction of.

特許文献4には、テンパリング阻害成分のひとつであるSSU画分を低減したカカオ代用脂が開示されており、高品質のカカオ代用脂を得るにはSSU画分の低減も重要である。   Patent Document 4 discloses a cacao substitute fat in which the SSU fraction, which is one of the tempering inhibiting components, is reduced. In order to obtain a high-quality cacao substitute fat, the reduction of the SSU fraction is also important.

上記文献から、高品質のサル脂分別油を得るにはDHS−TGに限らず、DG、SSU画分も併せて低減する必要があるが、従来の技術で低品質サル脂からかかる成分を効率的にしかも品質的に許容できる範囲まで低減するには限界があった。

From the above document, it is necessary to reduce not only DHS-TG but also DG and SSU fractions in order to obtain high-quality monkey oil fractionated oil. In addition, there is a limit to reducing the quality to an acceptable range.

従って、本発明の目的は、低品質のサル脂を原料として、高品質のカカオ代用脂として使用することができるようなDHS−TG、DG、SSU画分が十分に低減されたSUS含有量に富むサル脂分別油の製造法およびその分別油を提供することである。 Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a SUS content with sufficiently reduced DHS-TG, DG, and SSU fractions that can be used as a high-quality cocoa substitute fat using low-quality monkey fat as a raw material. It is to provide a method for producing a rich fraction of monkey oil and its fractionated oil.

本発明者らは、DHS−TGを低減すると同時に、DG、SSU画分も併せて低減する方法を鋭意検討した結果、サル脂を精製し、極性溶剤を用いて分別するに際し、結晶化させるための晶析工程と晶析・ロ過後の結晶部の洗浄工程で用いる極性溶剤の総量を、サル脂精製油に対し1000重量%以上とすることで、DHS−TG、DG、SSU画分を除去、低減するとともにSUS含有量に富む結晶部を得ることにより、目的とする高品質のカカオ代用脂が得られることを見出し、本発明を完成した。 The inventors of the present invention have intensively studied a method for reducing DHS-TG and at the same time reducing DG and SSU fractions together. As a result, monkey fat is purified and crystallized when fractionated using a polar solvent. DHS-TG, DG, and SSU fractions are removed by setting the total amount of polar solvent used in the crystallization process and the washing process of the crystal part after crystallization and filtration to 1000% by weight or more with respect to refined monkey oil. It was found that the desired high-quality cacao substitute fat was obtained by obtaining a crystal part which was reduced and rich in SUS content, and the present invention was completed.

本発明は上記知見に基づいてなされたもので、本発明の第1は、サル脂を精製し、極性溶剤を用いて晶析及び結晶部の洗浄を行い、結晶部をハードバター成分として得る方法であって、当該晶析及び洗浄に用いる極性溶剤の総量がサル脂精製油100重量%に対し1100〜2100重量%であることを特徴とし、ハードバター成分中のジヒドロキシステアリン酸を構成脂肪酸として含有するトリグリセリド」(DHS−TG)含有量が0.4重量%以下、ジグリセリド(DG)含有量が0.5重量%以下、1,2ジ飽和−3不飽和トリグリセリド(SSU)画分含有量が2重量%以下である、サル脂分別油の製造法である。第2は、ハードバター成分中の1,3ジ飽和−2不飽和トリグリセリド(SUS)含有量が85重量%以上である第1記載のサル脂分別油の製造法である。第3は、極性溶剤を用いて分別し、得られた結晶部を用いて再分別して結晶部をハードバター成分として得る第1または第2のサル脂分別油の製造法である。

