PURPOSE:To prepare a jelly food having sufficiently high strength to enable the handling with chopsticks, etc. and having good palatability, by contacting coagulated alginate with an aqueous solution of salt of sodium, potassium, ammonium, etc., and contacting the product again with water. CONSTITUTION:An aqueous solution of sodium alginate is extruded in the form of noodles or dripped in the form of droplets in an aqueous solution of salt consisting of a calcium salt, iron salt, alum, etc. to form a coagulum. The coagulum is made to contact with an aqueous solution of a salt of sodium, potassium, ammonium, magnesium, etc., and washed with water or immersed in running water to effect the swelling with water and to increase the weight of the coagulum. |
