Description

  The present invention relates to a processed food, such as potato chips, and a system for manufacturing a processed food.

Conventionally, most processed foods such as potato chips are, for example, peeled raw potatoes, sliced and fried, and then seasoned to make products.
In the case of processed foods such as potato chips, since the frying process is performed, the product contains a large amount of oil components, has a high calorie content, and includes the point of becoming a health maintenance problem such as the presence of cholesterol components. It was not always preferred.

Patent Literature 1 discloses a method of manufacturing a snack confection using a completely different raw material from that of the present invention and completely different from that of the present invention, but proposes a snack confection that does not fry.
The snack confectionery disclosed in Patent Document 1 is obtained through a series of processes of peeling potatoes, pelletizing, steaming, drying, puffing, spraying seasonings, and drying (Patent Document 1 Means, FIG. 1).
However, in the case of the snack of Patent Document 1, although it does not include the frying treatment, raw potato is used as a raw material and pelletized to produce a snack, thereby increasing the production cost and increasing the product cost. The size and shape of the product cannot be uniformed, resulting in products having different sizes and shapes, and the snack confection itself as a product has a generally flat finished shape and has a bent shape like conventional potato chips. It is difficult to do.
