Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to marbling meat such as beef and tro meat such as bonito, tuna, and red salmon. The present invention relates to a marbled meat-like pet food having an appearance substantially similar to that of (1) and its manufacturing method.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, a method has been proposed in which soybean flour, wheat flour, barley flour, propylene glycol, saccharose, and other raw materials are added to and mixed with emulsified meat, and this is processed in a grain extruder to make a puffed semi-moist pet food. (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 50-18263
issue).

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

However, the pet food obtained by the above-mentioned conventional method contains a large amount of powder raw materials and the raw materials used are homogeneously mixed, resulting in a cheap sausage-like appearance and a good appearance. Since there is no pet food, there is a problem that the pet owners of dogs and cats do not want to buy the pet food.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and a marbling meat-like pet food having an appearance that is not inferior even when compared with marbling meat such as beef or bonito, tuna, and red salmon that are considered to be high-quality meat. The purpose is to provide the manufacturing method.

The present inventor, after various studies, kneaded by adding a creamy white turbid liquid in which egg shell powder is dispersed in edible alcohol to kneaded meat such as poultry meat, livestock meat, fish meat, etc., to obtain a cut surface of the kneaded product. The present invention has been completed, and it was found that the product has a white pattern such as a thread-like shape or a band-like shape and exhibits a state like marbling meat such as beef, bonito, tuna, and red salmon.

[Means for solving problems]

That is, the marbling meat-like pet food of the present invention comprises a kneaded product of a layer containing surimi as a main component and a layer containing egg shell powder as a main component, and has a cut surface having a striped pattern. Further, the method for producing a marbling meat-like pet food of the present invention is characterized in that egg shell powder dispersed in alcohol is added to a surimi and kneaded, followed by heating.

Hereinafter, the marbling meat-like pet food of the present invention and its manufacturing method will be described in detail.

In order to manufacture the pet food of the present invention, first, the raw material surimi and eggshell powder are prepared. As the surimi, one or more kinds of poultry meat, livestock meat, fish meat, etc. processed with or without bones into a paste form are used, but when the color tone of the surimi is not reddish It is desirable to add a coloring agent such as a yellow pigment or a red pigment to impart a redness close to that of natural red meat.

Further, as the egg shell powder, one obtained by drying the egg shell and then pulverizing it or firing the egg shell at high temperature and then pulverizing it may be used. However, oyster shell powder and bone powder, which have the same calcium content as egg shells, are unsuitable because the cut surface cannot be made into a marbling pattern even if they are kneaded with the surimi, probably because the specific gravity is too large. The eggshell powder used in the present invention has a particle size of 100 μm or less, preferably 1 because the finer the particle size, the more likely it is to have a white pattern when kneaded with surimi.
It is preferable to use one having a size of 0 to 50 μm. An appropriate amount of egg shell powder to be blended is 0.1 to 20% (weight%, the same applies hereinafter) based on all raw materials. This is because, as shown in Test Example 1, when the content is less than 0.1%, the cut surface of the obtained product has a striped pattern (a white pattern is formed in a layer in a reddish surimi,
The same shall apply hereafter), and if the content exceeds 25% on the other hand, the binding condition of the obtained product will be poor and the color of the cut surface of the product will be too white, so that the owner of the dog or cat will be motivated to purchase. This is because it does not become a bad thing. In the present invention, according to preference, in addition to essential ingredients such as surimi and egg shell powder, alcohol, egg white, dextrin, gluten and other binders, salt, polymeric phosphate, sorbic acid, caramel, seasonings such as sugar, An extract component such as beef extract, bonito meat extract, tuna meat extract, and red salmon meat extract, and a bulking agent such as potato starch and colflo can be added in appropriate amounts.

Next, the prepared eggshell powder is dispersed in alcohol to obtain a creamy white turbid liquid. As shown in Test Example 2, the composition of this creamy white turbid liquid was egg shell powder: alcohol 1: 1.
It is appropriate to set the ratio to 2: 1 (weight ratio). As the alcohol used here, ethanol and polyhydric alcohols (for example, propylene glycol and glycerin) among edible alcohols may be used. In the case of polyhydric alcohol, it is desirable to use one having a high degree of purity, but in the case of ethanol, as shown in Test Example 3, the alcohol concentration is 20 to 70%, preferably 30 to 60%. Should be used. This is because when the concentration is less than 20%, the state of egg shell powder dispersion becomes poor, while when it exceeds 70%, the viscosity of the cloudy liquid becomes too loose, and in any case, a white pattern appears on the cross section of the obtained product. It is not preferable because it is difficult to form. Then, when water is used instead of the alcohol, the white pattern line appearing in the cross section of the obtained product becomes messy, and the product easily breaks along the white pattern line. Can not be achieved.

