Abstract
Abstract The present invention relates to a method of separating meat from fish while immersed in water or an aqueous solution of alkaline salts, saccharide and/or amino acids. Hitherto the fish meat has been separated from fish in air, so that the freshness of meat has rapidly deteriorated, but the present invention can prevent such a drawback. When the boiled fish paste is produced by use of fish meat which has been prevented from the deterioration of freshness, it is possible to obtain a boiled fish paste of a higher gel strength, in other words, one of a higher quality having good mouth feel.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
82 words
A method of treating fish comprising separating the meat from the whole fish whose heads and organs have been removed, blocks of such fish or fillets of such fish, while submerged in water or in an aqueous solution containing 0.1-20% of at least one member selected from the group consisting of sorbitol, dextrin, sucrose, sodium glutamate, glycine, sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, disodium phosphate and polymerized sodium phosphate, whereby rapid deterioration caused by breakdown of meat cells during meat separation is substantially avoided.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
82 words
A method of treating fish comprising separating the meat from the whole fish whose heads and organs have been removed, blocks of such fish or fillets of such fish, while submerged in water or in an aqueous solution containing 0.1-20% of at least one member selected from the group consisting of sorbitol, dextrin, sucrose, sodium glutamate, glycine, sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, disodium phosphate and polymerized sodium phosphate, whereby rapid deterioration caused by breakdown of meat cells during meat separation is substantially avoided.
Claim 3
Independent Claim
125 words
A method of producing minced fish meat comprising separating the meat from whole fish whose heads and organs have been removed, blocks of such fish or fillets of such fish, while submerged in water or in an aqueous solution containing 0.1-20% of at least one member selected from the group consisting of sorbitol, dextrin, sucrose, sodium glutamate, glycine, sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, disodium phosphate and polymerized sodium phosphate, whereby rapid deterioration caused by breakdown of meat cells during meat separation is substantially avoided, and then bleaching the obtained fish meat by use of water or an aqueous solution containing at least one member selected from the group consisting of sorbitol, dextrin, sucrose, sodium glutamate, glycine, sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, disodium phosphate and polymerized sodium phosphate.
Claim 4
Independent Claim
125 words
A method of producing minced fish meat comprising separating the meat from whole fish whose heads and organs have been removed, blocks of such fish or fillets of such fish, while submerged in water or in an aqueous solution containing 0.1-20% of at least one member selected from the group consisting of sorbitol, dextrin, sucrose, sodium glutamate, glycine, sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, disodium phosphate and polymerized sodium phosphate, whereby rapid deterioration caused by breakdown of meat cells during meat separation is substantially avoided, and then bleaching the obtained fish meat by use of water or an aqueous solution containing at least one member selected from the group consisting of sorbitol, dextrin, sucrose, sodium glutamate, glycine, sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, disodium phosphate and polymerized sodium phosphate.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
32 words
A method in accordance with one of claims 1 or 2, wherein said separating step takes place while submerged in an aqueous solution containing 0.5-3% of at least one of said members.