The present invention has been made on the basis of the above findings. The first of the present invention is a method of purifying monkey fat, crystallization and washing of the crystal part using a polar solvent, and obtaining the crystal part as a hard butter component The total amount of the polar solvent used for the crystallization and washing is 1100 to 2100% by weight with respect to 100% by weight of the refined monkey fat, and contains dihydroxystearic acid in the hard butter component as a constituent fatty acid. "Triglyceride" (DHS-TG) content is 0.4 wt% or less, diglyceride (DG) content is 0.5 wt% or less, 1,2 di-saturated-3 unsaturated triglyceride (SSU) fraction content is This is a method for producing a sebum fraction oil that is 2% by weight or less. The second is a method for producing a sal fat fractionated oil according to the first aspect, wherein the content of 1,3 di-saturated-2 unsaturated triglyceride (SUS) in the hard butter component is 85% by weight or more. The third is a method for producing the first or second oil for fractionation of monkey fat, which is fractionated using a polar solvent and is re-fractionated using the obtained crystal part to obtain the crystal part as a hard butter component.

低品質のサル脂を原料として高品質のカカオ代用脂を得る方法を提供するものであり、該方法により品質の振れの大きい原料油脂であるサル脂をカカオ代用脂の原料として安定して使用することを可能とするものである。 The present invention provides a method for obtaining a high-quality cacao substitute fat using low-quality monkey fat as a raw material, and uses the monkey fat, which is a raw material fat with high quality fluctuation, as a raw material for cacao substitute fat. It is possible to do that.

以下、本発明のサル脂分別油の製造方法について説明する。本発明のサル脂分別油の製造方法は、ショリアロブスタの種子から抽出した原油を精製し、精製サル脂を極性溶剤を用いて分別するに際し、結晶化させるための晶析工程と晶析・ロ過後の結晶部の洗浄工程で用いる極性溶剤の総量を、サル脂精製油に対し1000重量%以上とすることにより、DHS−TG、DG、SSU画分を低減させるとともにSUS含有量が85重量%以上の結晶部を得ることを特徴とする。 Hereafter, the manufacturing method of the monkey oil fractionation oil of this invention is demonstrated. The method for producing a sebum fraction oil according to the present invention includes a crystallization step and a crystallization step for refining crude oil extracted from Shoria robusta seeds, and crystallizing the refined safat using a polar solvent. The total amount of polar solvent used in the washing step of the crystal part after filtration is 1000% by weight or more with respect to the refined monkey fat, thereby reducing the DHS-TG, DG and SSU fractions and the SUS content is 85%. % Or more of the crystal part is obtained.

サル脂原油の精製方法は一般的な方法であればよく、例えばサル脂原油に対して好ましくは0.1〜0.4重量%のリン酸を添加して脱ガム、アルカリによる脱酸、脱酸後の湯洗、減圧脱水、漂白、脱臭を行うのが一般的である。原油の品質によっては、かかる工程の一部を省略することができるが、低品質のサル脂原油の場合は脱ガム、アルカリによる脱酸、湯洗及び減圧脱水が必須で、かかる工程で処理することにより、原油中に含まれるDG,EP−TG,DHS−TGを部分的に低減することができる。かかる工程なしでは、DG,EP−TG,DHS−TGの含有量が多すぎて、後の溶剤分別によってかかる成分を許容範囲まで低減することが困難となる。 The refining method of the sal fat crude oil may be a general method. For example, 0.1 to 0.4% by weight of phosphoric acid is preferably added to the sal fat crude oil for degumming, deoxidation with alkali, desorption. In general, washing with hot water after acid, dehydration under reduced pressure, bleaching, and deodorization are performed. Depending on the quality of the crude oil, part of this process can be omitted, but in the case of low-quality monkey oil crude oil, degumming, alkali deoxidation, hot water washing and dehydration under reduced pressure are essential. Thereby, DG, EP-TG, and DHS-TG contained in crude oil can be partially reduced. Without such a process, the content of DG, EP-TG, and DHS-TG is too high, and it becomes difficult to reduce such components to an acceptable range by subsequent solvent fractionation.

