<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide powder seasoning containing flavonoid having useful physiological effect and also suppressed in color deterioration of food, reduced in sodium content in the powder seasoning, and having useful physiological function such as hypotensive effect. <P>SOLUTION: The powder seasoning comprises the following components (A), (B) and (C): (A) 15-36 mass% of sodium; (B) 3-36 mass% of an alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal other than sodium and selected from potassium, magnesium, and calcium; and (C) 0.01-20 mass% of a flavonoid, wherein the (A) component is a powder seasoning containing sodium derived from sodium chloride, and the (C) flavonoid has one OH in the B ring, and the value of Y/(X+Y) is less than 0.05. Herein, X is the number of OH bonded to a benzene ring in one flavonoid molecule and Y is the number of OCH<SB>3</SB>bonded to a benzene ring in one flavonoid molecule. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
