A method for preparing persimmon jam by using a persimmon and Prunus mume, and a packaging container for the long-term storage and convenient use thereof. The method for preparing persimmon jam by using a persimmon and Prunus mume provides storability and the specific flavor and taste of persimmon jam by adding a functional material of Prunus mume to semi-dried persimmons so as to prepare the persimmon jam, and a packaging container provides the long-term storage and convenient use.
摘要:
A non-liquid particulate fruit product and method for its manufacture which has a natural fruit flavor and which can be formed in desired configurations and sizes is described. The fruit ingredient can be derived from such fruits as blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, raspberries, etc. There is added to the fruit product pectin, liquid glucose, sodium citrate and sugar (e.g. sucrose). These ingredients are combined in a certain sequence. The mixture is brought to a boiling point to boil off a portion of the water. At a later time in the boiling of the mixture, a large portion of the sucrose is added to lower the temperature. The mixture is fed through a heating unit to raise the temperature of small quantities in the mixture very rapidly. Acid is added, and then the mixture is form in the desired shape, such as being dispensed as droplets onto a conveyor belt, where the droplets form into the particulate fruit product.
摘要:
Novel crystalline maltosyl glucoside is obtained by crystallizing maltosyl glucoside from a maltosyl glucoside solution, prepared by exposing either an aqueous solution containing trehalose and an .alpha.-glucosyl saccharide or an aqueous solution containing a reducing partial starch hydrolysate to the action of a saccharide-transferring enzyme. The crystalline maltosyl glucoside has non-hygroscopicity, non-reducibility, superior solubility, less fermentability, and other properties of stabilizing oligopeptides and biologically-substances as well as preventing retrogradation of amylaceous substances. These features render it very useful in various compositions including foods, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and shaped bodies.

Glucosyltransferase inhibitors containing as an active ingredient an extract of fermented tea leaves are described. Illustrative examples of the fermented tea leaves include Oolong tea, black tea and Pu-erh tea. Also described are foods or beverages for the prevention of dental caries, which contain an effective amount of one of such inhibitors. Dental caries can be prevented by taking such foods or beverages.
摘要:
An edible fruit spread in a form similar to a jelly or jam having improved texture and flavor characteristics and a decreased dissipation rate in the mouth during consumption is prepared by incorporating a pectin, starch, cellulose, carrageenan or protein based fat mimetic into a fruit spread recipe.
摘要:
A low-calorie food or foodstuff includes chopped gel-particles of a neutral, complete coagulum including glucomannan as a main component . Such foods include drinks such as fruit drinks, fluid foods such as a potage, and solid foods in coexistence with a natural polysaccharide or edible emulsifier, such as jam, custard pudding and meat balls. The low-calorie foodstuff retains the original particular touch or taste of a food including the gel-particles.
摘要:
A process for making a pimento paste is disclosed. Here pimento paste is formed from ground pimento, water, sodium alginate and guar gum. Next the formed balls are dropped into a gelling bath which contains calcium chloride.
摘要:
Thermo-irreversible aqueous gels are prepared by subjecting a gellable combination of xanthan gum and a glucomannan gum, preferably from the corms of an Amorphophallus species at a pH above 6 to a heat treatment under conditions of temperature and time to cause the gel to become thermo irreversible. The pH is preferably between 6 and 10 and more especially between 6 and 8. The preferred ratio of xanthan gum to glucomannan is in the range of from 5:95 to 95:5, more especially 1:10 to 10:1 and the preferred concentration of xanthan gum and glucomannan in the aqueous phase is 0.02% to 6%, more preferably 0.5 to 4%, by weight. The thermo irreversible gels of the invention, with the inclusion of food materials, such as minced meat, fruit and vegetables, simulate the texture of natural meat offals and other food structures.
摘要:
A mixture of pectin, an edible mono- or disaccharide, an edible organic acid, an edible salt of an organic acid, and at least one further ingredient of the group consisting of fruit pulp, fruit juice, syrup, flavoring agents, coloring agents, and water, when sterilized and maintained under sterile conditions, has a long storage life and is quickly converted to an edible gel at ambient temperature by mixing with an edible source of calcium ions, such as milk. For a gel of pleasant taste and texture, the initial mixture should contain, per gram of pectin, 2.5 to 30 g of the saccharide, 0.15 to 0.75 g organic acid, 22.3 to 85 g water. It should further contain 1 g to 1.5 g of the organic acid salt per gram of the organic acid, and enough of the acid and salt to make the pH of the mixture 3.0 to 4.3. 25 to 40% of the carboxyl groups in the pectin are to be esterified with methanol.
