PURPOSE:To produce odorless laver and to prepare a physiologically active substance by washing leaves of laver with salt water having higher salt concentration than sea water and then with liquefied carbon dioxide. CONSTITUTION:Besides raw laver collected from sea water, dried laver or roasted laver is used as raw material laver. The raw material laver is washed with salt water having higher salt concentration than sea water. Then the raw material laver is cleaned with carbon dioxide in a liquid state or supercritical state to produce odorless laver having the same taste and color as the raw material laver, suitable especially for European and American people. The odorless laver is usable for producing a new food because the odorless laver is added to a food by making the best of fragrance of the food of its own. By producing a physiologically active substance from the odorless laver by a well-known method, deodorizing treatment is not required, productivity is improved and manufacturing cost is reduced. |
