Abstract

The disclosure relates to a preparation method of eel polypeptide flavor extract, the eel polypeptide flavor extract, and the eel sauce. The preparation method of the eel polypeptide flavor extract includes the following steps: obtained by using eel processing by-products, eel cutting off the main meat tissues, successively performing microbial fermentation, Maillard reaction and extraction and separation processes. The eel polypeptide extract obtained above is used to making a condiment eel sauce. The eel sauce is nutritious and convenient, it can be used directly for table eating or served as cooking condiments to enhance the aroma and taste of dishes and increase the attractiveness of dishes. The disclosure realizes a new technological research on the preparation of polypeptide and flavor products, opens up a scientific utilization and processing method of seafood processing by-products, and provides a new way for making full use of such resources.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method of producing eel polypeptide flavor extract, wherein taking eel processing by-products as raw materials, comprising:
performing microbial fermentation on said raw materials;
performing Maillard reaction on the fermentation liquid obtained after the microbial fermentation to form a mixture; and
performing an extraction-separation process on said mixture after said Maillard reaction is completed, to obtain the eel polypeptide flavor extract;

wherein the eel processing by-products include one or more of a fish head, a fish tail, a fish belly, a fish fin, a fish bone, fish meat of eel;
wherein the performing the microbial fermentation comprises
sterilizing the raw materials, and inoculating and culturing Mucor strains at a constant temperature of 23° C. to 28° C. for 40 to 48 hours to obtain fermented eel processing by-products;
mixing the fermented eel processing by-products, saltwater and rice wine at a mass ratio of 1:0.55-0.75:0.35-0.55, wherein the rice wine comprises 20% to 40% alcohol by volume, and the concentration of the saltwater is approximately 16 to 20 degrees Baume; and performing fermentation, and after fermentation, squeezing to obtain a fermentation liquid;

wherein the extraction-separation process comprises separating the mixture after said Maillard reaction is completed to obtain an extract comprising polypeptides with molecular weight less than 100 kDa.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein inoculating the Mucor strains comprises evenly spraying Mucor spore liquid on the raw materials, wherein a dosage of the Mucor spore liquid is 0.3 wt. % of the weight of the raw materials.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the Maillard reaction comprises adding 8% to 12% white sugar to the fermentation liquid obtained from the raw materials after said microbial fermentation, and reacting at 110° C. to 130° C. for 60 to 90 min.