また、脱臭工程での脱臭条件も重要で、脱臭温度としては230〜260℃、好ましくは230〜250℃、最も好ましくは230〜240℃、脱臭時の真空度は5Torr以下、望ましくは2Torr以下が好ましい。脱臭温度が250℃を超えると、脱臭工程中にSUS画分の部分的な異性化が起こり、SSU画分が生成する傾向にあり、好ましくない。また、脱臭温度が230℃未満である場合や真空度が5Torrを超える場合は、油脂中の遊離脂肪酸の除去が不十分となるため好ましくない。 Deodorizing conditions in the deodorizing step are also important. The deodorizing temperature is 230 to 260 ° C., preferably 230 to 250 ° C., most preferably 230 to 240 ° C., and the degree of vacuum at the time of deodorizing is 5 Torr or less, desirably 2 Torr or less. preferable. When the deodorization temperature exceeds 250 ° C., partial isomerization of the SUS fraction occurs during the deodorization step, and an SSU fraction tends to be generated, which is not preferable. Moreover, when the deodorizing temperature is less than 230 ° C. or when the degree of vacuum exceeds 5 Torr, removal of free fatty acids in the oil and fat is not preferable.

低品質サル脂原油の場合は、既述のようにDHS−TGを2〜10重量%含み、上記のような方法で精製してもDHS−TGが1〜4重量%残存し、DG、SSU画分も許容できない範囲で含有するため、良質のハードバター成分とは言えない。かかる場合は、以下の本発明の方法で溶剤分別を行う必要がある。 In the case of low-quality monkey fat crude oil, it contains 2 to 10% by weight of DHS-TG as described above, and 1 to 4% by weight of DHS-TG remains even after refining by the above method. Since the fraction is contained in an unacceptable range, it cannot be said to be a good-quality hard butter component. In such a case, it is necessary to carry out solvent fractionation by the following method of the present invention.

50〜70℃に加熱し完全融解した精製サル脂に対し400重量%以上、好ましくは400〜3000重量%の極性溶剤を混合し、冷媒による冷却装置及び攪拌装置の付いた晶析槽内で撹拌しながら0〜20℃まで徐々に冷却する。晶析時間は、冷媒温度と極性溶剤の種類によって異なるが、 0.5〜3時間程度である。晶析終了後、減圧ロ過などにより結晶部とロ液部にロ別する。ロ別した結晶部は、予め晶析温度〜晶析温度より10℃低い温度まで冷却した新鮮な極性溶剤を分別原料油脂に対し、晶析工程と洗浄工程で用いる極性溶剤総量が1000重量%以上となる量、好ましくは0〜2600重量%混合して洗浄し、再度結晶部とロ液部にロ別する。こうして得られた結晶部は、DHS−TG、DG、SSU画分が低減されSUS成分が濃縮されている。上記の晶析に用いる極性溶剤と洗浄に用いる極性溶剤の総量は、1000重量%以上、好ましくは1000〜3000重量%、最も好ましくは1100〜2100重量%である。下限未満であると、DHS−TG、DG、SSU画分の低減が不十分であり、上限を超えると極性溶剤の使用量が多すぎて分別の生産効率が低下するとともに分別後の脱溶剤工程での蒸留負荷が大きくなりすぎるため、いずれも好ましくない。   400 wt% or more, preferably 400 to 3000 wt% of a polar solvent is mixed with purified monkey fat heated to 50 to 70 ° C and completely melted, and stirred in a crystallization tank equipped with a cooling device and a stirring device using a refrigerant. While cooling, gradually cool to 0-20 ° C. The crystallization time varies depending on the refrigerant temperature and the type of polar solvent, but is about 0.5 to 3 hours. After crystallization is completed, the crystal part and the liquid part are separated by vacuum filtration or the like. The separated crystal part is a total of 1000% by weight or more of the polar solvent used in the crystallization step and the washing step with respect to the raw material oil separated from a fresh polar solvent that has been cooled to a temperature 10 ° C. lower than the crystallization temperature in advance. Then, the mixture is washed by mixing in an amount of 0 to 2600% by weight, and again separated into a crystal part and a liquid part. In the crystal part thus obtained, the DHS-TG, DG, and SSU fractions are reduced and the SUS component is concentrated. The total amount of the polar solvent used for crystallization and the polar solvent used for washing is 1000% by weight or more, preferably 1000 to 3000% by weight, and most preferably 1100 to 2100% by weight. If it is less than the lower limit, the reduction of DHS-TG, DG, and SSU fractions is insufficient, and if the upper limit is exceeded, the amount of polar solvent used is too much and the separation production efficiency decreases and the solvent removal step after the separation Neither of these is preferable because the distillation load in the tank becomes too large.

