Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent deterioration in quality of a food due to chemical change thereof and readily and simply dehydrate the food while maintaining essential flavor thereof by packaging the food in a semipermeable film, covering the periphery thereof with a water absorbing substance and dehydrating the food while keeping a state of ice temperature. CONSTITUTION:A food 12, such as a fish, is packaged in a semipermeable film 14, such as cellophane or Vinylon(R) film. The periphery of the aforementioned food 12 is then covered with a water absorbing substance 16 (e.g. a graft copolymer of starch.acrylate) to dehydrate the food while keeping a state of ice temperature.

■Processing time is short because it is processed under reduced pressure. That is,
The dehydration rate is determined from the inside (food 12 side) with the semipermeable membrane 14 as the boundary.
It depends on the difference in osmotic pressure between and the outside (water absorbing material 16 side),
By processing under reduced pressure, the speed of moisture transfer from the food 12 side to the water-absorbing substance 16 side becomes faster, so that the processing can be carried out in a short time.
