A preparation method for a water-retaining nanoagent and applications thereof in a quick-frozen crustacean shrimp product, related to the technical field of food processing. The formula of the present invention comprises inulin, xylitol, carboxymethyl chitosan, pullulan, sodium tripolyphosphate, sodium chloride, and sodium alginate. The powder raw materials are mixed evenly with water and then go through a homogenizer, a colloid mill, and an ultrasound treatment to produce the water-retaining nanoagent. The method of the present invention also relates to applications of the freeze-proof water-retaining agent in freezing a crustacean aquatic product.

Disclosed is a method of manufacturing marinated tuna for a tuna burger, and more particularly to a method of manufacturing marinated tuna for a tuna burger, in which tuna is covered or mixed with a marinating mixture for removing a fishy taste from the tuna and kept refrigerated, so that the unique flavor or smell and fishy taste of the tuner, which consumers do not like, can disappear while improving the texture of the tuna, thereby providing the tuna burger that the majority of ordinary consumers will like.

The invention relates to a process for treating food, in particular for curing meat, comprising adding to the food a compound of Formula III, which is a derivative of S-nitroso-cysteine. Use of the compound of Formula III as food preservative and compositions for curing meat are also provided by the invention.

A preparation method of dried scallop is provided and includes: pretreating scallops, impregnating the pretreated scallops with one of the mixed solution of konjac glucomannan and sodium salt, the mixed solution of carrageenan and sodium salt, and the mixed solution of sodium alginate and sodium salt; and then drying the impregnated scallop. The preparation method effectively prevents scallop from cracking, scattering and other quality deterioration during high-temperature drying. The dried scallop processed in this way presents a high rehydration rate. After rehydration, the dried scallop has moderate hardness, high elasticity and good color, good quality and good flavor.

The present invention includes a method and method for preserving a fish or seafood product comprising: contacting an emulsion with a meat product for a time sufficient to, wherein the emulsion comprises by weight: 10% to 50% water, 0.1 to 4.0% Quillaja, 0.1% to 8% meat flavoring, 60% to 85% high oleic sunflower oil, meat seasoning, 0-2.0% salt; salt, and optionally adding one or more stabilizers; a first pasteurizing step; vacuum packing the fish or seafood in a moisture and oxygen-impermeable packaging film; a second pasteurizing step.

A method for rapid low-salted pickling of aquatic products is disclosed, which includes preliminary processing of raw materials, bacteria-reducing treatment of plasma activation gas, marinade adding and plasma treatment, cyclic bacteria-reducing treatment with the plasma activation gas and vacuum pickling. The marinade adding and plasma treatment include respectively injecting the marinade and plasma working gas into a tumbler, with a flow rate of ionic working gas injected into the tumbler of 1.5-2 L/min and a flow rate of a pickling solution of 0.5-0.8 L/min: and at the same time, starting a plasma power supply, and performing low-temperature plasma treatment on the aquatic products to be pickled, with a plasma treatment voltage of 12000-15000 V, a current of 60-80 mA, a frequency of 8-10 kHz, which is a second bacteria-reducing treatment, with plasma treatment time of 15-20 min.

A method of preparing seasoned raw pollock includes cutting pollock flesh from pollock of which skin has been removed, preparing a salt mixture by adding Euphorbia humifusa powder and Dryopteris crassirhizoma powder to deep sea water brine, salting the pollock flesh in the salt mixture; preparing a vinegar mixture by adding Ixeris dentata powder and Androsace umbellata powder to vinegar water, performing fermentation by immersing the salted pollock flesh in the vinegar mixture, and mixing the fermented pollock flesh with salt, red pepper powder, garlic, ginger, sugar, syrup, vinegar, and sesame. Seasoned raw pollock is prepared by using the method, and a processed food is produced by using the seasoned raw pollock.

The present invention relates to a set of brine solutions for use in a method for in-line processing of food products, said method comprises the steps of a) co-extruding a food dough into a flow of co-extruded food products having a coating that comprises a protein, or a hybrid coating of a protein and a polymer, and b) subjecting the flow of co-extruded food products to a food product strengthening step, said food product strengthening step comprises the step of subjecting the flow of food products to a first brine solution comprising a salt solubilised in an aqueous medium, and a second brine solution comprising a buffer salt solubilised in an aqueous medium. The present invention further relates to a method for in-line processing of food products using the set of brine solutions of the present invention and a lactate salt comprising brine solution.

The present invention relates to a particulate food preservative composition comprising at least 60 wt. % of preservation granules having a diameter in the range of 150-1800 μm, wherein the preservation granules are compacted agglomerates of: a. particles containing at least 90 wt. % of the chloride salt and b. particles containing at least 70 wt. % of the alkali metal salt of organic acid, said preservation granules comprising (i) at least 20 wt. % of chloride salt selected from sodium chloride, potassium chloride, magnesium chloride and combinations thereof; and (ii) at least 20 wt. % of an alkali metal salt of an organic acid selected from acetic acid, lactic acid, propionic acid and combinations thereof; the combination of the chloride salt and the alkali metal salt of an organic acid constituting at least 80 wt. % of the dry matter that is contained in the preservation granules.

The preservative composition of the present invention can be used to preserve fresh foods, such as fish, meat and vegetables and is particularly effective against micro-organisms having a high salt tolerance (halotolerant), such as Listeria monocytogenes.
