NON-DIGESTIBLE HYDROXYPROPYL STARCH HYDROLYSATE, METHOD FOR PRODUCTION THEREOF, AND FOOD/BEVERAGE

摘要

Disclosed are: a non-digestible hydroxypropyl starch hydrolysate which can be used as a novel water-soluble dietary fiber; a method for producing the non-digestible hydroxypropyl starch hydrolysate; and a beverage or food comprising the non-digestible hydroxypropyl starch hydrolysate. Specifically disclosed are: a non-digestible hydroxypropyl starch hydrolysate which is characterized by having a DE value of less than 20 and a glucose content of less than 3 mass%; a beverage or food comprising the non-digestible hydroxypropyl starch hydrolysate; and a method for producing a non-digestible hydroxypropyl starch hydrolysate, which is characterized by comprising the following steps (A) and (B): (A) hydrolyzing a hydroxypropyl starch having a degree of substitution of 0.05 to 0.4 with an a-amylase and subsequently with a glucoamylase; and (B) removing glucose from a hydrolysate produced in the step (A).
