The invention belongs to the technical field of
food processing, and particularly relates to jelly with high transparency, high elasticity and high
toughness and a preparation method of the jelly. According to the jelly disclosed by the invention,
xanthan gum and
locust bean gum are used for substituting konjaku flour in the prior art, besides, a compounding
thickening agent consists of the
xanthan gum, the
locust bean gum and other components in definite proportion, so that the components in the compounding
thickening agent have synergistic reactions, under the condition that the konjaku flour is not added, high elasticity and high
toughness of the jelly are maintained, and besides, the transparency of the jelly is obviously promoted. The
transmittance of the jelly is as high as 95% which is close to that of water, so that the jelly is glittering and translucent like crystals, the grade of the jelly is promoted, and the limit that the jelly has the elasticity and the
toughness only by when the konjaku flour in the prior art is added can be broken through. According to the jelly disclosed by the invention, substances are taken and used according to a specific proportion, so that the compounding
thickening agent is formed into a stable mesh structure, the hard and brittle properties of the jelly produced from several kinds of
colloid disclosed by the invention in the prior art are reduced, and the transparency is improved. The
locust bean gum is applied, so that an obvious
water retention effect can be realized, and the water releasing amount of the surface of the
colloid is greatly reduced.
