Preparation of Shikhae with Starch Hydrolysing Enzymes/Malt Mixture in Tea-bag

전분 분해효소 첨가와 종이봉지를 이용한 식혜의 제조 방법

As an improved preparation method of Shikhae, a tea-bag system containing malt and amylolytic enzymes was developed in which extraction of malt enzymes and saccharification occured efficiently. The amylolytic activity of the malt was increased by adding the mixture of ${\alpha}-amylase$, glucoamylase and glucoisomerase. Malt and the mixture of enzymes were placed in tea-bag $(16{\times}20cm)$, extracted in water at $30-40^{\circ}C$ for 1-2 hours and followed by saccharification of the cooked rice at $60-70^{\circ}C$ for 3-4 hours. In the conventional Shikhae, content of maltose was about 50% and that of oligosaccharides larger than trisaccharides was about 40% of total sugar. The content of monosaccharides such as glucose and fructose was about 95% and this improved method would be effective for increasing the sweetness and the monosaccharide contents in the product.

제조방법이 간편하고 감미도가 높은 새로운 식혜 제조 방법을 개발하였다. 역가가 높은 엿기름만을 분획하여 Tea-bag$(16{\times}20cm)$에 넣어 엿기름 추출공정을 간편하게 하였으며 여기에 ${\alpha}-amylase$, glucoamylase, glucoisomerase를 첨가하여 쌀 전분의 분해를 촉진시켜 단맛이 강한 단당류로 분해되도록 하였다. 식혜의 제조는 엿기름과 효소를 넣은 Tea-bag을 물로 추출한 후 여기에 고두밥을 넣어 당화시켰다. 재래식 방법에 의하여 만든 식혜의 당 조성은 fructose 1.8%, glucose 7.5%, maltose 49.5%, DP3 8.6% 그리고 DP4 이상이 32.5%이었으나 본 연구에서 개발된 방법에 의하여 제조한 식혜는 fructose 6.7%, glucose 89.0%, maltose 1.9%, DP3 0.9% 그리고 DP4 이상이 1.6%로 나타나 쌀 전분의 대부분이 단당류로 분해가 되어 설탕 첨가없이도 감미가 높은 식혜를 제조할 수 있었다.
