PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide pulverized devil's tongues with a smooth swallowing feeling without spoiling the taste of a drink such as juice or soup, or another food when mixing them, and enabling unconsciously to take of a large amount of dietary fibers from finely pulverized devil's tongues which are irreversible gel of glucomannan. SOLUTION: Granules of devil's tongue are treated with a least one kind of enzyme selected from a group consisting of cellulase, hemicellulase, pectinase, protease and galactomannanase, and subsequently the treated matter is pulverized to fine granules of 5-150 μm in particle sizes by a rotary food cutter or a homogenizer. The fine granules are free from secondary coagulation. Further, the pulverized devil's tongues are stabilized by adding a stabilizer. |
