The present invention relates to a method of production of frozen surimi not containing polyphosphate additives, in which carbonates and/or bicarbonates in combination with an organic acid salt are added to dehydrated minced fish meat to adjust the pH value to less than 7.5. The obtained surimi and surimi based products have an excellent whiteness and good elasticity (ashi).

Production of frozen surimi

The present invention relates to a method of producing frozen surimi that does not contain a substantial amount of phosphate additives. According to the disclosed method, carbonates and/or bicarbonates in combination with an organic alkaline salt are added to dehydrated minced fish meat to adjust the pH value of the meat to less than 7.5, and the obtained surimi and surimi based products have an excellent whiteness and good elasticity.

The present invention provides a dehydrating reagent which, in the production of frozen ground fish meat, enables the dehydration of fish meat after washing with water and improves the quality of frozen ground fish meat obtained. Such effects are achieved by the combination of magnesium and/or calcium ions and sodium ions.

Process of using a dehydration reagent for washed fish heat

A liquid bactericide for foods and food processing machines or utensils, said bactericide comprising as active ingredients 98.0 to 2.3% (W/V) of ethyl alcohol, 1.0 to 96.7% (W/V) of an organic acid selected from the group consisting of lactic acid, acetic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, gluconic acid, malic acid, ascorbic acid and phytic acid and 1.0 to 96.7% (W/V) of phosphoric acid; said bactericide being capable of sterilizing within 30 seconds when used in an aqueous solution, such that the concentration of active ingredients in solution consists of 14 to 1% (W/V) of ethyl alcohol, 13.0 to 0.3% (W/V) of said organic acid and 0.7 to 0.03% (W/V) of phosphoric acid.

Liquid bactericide for foods and food processing machines or utensils,

An aqueous sterilizing agent for foods or food processing machines and utensils, comprising an aqueous solution containing about 0.5 to 75% by weight ethanol, an alkali carbonate selected from the group consisting of sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate and a trialkali phosphate selected from the group consisting of trisodium phosphate and tripotassium phosphate wherein the combined amount of the carbonate and phosphate is about 0.5 to 40% by weight; and a method of sterilizing foods or food processing machines and utensils, which comprises contacting the foods or food processing machines and utensils with the above aqueous sterilizing agent.

Aqueous sterilizing agent for foods or food processing machines and

A process for producing a refrigerated minced flesh of fish, which comprises adding (a) a sugar and/or a sugar alcohol and (b) lactalbumin and/or blood plasma to a dehydrated fish flesh, mincing the mixture and then refrigerating the minced product.

A process for producing meat cured products having antibotulinal activity, which comprises separately adding to meat ascorbic acid or its salt and/or erythorbic acid or its salt in the form of a powder or aqueous solution and (B) a nitrite salt in the form of a powder or aqueous solution.

Process for producing cured meat products having antibotulinal activity

A process for inhibiting growth of Clostridium botulinum and formation of nitrosamines in pork which comprises separately adding to the pork (A) a liquid or powdery additive composition containing sorbic acid or potassium sorbate and optionally (A') a powdery or liquid additive composition containing at least one of such reducing agents as ascorbic acid or its salts, erythorbic acid or its salts, higher fatty acid esters of ascorbic acid and erythorbic acid, higher acetals of ascorbic acid and erythorbic acid and tocopherols, and (B) a liquid or powdery curing agent containing nitrite.

Process for inhibiting growth of Clostridium botulinum and formation of

An improved method for producing refrigerated flesh of fish, which comprises mixing ground fish flesh with (1) a powdery or granular solid colloid composed of 70 to 99% by weight of a crystallized and stabilized solid sugar alcohol such as sorbitol and 30 to 1% by weight of fine particles of an oil or fat such as colza oil dispersed in the sugar alcohol and (2) a powdery or granular polyphosphate, and refrigerating the mixture. The amounts of additives (1) and (2) are 1 to 10%, and 0.1 to 0.5%, respectively, based on the weight of the ground flesh. Pastes (such as 'kamaboko') of seafood prepared from the refrigerated fish have better whiteness and elasticity than conventional products.

Method for producing refrigerated ground flesh of fish of high elasticity

A process for making bacon having antibotulinal stability, comprising adding to pork, which has been cured with a curing agent so as to contain no more than 30 ppm of nitrite radical (NO.sub.2.sup.-) and not higher than 0.26% of potassium sorbate based on the weight of meat, an aqueous solution of a water-soluble organic acid and/or inorganic acid, and optionally sodium hexametaphosphate, thereby lowering the average pH of the bacon to approximately 6.0 or below.

Process for making bacon having antibotulinal stability

A process for the preparation of botulinal-resistant meat products, which comprises adding to the starting meat sorbic acid or potassium sorbate, glycerol monoester of C.sub.10 - or C.sub.12 -fatty acid, and the minimum amount necessary, for the product's color development, of a nitrous acid compound; or a process for the preparation of botulinal-resistant meat products, which comprises adding to the starting meat sorbic acid or potassium sorbate, glycerol monoester of C.sub.10 - or C.sub.12 - fatty acid and sodium hexametaphosphate; or a process for the preparation of botulinal-resistant meat products, which comprises adding to the starting meat sorbic acid or potassium sorbate, glycerol monoester of C.sub.10 - or C.sub.12 -fatty acid, sodium hexametaphosphate and the minimum necessary amount, for the product's color development, of a nitrous acid compound.
