More specifically , the present invention relates to the that some or all of the resulting gelled foods have a starchy following technical fields ( 1 ) to ( 4 ) . texture , and do not have a soft and smooth texture such as [0002 ] ( 1 ) The present invention relates to a protein aggre that of a pudding or a mousse . gation inhibitor, and a protein - containing food in which [0009 ] In addition , with the recent increase in the popu aggregation of protein is inhibited by adding the protein lation of elderly people , the number of persons with so aggregation inhibitor. More specifically , the present inven called dysphagia , is increasing ; therefore , there has been the tion relates to a protein -containing food in which a soft and development of foods for dysphagia that enables patients to smooth texture is ensured by inhibiting excessive protein orally take food and enjoy the food , and that also improves aggregation during the heating upon manufacture of a food their eating ability . Since many persons with dysphagia often containing a protein -containing material such as egg , cow have difficulty in eating a large amount of food , there is an milk , or soymilk , and therefore the appearance and the urgent need for the development of foods having a high mouthfeel are not impaired by roughness of the structure ; nutritional value that enables patients to take in a great deal the food may also be used as a food for dysphagia . The of nutrients , even in a small amount of food . Further , in present invention also relates to a production method of the particular, considering a situation in which a patient with food . dysphagia receives home care , it is difficult to have a large [0003 ] ( 2 ) The present invention relates to a production stock of chilled foods , because the freshness date of such method of a processed meat (processed meat or fish such as foods is usually short. Therefore , there has been a demand sausage, meatball, deep - fried chicken , deep - fried pork , for shelf- stable foods or the like that can be stored for a long kamaboko ( steamed fish paste ) , or tsumire (minced fish period of time at ordinary temperature , and that can be ball) ) in which the original texture of the processed meat is stored bedside or the like , thereby enabling the patient to retained or enhanced while ensuring a soft texture .

BACKGROUND ART [0011 ] Known protein - containing foods include various [0006 ] Technical field ( 1 ) described above has the follow food products using egg as a raw material, such as rolled ing problems. omelet , omelet , or scrambled egg . The proteins contained in [ 0007 ] Protein - containing foods have suffered from a such protein -containing foods containing eggs are gelled due problem of roughness inside or on the surface of the food to denaturation by heating or the like when they are directly due to the aggregation or precipitation of the protein upon cooked at home or a shop , thereby the processed egg heating for sterilization or the like during manufacture . The products , such as omelet or scrambled egg , can be prepared . roughness is generated as the protein derived from milk , On the other hand , when they are overly heated for steril egg , or the like used as a raw material is denatured by heat, ization , there is a problem of coagulation due to excessive thereby causing protein aggregation or precipitates .

Hollandaise sauce and carbonara sauce are eaten by being [ 0008 ] Because of such a problem , protein -containing mixed with a food , and therefore are provided in a smooth , foods ( e . g . , gelled foods such as pudding ) are generally grittiness - free state . distributed under chilled conditions. Further, there has been [0013 ] Hollandaise sauce , known as a basic sauce of some research on gelled foods in which the gel does not French cuisine , contains butter and lemon juice , and is become rough even after retort sterilization under a high emulsified with egg yolk . The sauce , which is used for US 2018 /0317536 A1 Nov . 8 , 2018 vegetables or eggs Benedict , is eaten by being mixed with a particle diameter of 15 um or less (PTL 1 - 4 ) , a method for food , imparting smooth and grittiness- free texture . Thus, the producing a raw material of a yolk - containing food charac aggregation generated by excessive heating worsens its terized by heating a slurry containing an egg yolk , polysac texture , and deteriorate the commercial value.

  • 20 of the Best Food Tours Around the World
    News Opinion Sport Culture Lifestyle Travel UK Europe US More Top 20s 20 of the best food tours around the world Feast your eyes on these foodie walking tours, which reveal the flavours – and culture – of cities from Lisbon to Lima, Havana to Hanoi The Guardian Wed 26 Jun 2019 14.19 BST EUROPE Porto Taste Porto’s tours are rooted in fundamental beliefs about the gastronomic scene in Portugal’s second city. First, Portuenses like to keep things simple: so, no fusion experiments. Second, it’s as much about the people behind the food, as the food itself. “Food is an expression of culture,” says US-born Carly Petracco, who founded Taste Porto in 2013 with her Porto-born husband Miguel and his childhood buddy André. “We like to show who’s doing the cooking, who’s serving the food, who’s supplying the ingredients, and so on.” She’s good to her word. Walking the city with one of the six guides feels less like venue-hopping and more like dropping in for a catch-up with a series of food-loving, old friends. Everywhere you go (whether it’s the Loja dos Pastéis de Chaves cafe with its flaky pastries or the Flor de Congregados sandwich bar with its sublime slow-roasted pork special) the experience is as convivial as it is culinary. And it’s not just food either. Taste Porto runs a Vintage Tour option that includes a final stop at boutique wine store, Touriga, where the owner David will willingly pair your palate to the perfect port.

  • Okonomiyaki (Osaka-Style) Recipe
    Okonomiyaki (Osaka-style) Recipe Although some Japanese cuisine can be an acquired taste, I have never introduced okonomiyaki (お好み焼き) to a person that didn’t like it. In fact, I have friends that started calling it “okonomi-yummy”! The character 好 means “as you like”, and the character “焼” means to grill. So, this basic recipe can be modified as needed to suit most any dietary need. (I’ll include some tips on how to do that below.) There are several variations of okonomiyaki such as Hiroshima-style or monjayaki in Tokyo, but Osaka-style is the most prevalent. An easy way to think of okonomiyaki is kind of like a personal pan pizza, so this recipe is for one portion. (Although I don’t think some translations of okonomiyaki as “Japanese pizza” are very accurate.) I’ve tried to suggested substitutes with items more readily available whenever possible, but you will probably need to order some ingredients online if you don’t have access to an Asian market nearby. Ingredients: okonomiyaki mix (you can substitute all-purpose flour) ¼ cup water 3½ Tbsp. of yam powder (this is a critical ingredient to make the batter sticky; you can substitute cornstarch) Thinly slice pork strips or preferred topping(s)* 1 egg 1 cup finely sliced cabbage 1/3 cup of green onion For top of cooked okonomiyaki: okonomi sauce (similar to Worcestershire sauce, but thicker and sweeter) mayonnaise (Japanese keypie mayonnaise that comes in a squeeze bottle is ideal for decorating, but mayo works flavor-wise.) aonori (powdered seaweed, optional) katsuobushi (dried bonito fish flakes, optional) Instructions: 1.
