<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide retort sterilized food having an excellent texture even after being subjected to retort sterilization and having excellent appearance, aroma, and taste, and to provide a method for manufacturing the retort sterilized food that can make the retort sterilized food easily and at a low cost. <P>SOLUTION: In regards to a breaking strength curve obtained when measuring structural strength by continuously applying a compressive load to food to be objected after subjecting to the retort-sterilizing the food to be objected having at least a stroma protein, the retort sterilized food has peaks to appear by 50% of a strain rate of the breaking strength curve of which at least one shows a physical property that reduces more than a predetermined rate relative to the strength peak value. The method for manufacturing the retort sterilized food includes: a water reducing step A of reducing the water in the food to be objected having at least the stroma protein; and a retort-sterilizing step B of performing sterilization treatment, after filling and sealing the food which reduced water in a storage container, by heating and pressurizing the food to be objected. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