上記のサル脂精製油に対する極性溶剤総量を1000重量%以上とする、サル脂精製油の分別法は大別して下記1)、2)の2通りの方法が適用できるが、DHS−TG、DG、SSU画分のより効率的な低減には前者の方法が好適に利用できる。 The method for fractionating purified sal fat oil with the total amount of polar solvent based on the above refined fat oil being 1000% by weight or more can be broadly divided into the following two methods 1) and 2), but DHS-TG, DG, The former method can be suitably used for more efficient reduction of the SSU fraction.

1) 50〜70℃に加熱し完全融解した精製サル脂に対し400〜900重量%の極性溶剤を混合し、冷媒による冷却装置及び攪拌装置の付いた晶析槽内で撹拌しながら0〜20℃まで徐々に冷却する。晶析終了後、減圧ロ過などにより結晶部とロ液部にロ別する。ロ別した結晶部は、予め晶析温度〜晶析温度より10℃低い温度まで冷却した新鮮な極性溶剤を分別原料油脂に対し100〜600重量%混合して洗浄し、再度結晶部とロ液部にロ別する。こうして得られた結晶部を常法通り脱溶剤して得た結晶画分は、DHS−TG、DG、SSU画分が低減されているが、低品質の精製サル脂の分別ではこの段階ではかかる成分の低減が不十分であり、さらに次の再分別に供する。 1) 400 to 900% by weight of a polar solvent is mixed with refined monkey fat heated to 50 to 70 ° C. and completely melted, and 0 to 20 with stirring in a crystallization tank equipped with a cooling device and a stirring device using a refrigerant. Cool gradually to ° C. After crystallization is completed, the crystal part and the liquid part are separated by vacuum filtration or the like. The separated crystal part is washed by mixing 100 to 600% by weight of a fresh polar solvent, which has been cooled to a temperature 10 ° C. lower than the crystallization temperature in advance, with respect to the fractionated raw oil and fat. Separated into parts. In the crystal fraction obtained by removing the solvent from the crystal part obtained in the usual manner, the DHS-TG, DG, and SSU fractions are reduced. Insufficient reduction of components, and further subjected to the next re-fractionation.

