Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a technique of suppressing precipitation of an anthocyanin pigment in a range other than the highly acidic range. The present invention provides an anthocyanin pigment preparation, comprising: an anthocyanin pigment; and an emulsifier, wherein the pH when the anthocyanin pigment preparation is diluted with water or dissolved in water so that a color value becomes 10 is more than 3.
Claims2
A method for suppressing generation of precipitates of an anthocyanin pigment in a pH range of 3.5 to 7, the method comprising of bringing an anthocyanin pigment in which precipitates are not generated into contact with an emulsifier, wherein the emulsifier present in an amount of 0.01 wt % or more, based on a color value of 1 of the anthocyanin pigment, and
- the emulsifier is one or more selected from the group consisting of quillaia extracts, pectin, gum arabic, gum ghatti, xanthan gum, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and water-soluble soybean polysaccharides.
