JP3034117U - Marimo-like food with seaweed - Google Patents

Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] The purpose is to put on the market a marimo-like food consisting of seaweed that can be used easily, anytime, anywhere without any hassle and can quickly restore with hot water. To do. [Structure] A spherical puffed food having a diameter of 30 mm or less is coated with an irreversible binder by heat, dried seaweed of 15 mm or less is attached to the surface, heated and dried to form a spherical body.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a marimo-like food made of seaweed.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Foods using puffs are variously used, such as sweets for children whose puffed corn is sprayed with oil or seasoning, and foods using soybeans, which are said to be the meat of the field.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The present invention aims to put marimo, which is filled with dreams and romance, into a commercial food that can be easily restored with hot water as a marimo-like food made of seaweed.

[0004]

[Means for solving the invention]

 The present invention focused on seaweed that fits the image of marimo, and diligently investigated a method of forming it into a sphere.However, there were problems in terms of manufacturability, especially restoration by hot water and cost increase. Through the research on compound foods and binders that bring out the respective characteristics more, we obtained the knowledge that the above objects of the present invention can be achieved, and completed the present invention. The seaweed-based marimo-like food of the present invention can easily form a base of marimo-like spheres by using a spherically puffed food, and is quickly softened by hot water. Also, some binders are reversible and irreversible by heating, but in order to maintain the shape of marimo, an irreversible binder such as egg white or milk protein due to heat denaturation is indispensable. . In addition, seasonings, colorants, fragrances, etc. may be added to the binder as needed. The dried seaweed attached to the surface of the puff is preferably seaweed, kelp, tosaka, blue glue, blue, etc., which matches the image of marimo, and the diameter of the spherical shape is preferably 30 mm or less. Is preferably 15 mm or less in terms of shape. As described above, the sphere-puffed food is coated with a binding agent that becomes irreversible when heated, and after the seaweed is attached to the surface, it is heated and dried, and it has good storage stability. It becomes a marimo-like food due to seaweed that is restored to.

[0005]

[Action]

 It is a marimo that gives dreams and romance, but the seaweed is restored in a few minutes after you put it in soup, udon, ramen, soup, etc., and it looks fresh, refreshing and increases your appetite. Such food is provided to the market.

【Example】

 The drawing is a production state diagram of the product of the present invention, and FIG. 1 is a puffed food produced using corn produced by an existing method as a raw material.

FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view in which a binder made of egg white and starch syrup is applied to the surface of the puff.

FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view in which a cut wakame seaweed of about 10 mm is attached to the surface of a sphere coated with a binder. This is heated and dried at 80 ° C. for 30 minutes.

FIG. 4 is a product drawing.

FIG. 5 is a sectional view restored by hot water.

[0011]

[Effect of the invention]

 Since the present invention is configured as described above, the following effects can be obtained. By using puffed food, it becomes a float with hot water, and it quickly becomes soft regardless of its size. Since the binder softens rapidly with hot water but does not dissolve, it retains good shape and can maintain a spherical shape, and if necessary, seasoning, coloring and flavoring are easy. The dried seaweed is quickly restored by hot water and expands and swells like a living creature, becoming a vivid and colorful material. It is a compact instant food that does not require weighing and can be easily used anytime, anywhere.
