Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/018200
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A food product sustaining a favorable taste and having good keeping qualities
can be obtained by aging the food under ice-cooling at 5°C to -25°C.
Namely, a process for producing chirimen (boiled and dried young sardines)
characterized by involving the following steps, i.e., the steps (3 and 4) of aging
under ice-cooling at 5°C to -25°C young fish such as Engraulis
japonicus (2) having been boiled in water containing from 3% to 10% of sodium
chloride; the step (7) of thawing the frozen material (4) having been frozen at
-23°C to -25°C under ice-cooling; the step (8) of vacuum packing the
material having been thawed under ice-cooling; and the step (9) of heating it
under elevated pressure. Owing to the aging procedure under ice-cooling at 5°C
to -25°C , the product obtained by this process contains free amino acids
in an elevated amount and thus sustains the favorable taste of the starting material
even after the pasteurization by heating under elevated pressure and has good
keeping qualities. Therefore, the product suffers from little wastage and can
be stored in refrigerator both for business use (schools, hospitals and so on)
and for domestic use, which makes it possible to find a new market.
