The mixing ratio of the water-soluble protein is powder 1
It is preferably in the range of 5 to 10 parts by weight with respect to 00 parts by weight. This is because when the content of the water-soluble protein is less than 5 parts by weight, gelation becomes insufficient, and when it is added in excess of 10 parts by weight, the time required for its removal increases or cracking occurs in the firing process. This is because there is a problem such as deformation or deformation.
