PURPOSE:To obtain a spice to be sterilized by heating, having a characteristic spicy taste of natural spice by dispersing a natural spice into an aqueous solution containing a water-soluble film-forming agent, pulverizing the dispersion by a wet type grinder and spray-drying. CONSTITUTION:First, a natural spice such as pepper, cardamon or nutmeg is dispersed into a water-soluble film-forming agent (e.g. gluten or gum Arabic). Then the dispersion is ground by a wet grinder until the natural spice becomes <=10mum. Finally, the dispersion is optionally sterilized by heating, redispersed and spray-dried to give a spice containing a natural spice having <=10mum particle diameter in the water-soluble coating film. |
