PURPOSE:To prepare a sterilized mashed potato contained in a container without hardening in the storage thereof, by adding egg white or a starch hydrolyzate to the mashed potato. CONSTITUTION:An egg is broken and separated to give an egg white liquid, which is used as the egg white in an amount of 1-3pts.wt. expressed in terms of solid content based on 100pts.wt. mashed potato. A starch hydrolyzate obtained by hydrolyzing a starch to give dextrin having a DE of 10-40% or hydrogenating the resultant dextrin is used as the starch hydrolyzate in an amount of 6-15pts.wt. based on 100pts.wt. potato. Both may be used together, and xanthan gum for preventing the separation of water therewith is added to a material in a step before introducing into a container, preferably just before introducing into the container and kneading the raw materials. The resultant prepared mashed potato is sealed in a container, and heat sterilized. |