上記で得られた結晶画分を50〜70℃に加熱し完全に融解してから、該結晶画分に対し400〜900重量%の極性溶剤を混合し、冷媒による冷却装置及び攪拌装置の付いた晶析槽内で撹拌しながら0〜20℃まで徐々に冷却する。晶析終了後、減圧ロ過などにより結晶部とロ液部にロ別する。ロ別した結晶部は、予め晶析温度〜晶析温度より10℃低い温度まで冷却した新鮮な極性溶剤を分別原料油脂に対し100〜600重量%混合して洗浄し、再度結晶部とロ液部にロ別する。晶析終了後、減圧ロ過などにより結晶部とロ液部にロ別する。この再分別により得られた結晶部は、DHS−TG、DG、SSU画分がさらに一段と低減されSUS成分もさらに濃縮されており、常法通り脱溶剤、精製して高品質のカカオ代用脂になりうるものである。なお、この再分別に供する結晶部は1段目の分別で得られた極性溶剤を含むものでも差し支えなく、その場合は30〜50℃に加熱し完全融解してから極性溶剤と混合して、分別すればよい。 The crystal fraction obtained above is heated to 50 to 70 ° C. and completely melted, and then 400 to 900% by weight of a polar solvent is mixed with the crystal fraction, and a cooling device and a stirring device with a refrigerant are attached. The mixture is gradually cooled to 0 to 20 ° C. with stirring in the crystallization tank. After crystallization is completed, the crystal part and the liquid part are separated by vacuum filtration or the like. The separated crystal part is washed by mixing 100 to 600% by weight of a fresh polar solvent, which has been cooled to a temperature 10 ° C. lower than the crystallization temperature in advance, with respect to the fractionated raw oil and fat. Separated into parts. After crystallization is completed, the crystal part and the liquid part are separated by vacuum filtration or the like. In the crystal part obtained by this re-fractionation, the DHS-TG, DG, and SSU fractions are further reduced and the SUS component is further concentrated. Solvent removal and purification are performed as usual to obtain high-quality cocoa substitute fat. It can be. In addition, the crystal part to be subjected to this re-fractionation may contain the polar solvent obtained in the first-stage fractionation, in which case it is heated to 30 to 50 ° C. and completely melted and then mixed with the polar solvent, What is necessary is just to separate.

上記の2段階の分別で用いる極性溶剤の総量が、サル脂精製油に対して1000重量%以上とするのが
DHS−TG,DG,SSU画分を許容範囲内に低減するために重要である。
In order to reduce the DHS-TG, DG, and SSU fractions within an allowable range, it is important that the total amount of the polar solvent used in the above two-stage fractionation is 1000% by weight or more based on the refined monkey fat. .

上記の2段階の分別法ではなく、1段階の分別法の場合は下記の手順を適用することができる。
2) 50〜70℃に加熱し完全融解した精製サル脂に対し400〜3000重量%の極性溶剤を混合し、冷媒による冷却装置及び攪拌装置の付いた晶析槽内で撹拌しながら0〜20℃まで徐々に冷却する。晶析終了後、減圧ロ過などにより結晶部とロ液部にロ別する。ロ別した結晶部は、予め晶析温度〜晶析温度より10℃低い温度まで冷却した新鮮な極性溶剤を分別原料油脂に対し0〜2600重量%混合して洗浄し、再度結晶部とロ液部にロ別する。上記の晶析及び結晶部の洗浄に用いる極性溶剤の総量は、やはりサル脂精製油に対して1000重量%以上とする必要がある。得られた結晶部から常法通り脱溶剤、精製して得られる結晶画分は、DHS−TG、DG、SSU画分が十分に低減され、SUS成分も十分に濃縮されており、高品質のカカオ代用脂になりうるものである。
In the case of a one-stage fractionation method instead of the above-described two-stage fractionation method, the following procedure can be applied.
2) 400 to 3000% by weight of a polar solvent is mixed with purified monkey fat heated to 50 to 70 ° C. and completely melted, and 0 to 20 while stirring in a crystallization tank equipped with a cooling device and a stirring device using a refrigerant. Cool gradually to ° C. After crystallization is completed, the crystal part and the liquid part are separated by vacuum filtration or the like. The separated crystal part is washed by mixing 0 to 2600% by weight of a fresh polar solvent, which has been cooled to a temperature lower than the crystallization temperature by 10 ° C. in advance, with respect to the fractionated raw material fat. Separated into parts. The total amount of the polar solvent used for the crystallization and washing of the crystal part needs to be 1000% by weight or more based on the refined monkey fat. The crystal fraction obtained by solvent removal and purification from the obtained crystal part as usual, DHS-TG, DG, SSU fraction is sufficiently reduced, SUS component is also sufficiently concentrated, high quality It can be used as a cacao substitute fat.

