PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a production method of black garlic extract in a state that highly bioactive substances (e.g. S-allyl cysteine and cyclo alliin) are preserved through a short-time treatment by simple means, without consuming time in humidity control of garlic raw material or the like.SOLUTION: Garlic raw material (e.g. dried garlic, raw garlic, and salted garlic) is extracted with water to produce an extract. The production method of black garlic extract includes heating and aging the extract at a temperature of 90°C or higher. A black garlic extract is produced by the method. A food and drink product includes the black garlic extract.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】ニンニク原料を湿度の管理等の手間を必要としない簡便な手段で短時間の処理で高生理活性物質(S-アリルシステイン、シクロアリイン等)を維持した状態で黒ニンニクエキスを製造する技術を提供する。【解決手段】ニンニク原料(乾燥ニンニク、生ニンニク、塩蔵ニンニク等)を水による抽出処理に付して得られる抽出物を、90℃以上の温度で加熱熟成させることを特徴とする黒ニンニクエキスの製造方法。上記の方法により製造される黒ニンニクエキス、および該黒ニンニクエキスを含むことを特徴とする飲食品。【選択図】なし
