PRODUCTION OF STERILIZED SOLID-LIQUID MIXED FOOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing a sterilized solid-liquid mixed food capable of providing good familiarity of flavors of the solid and liquid materials for a long period by mixing the sterilized solid material and the sterilized liquid material, and holding the temperature of the obtained mixture within a specific temperature range for a specified time. SOLUTION: This method for producing the sterilized solid-liquid mixed food comprises mixing a sterilized solid material with a sterilized liquid material and holding the temperature of the obtained mixture at temperatures of 40-100 deg.C for 1-60 min. Each temperature before mixing is regulated by separately sterilizing the solid material and the liquid material and regulating each of the temperatures of the sterilized solid material and the sterilized liquid material so as to be 40-100 deg.C following the sterilization, or cooling the sterilized solid material and the sterilized liquid material to a preserving temperature and heating both of the solid and liquid materials to each 40-100 deg.C. The sterilized solid material and the sterilized liquid material are preferably mixed in a steam atmosphere.