本発明に用いる極性溶剤としてはアセトン、メチルエチルケトン、ジエチルケトン、エチルアルコール、n‐ブチルアルコール等が例示できる。なかでもアセトンが好適に利用できる。なお、極性溶剤中の水分は2重量%以下、好ましくは1重量%以下であるのが望ましい。水分が2重量%を超えると、油脂の溶解度が低下して溶剤に対する油脂分を高くすることが困難となるので好ましくない。 Examples of the polar solvent used in the present invention include acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, diethyl ketone, ethyl alcohol, and n-butyl alcohol. Of these, acetone can be preferably used. The water content in the polar solvent is 2% by weight or less, preferably 1% by weight or less. If the water content exceeds 2% by weight, the solubility of fats and oils decreases and it becomes difficult to increase the fats and oils content in the solvent.

本発明の、サル脂精製油に対して1000重量%以上の極性溶剤を用いて分別して得られるサル脂分別油は、DHS−TG含有量が0.4重量%以下、DG含有量が0.5重量%以下、SSU画分含有量2重量%以下であるのが好ましい。 In the present invention, the oil for fractionated sal fat obtained by fractionating 1000% by weight or more of the refined oil for fat with fat has a DHS-TG content of 0.4% by weight or less and a content of DG of 0. The content is preferably 5% by weight or less and the SSU fraction content is 2% by weight or less.

本発明で得られるサル脂分別油のDHS−TG含有量は、上記のように0.4重量%以下、好ましくは0.3重量%以下、さらに好ましくは0.2重量%以下である。DHS−TGが0.4重量%を超えると、チョコレートに使用したとき、テンパリング工程でのチョコレート生地粘度上昇が顕著になり、チョコレート型流し、冷却後の型離れが低下するため好ましくない。 As described above, the DHS-TG content of the oil for fractionated monkey fat obtained in the present invention is 0.4% by weight or less, preferably 0.3% by weight or less, and more preferably 0.2% by weight or less. When DHS-TG exceeds 0.4% by weight, when used for chocolate, the increase in the chocolate dough viscosity in the tempering step becomes significant, and the chocolate mold flows and the mold release after cooling decreases, which is not preferable.

なお、本発明で得られるサル脂分別油に含まれるDHS−TGは、9,10−ジヒドロキシステアロイル−ジステアリン(StDSt)、9,10−ジヒドロキシステアロイル−ステアロイル−アラキジン(StDA)、9,10−ジヒドロキシステアロイル−ステアロイル−パルミチン(StDP)の3成分からなり、かかる3成分の合計量が0.4重量%以下であるが、好ましくはStDSt含有量が0.2重量%以下、StDA含有量が0.1重量%以下、StDP含有量が0.1重量%以下である。 In addition, DHS-TG contained in the sebum fraction oil obtained in the present invention is 9,10-dihydroxystearoyl-distearin (StDSt), 9,10-dihydroxystearoyl-stearoyl-arachidine (StDA), 9,10-dihydroxy. It is composed of three components, stearoyl-stearoyl-palmitin (StDP), and the total amount of these three components is 0.4% by weight or less. Preferably, the StDSt content is 0.2% by weight or less, and the StDA content is 0.00. 1 wt% or less, and StDP content is 0.1 wt% or less.

また、DG含有量もさらに好ましくは0.2重量%以下であり、0.5重量%を超えると、やはりチョコレートのテンパリング工程でのチョコレート生地粘度上昇が顕著になり、チョコレート型流し、冷却後の型離れが低下するため好ましくない。 In addition, the DG content is more preferably 0.2% by weight or less, and if it exceeds 0.5% by weight, the increase in the chocolate dough viscosity in the tempering process of chocolate becomes remarkable, the chocolate mold flows, and after cooling This is not preferable because mold release is reduced.

さらに、SSU画分含有量も2重量%を超えると、同様に油脂の結晶性が低下するためチョコレートテンパリング作業性が低下し、耐熱保型性やスナップ性、口溶けの低下が生じるため好ましくない。 Furthermore, if the SSU fraction content exceeds 2% by weight, the crystallinity of the oil and fat is similarly lowered, so that the chocolate tempering workability is lowered, and the heat-resistant shape retention, snapping property, and melting in the mouth are lowered, which is not preferable.

