Abstract:
A dried noodle having a porosity in a cross-sectional area of the noodle of from 0.1 to 15%, a unit porosity in the cross-sectional area of the noodle of from 0.01 to 1%, a gelatinization degree of 30 to 75% and a porous structure, the dried noodle being produced by a process including (a) preparing a noodle dough comprising a main raw material, water and a powder oil, which is entirely derived from an oil, in an amount of more than 0.5% by weight and less than 6% by weight with respect to a total weight of the main raw material, (b) forming a raw noodle body from the noodle dough, and (c) subjecting the raw noodle body to an airflow at a temperature of 90 to 150° C. to evaporate the water, thereby foaming, drying and gelatinizing the raw noodle body, wherein the entire process does not include steaming.
Abstract:
Provided is dried pasta having no or very little cracking and a manufacturing method therefor. The method for manufacturing dried pasta comprises a drying step of drying pasta noodle strands to reach the percentage of water content of 14% or less under an environment maintained at a temperature of 75 to 95° C. and humidity of 60 to 90%; a heating step of heating, after the drying step, the pasta noodle strands for 10 to 120 minutes under an environment maintained at a temperature lower by at least 15° C. than the temperature in the drying step and within a range of 50 to 80° C., and humidity of 60 to 90%; and a cooling step of cooling, after the heating step, the pasta noodle strands for 10 to 60 minutes under an environment maintained at a temperature of 20 to 40° C. and humidity of 40 to 80%.
Abstract:
Provided is a bundle of fresh noodles which become less-wavy, straight noodles when the instant noodles are cooked with hot water, while maintaining an existing manufacturing line as much as possible. The noodle strings are stacked on a conveyor such that adjacent noodle strings are in a non-parallel state and each noodle string bends to have a substantially spiral shape. The plurality of noodle strings are arranged to overlap one another and form a substantially flat bundle of noodle strings. Each of the noodle strings forming fresh noodles bends and repeatedly forms loops on the conveyor. The loops are arranged to be sequentially shifted in a direction opposite a conveyance direction of the conveyor.
Abstract:
[Problem to be Solved] It is intended to provide a method for producing instant noodles having supple texture by having soft surface and a moderately elastic core, and such instant noodles.[Solution] Raw noodle strings prepared from a noodle dough kneaded with a powder fat or oil and/or powder emulsifier are treated with superheated steam, followed by the drying of the noodle strings, or pH adjustment, heat sterilization, and full sealing. In this way, the present invention provides a method for producing instant noodles having supple texture by having soft surface and a moderately elastic core.
Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing an untangling-improving agent for inhibiting quality deterioration such as a difficulty in untangling after storage and efficiently producing tasty noodles, and to provide noodles prepared by using the untangling-improving agent. The untangling properties of noodles can be improved, and at the same time, the elasticity and chewiness of noodles can be maintained by adding, to noodles, an untangling-improving agent for noodles obtained by incorporating monoglycerol fatty acid ester and protein, wherein the monoglycerol fatty acid ester and protein are in the emulsified state.
Abstract:
A pasta product that includes a central body, the central body having a central region and at least one planar face, the planar face having an outwardly oriented face and a surface region oriented between the central region and the outwardly oriented face, the central body having a first color, the planar face defining a display field and at least one first indicia contained in the outwardly oriented face and extending into the surface region of the central body, the indicia having at least one second color that differs from the first color, wherein the first indicia composes between 2% and 98% of the display field defined in the outwardly oriented face.
Abstract:
This invention relates to fat containing consumable food products comprising α-cyclodextrin. The food products have reduced levels of bioavailable fat but have substantially the same fat, cholesterol and caloric content as a like food without α-cyclodextrin. The invention also relates to methods for reducing the bioavailability of fats in fat containing food products without reducing caloric intake as determined by bomb calorimetry and to methods for increasing high density lipoproteins in a subject and reducing or controlling weight by administering the food products of this invention.
Abstract:
Provided is frozen cooked noodles which can be stored in a frozen state for a long time and present satisfactory appearance and texture after defrosting. A method for manufacturing frozen cooked noodles comprising obtaining raw noodles by extruding dough containing from 0.5 to 5 parts by mass of a plant protein and 100 parts by mass of wheat flour containing 70 mass % or more of a regular wheat flour at a pressure of from 60 kgf/cm2 to 160 kgf/cm2, cooking the raw noodles, and freezing the cooked noodles.
Abstract translation:提供了可以长时间保存在冷冻状态的冷冻熟面条,并且在除霜后具有令人满意的外观和质感。 一种冷冻煮熟面条的制造方法,其特征在于,通过将含有0.5〜5质量份的植物蛋白质的面团和100质量份的含有70质量%以上的普通小麦粉的小麦粉以 60kgf / cm 2至160kgf / cm 2,烹饪生面,冷冻煮熟的面条。
Abstract:
Provided is a cooked noodle capable of maintaining a good texture and good taste and flavor even after refrigerated or frozen-stored. A method for producing a cooked noodle, comprising allowing a liquid comprising 1.0 to 15.0% by mass of a sugar and 0.5 to 8.0% by mass of a starch to attach to a heat-cooked noodle.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for producing frozen noodles comprising: a step of attaching a composition comprising xanthan gum and having a viscosity of from 30 to 2000 mPa·s at 60° C. to cooked noodles obtained by cooking fresh noodles produced by a rolling noodle-manufacturing method; and a step of freezing the noodles to which the composition has attached.