Finally, add the eggshell powder to the surimi (which may be a mixture of an appropriate amount of binder, seasoning, extract, coloring and extender, and mix them with a silent cutter or mixer until homogenous). While adding a creamy white turbid liquid consisting of a polyhydric alcohol (or ethanol) little by little, knead the surimi with the creamy white turbid liquid using a spatula or the like. When the number of kneading is large, the cloudy liquid is well dispersed in the surimi, and a kneaded product having a fine striped cut surface is obtained. On the other hand, when the number of kneading is small, the cloudy liquid is relatively large in the surimi. Since the layer is formed, a kneaded product having a striped striped cut surface is obtained. However, if the surimi and the creamy cloudy liquid are not kneaded together but are stirred with a mixer or the like, the two will be completely mixed, so that the above-mentioned striped pattern does not occur on the cut surface of the product.

The kneaded product thus obtained does not have a shape-retaining property and cannot be directly produced as a product. Therefore, the kneaded product is heated by an appropriate means. As an example, the kneaded product is divided into a plurality of flat metal containers and charged, charged into a steam box, boiled at 90 to 100 ° C. for 90 to 120 minutes, and then cooled to obtain a molded product. If necessary, this molded product is taken out from the flat container and cut into a die shape or the like to obtain a marbling meat-like pet food having a striped cut surface.

[Work]

Although the cutting surface of the marbling meat-like pet food of the present invention has a striped pattern and has not been deeply researched as to how it looks like marbling meat, the pancreas and eggshell powder are originally difficult to mix and easily separated. There is a property, therefore, when eggshell powder dispersed in alcohol is added to the surimi and kneaded,
A kneaded product in which a layer mainly composed of surimi and a layer mainly composed of eggshell powder are overlapped with each other is formed, and therefore, when the kneaded product is cut, these layers appear as a striped pattern on the cut surface. It is presumed to be a thing.

〔Example〕

 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to Examples.

Example 1 Chicken meat (CCM: trade name, made by Kewpie Tamago Co., Ltd.) 4Kg, salted 0.05Pg, sodium acid pyrophosphate 0.02K

0.2Kg, caramel 0.03Kg, fresh water 0.9Kg, food yellow dye No. 5 trace, food red dye No. 106 trace add and mix for 6 minutes, then sugar 1Kg, dextrin 1Kg, gluten 0.3Kg
And mix for 5 minutes, and finally potato starch 1.5K
g and 0.8 kg of propylene glycol were added and mixed for 5 minutes to obtain about 10 kg of a reddish paste-like mixture. Separately, 0.2 kg of eggshell powder was dispersed in 0.2 kg of propylene glycol in a ball container to obtain a creamy cloudy liquid. Weigh 1 Kg of the pasty mixture, pour 0.04 Kg of the creamy white turbid liquid into it, and use a spatula to wrap the white turbid liquid into the paste from the center to the outside, then from the outside to the center. When the paste-like mixture was folded into several parts and this was repeated once or twice, the cut surface of the kneaded product became a white layer like the fat layer of marbling beef. Approximately 1 kg of the kneaded product thus obtained was transferred to a metal flat container (thickness 100 m / m, internal volume 1.1), and after repeating this procedure several times, the whole flat container was heated in a steam box at 95 ° C for 120 ° C. Cooked for minutes. After air cooling, cut into 8-9 m / m square dies, vacuum-packed in a retort pouch,
This is retorted at 120 ° C for 30 minutes,
A marbling beef-like pet food according to the present invention was obtained. The pet food thus obtained has a wet feeling even after being heated by the retort treatment (water activity Aw 0.85, water content 51%) and has a white band-like pattern (striped pattern) in the red meat. It had the same appearance as natural marbling beef with the addition of calcium.

Example 2 To a silent cutter, 4Kg of fish meat paste (second grade product), which was whole ground Alaska pollack surimi, secondary salt 0.05Kg, sodium acid pyrophosphate 0.02Kg were added and mixed for 6 minutes, then egg white 1.3Kg, potassium sorbate 0.04Kg, Bonito extract 0.4K
g, caramel 0.03Kg, fresh water 0.9Kg, food yellow dye 5 trace amount, food red dye 106 trace amount and mix for 6 minutes, and further sugar 1Kg, dextrin 1Kg, gluten 0.3Kg
, Mix for 5 minutes, and finally Kolfuro 1.5Kg,
0.5 kg of propylene glycol was added and mixed for 5 minutes to obtain about 11 kg of a paste-like mixture having a light red color.
Transfer all of this paste-like mixture to a kettle equipped with stirring blades, and gently rotate the stirring blade that is slidable in the radial direction of the kettle while 0.5 kg of propylene glycol and 0.5 kg of eggshell powder.
1 kg of a creamy white turbid liquid obtained by dispersing the mixture was poured along a stirring blade in small amounts, and the pasty mixture was kneaded.The cut surface of the kneaded product was white, like the fat layer of marbling bonito meat. It became layered. About 1K of kneaded product obtained in this way
Each g was weighed and housed in a metal flat container (thickness 100 m / m, internal volume 1.1), and these were steamed at 97 ° C. for 100 minutes in a steam box. After air cooling, it was cut into 8-9 m / m square dice to obtain the marbling bonito-like pet food according to the present invention. The pet food thus obtained has a wet feeling (water activity Aw 0.86, water content 56%), has a white dense thread-like pattern (striped pattern) in the light reddish flesh, and is reinforced with calcium. It had the same appearance as natural marbled bonito meat.

[Test example]