本発明の、サル脂精製油に対して1000重量%以上の極性溶剤を用いて分別して得られるサル脂分別油は、SUS含有量が85重量%以上であるのが好ましい。SUS含有量が85重量%未満であると、サル脂分別油を使用したチョコレートのスナップ性や耐熱保型性が低下し、シャープな口溶けが得られなくなるので好ましくない。 In the present invention, it is preferable that the fraction obtained by fractionation of the sal fat refined oil using a polar solvent of 1000% by weight or more has a SUS content of 85% by weight or more. If the SUS content is less than 85% by weight, the snapping property and heat-resisting shape retention property of chocolate using the sebum fraction oil will be lowered, and it will not be possible to obtain a sharp mouth melt, which is not preferable.

本発明で得られるサル脂分別油をカカオ代用脂として使用する場合、サル脂分別油のみでもカカオバター代用脂として使用可能であるが、カカオ脂、パーム脂、イリッペ油、シア脂、マンゴ核油、およびこれらの分別油、エステル交換油等の油脂を本発明のサル脂分別油に配合しても良い。
また、本発明のサル脂分別油はカカオ代用脂としてチョコレートに使用する以外にも製菓製パン用、カレー等のルー用、フライ用等の油脂として使用可能である。
When using the sebum fraction oil obtained in the present invention as a cacao substitute oil, it can be used as a cacao butter substitute oil alone, but cacao fat, palm fat, iripe oil, shea fat, mango kernel oil And oils such as these fractionated oils and transesterified oils may be blended in the monkey fat fractionated oil of the present invention.
Moreover, the oil for fractionation of monkey fat of the present invention can be used as fats and oils for confectionery bread, curry and other frying, frying, etc. in addition to being used for chocolate as a cacao substitute fat.

Note) Amount of solvent used:% by weight
* The amount of solvent used for second-stage crystallization and second-stage washing is the amount of the second-stage fractionated raw oil and fat (crystal parts obtained in the first stage), and for the fractionated raw-material fat and oil, 356% and 126%, respectively. It corresponds to.

表1にあるように、分別に使用した極性溶剤総使用量が1200〜1500重量%であった実施例1〜3は、比較例1に比べて、DHS−TG含有量%、DG含有量%、SSU画分含有量%が低い値を示し、SUS含有量は逆に高い値を示す。そのため実施例1〜3は、比較例1との対比で、固体脂含量、融点とも高く、明らかに高品質のカカオ代用脂になりうるものであった。比較例1は、DHS−TG、DG、SSU画分のいずれも十分に低減されておらず、SUS含有量もやや低いものであり、良質のカカオ代用脂になりうるものではなかった。 As shown in Table 1, Examples 1 to 3, in which the total amount of polar solvents used separately were 1200 to 1500% by weight, compared to Comparative Example 1, were DHS-TG content% and DG content%. , SSU fraction content% shows a low value, SUS content shows a high value on the contrary. Therefore, Examples 1-3 were high in solid fat content and melting point in comparison with Comparative Example 1, and could obviously be high-quality cocoa substitute fats. In Comparative Example 1, none of the DHS-TG, DG, and SSU fractions were sufficiently reduced, the SUS content was slightly low, and it could not be a high-quality cocoa substitute fat.

