Description

  The present invention relates to a freeze-dried cooked egg having a good texture, floatability and dispersibility after restoration, and a method for producing the freeze-dried egg.

  Freeze-dried cooked eggs that have been freeze-dried are used as ingredients such as soup and ramen after being restored with hot water. Freeze-dried scrambled eggs are usually prepared by pouring a mixture of egg yolk and egg white, such as chicken eggs (hereinafter also referred to as whole egg fluid) into hot water, etc., and coagulating the scrambled eggs as they are. It is obtained by. However, freeze-dried scrambled eggs obtained by pouring whole egg liquid into hot water and coagulating lyophilized as it is, the texture after reconstitution with hot water, etc., is not smooth and poorly dispersible. There was a problem. In patent document 1, it is proposed that dextrin and a thickener are mixed in whole egg liquid and used as a mixed egg liquid to improve the texture after restoration of freeze-dried mixed eggs.
