METHOD FOR PRODUCING PROCESSED NATA DE COCO, METHOD FOR RECONSTITUTING PROCESSED NATA DE COCO, AND PROCESSED NATA DE COCO

摘要

Disclosed is a method for producing a processed nata de coco which shows neither damage in appearance caused by, for example, shrinkage, breakage or cracking, nor physical change, for example, hardening, when reconstituted from a dry state into a non-dry state. The method comprises a first step for immersing a cubic nata de coco in an aqueous solution of an interfiber bonding-inhibitor so as to allow the interfiber bonding-inhibitor to infiltrate into the spaces among fibers of the nata de coco, and a second step for freeze-drying the nata de coco.
