PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prepare the subject dried product, capable of serving for eating only after pouring water or hot water by heating a food consisting of a monoglyceride or an ester of the monoglyceride and a polycarboxylic acid, or a mixture of the monoglyceride and the ester, water and starch to pregelatinize the food followed by lyophilization. SOLUTION: A food (e.g. curry stew) is prepared by compounding a monoglyceride (e.g. stearic acid monoglyceride) or an ester of the monoglyceride and a polycarboxylic acid (e.g. succinic acid monoglyceride), or a mixture of the monoglyceride and the ester, water, starch, round of beef, well fried onion, solid soup, curry powder, etc., in such a manner that the monoglyceride, the ester or the mixture becomes 0.5-20wt.% based on the starch. Subsequently, the food is heated to pregelatinize, and further lyophilized to obtain the objective dried product of a food with a high viscosity. The obtained product can be served for eating only after pouring water or hot water on it. |