<測定方法>
(1)冷却曲線:英国基準分析法(British Standard Methods of Fats and fatty oils,Part 1.Physical methods,Section 1.13,Determination of cooling curve)に基づき、測定した。すなわち、サル脂分別油を 60℃、30分以上で加熱融解し、75gを100ml容試験管にいれ、16.0℃の恒温水槽で撹拌しながら冷却したときの変化を、縦軸を温度とし、横軸を経過時間としてグラフにしたものであり、サル脂分別油を冷却・結晶化したときの温度変化を示したものである。冷却曲線は、溶解した油脂が冷却されるに従い油脂の温度が下がるが、結晶化が起こると結晶化熱により油脂温度が上昇しはじめ、やがて最高温度に達すると再び下降するような温度変化をグラフにしたものである。結晶化熱により、油脂温度が上昇しはじめる温度を最下点温度(Tmin)、最高温度を最高点温度(Tmax)として、TmaxとTminの差(ΔT)が大きいほど、結晶化特性が良いとされ、チョコレートテンパリング後の離型性がよくなる傾向のため、カカオ代用脂としてより好ましい。カカオ代用脂の中でも、Cocoa Butter Equivalent(CBE)と呼ばれるカカオ脂近似の物理的性質を持つような高品質カカオ代用脂の場合は、ΔTが4.5℃以上をひとつの目安としている。

(1) Cooling curve: measured based on British Standard Methods of Fats and Fatty Oils, Part 1. Physical methods, Section 1.13, Determining of cooling curve. That is to say, when the oil fraction of monkey sebum is heated and melted at 60 ° C. for 30 minutes or longer, 75 g is placed in a 100 ml test tube and cooled with stirring in a 16.0 ° C. constant temperature water bath, and the vertical axis is the temperature. The graph shows the elapsed time on the horizontal axis, and shows the temperature change when the monkey oil fraction is cooled and crystallized. The cooling curve is a graph showing the temperature change in which the temperature of the oil and fat decreases as the dissolved oil and fat cools, but when the crystallization occurs, the temperature of the oil and fat starts to increase due to the heat of crystallization, and then decreases again when the maximum temperature is reached. It is a thing. The temperature at which the oil and fat temperature starts to rise due to crystallization heat is the lowest point temperature (Tmin), the highest temperature is the highest point temperature (Tmax), and the larger the difference (ΔT) between Tmax and Tmin, the better the crystallization characteristics. In view of the tendency to improve releasability after chocolate tempering, it is more preferable as a cacao substitute fat. Among the cocoa substitute fats, in the case of a high quality cocoa substitute fat having a physical property of cacao fat approximation called Cocoa Butter Equivalent (CBE), ΔT is set to 4.5 ° C. or more as one standard.

(2)固体脂含量:基準油脂分析試験法暫定法1−1996、固体脂含量NMR法に基づいて測定した。エージングは26℃/40時間とした。 (2) Solid fat content: measured based on provisional method 1-196 for standard fat analysis method, solid fat content NMR method. Aging was performed at 26 ° C./40 hours.

(3))融点:基準油脂分析試験法2.2.4.3−1996,軟化点(環球法)に基づいて測定した。エージングは25℃/24時間とした。 (3)) Melting point: Measured based on the standard fat and oil analysis test method 2.2.4.3-1996, softening point (ring-ball method). Aging was performed at 25 ° C./24 hours.

表2にあるように、実施例4は比較例2に比べて冷却曲線ΔTが大きく、固体脂含量も高い値を示した。この結果から、本発明の実施例1で製造したサル脂分別油を使用した実施例4は比較例2に対比して、明らかに高品質のカカオ代用脂であった。
As shown in Table 2, Example 4 showed a larger cooling curve ΔT and higher solid fat content than Comparative Example 2. From this result, Example 4 using the salfat fractionated oil produced in Example 1 of the present invention was clearly a high-quality cacao substitute fat in comparison with Comparative Example 2.

本発明は低品質サル脂の品質改良法に関し、詳しくはサル脂分別油をカカオ代用脂として利用したとき良好な結晶化特性を示すように、サル脂分別油を品質改良する方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for improving the quality of low-quality monkey fat, and more particularly to a method for improving the quality of monkey oil fraction so as to exhibit good crystallization characteristics when the monkey fat fraction is used as a cocoa substitute fat.
