Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the frozen cooked rice being prevented from the aging of the starch after its freezing and thawing, reduced in the deterioration of its qualities due to the formation of ice crystallization on its freezing, and improved in the appearance such as gloss and luster, and to provide the method for producing the same. CONSTITUTION:A non-reduced and/or reduced oligo saccharide having a polymerization degree of trisaccharide or more, preferably trisaccharide to decasaccharide, is added to and mixed with rice before or after cooked. The amount of the addition is preferably 1-20%(W/W) per rice before cooked. If necessary, an edible oil such as salad oil is added to the rice together with the oligo saccharide.

[0003] In general, as a problem in the case of freezing cooked rice, there is a phenomenon of aging of starch as a main component, that is, a phenomenon in which α-starch is converted to β-starch. When starch is aged in cooked rice, it becomes dry, loose, and hardened, and the texture and taste are significantly deteriorated. It is said that the aging of starch is most likely to proceed at -2 to 5 ° C and to stop at -20 ° C or less. Further, amylose has no steric hindrance and thus tends to age. Therefore, starch having a higher amylose content tends to age.

Therefore, when the cooked rice is frozen, it is rapidly frozen so that it can quickly pass through a temperature zone where aging is most likely to proceed, such as -2 to 5 ° C., and amylose is not contained in the non-glutinous rice containing amylose. Aging measures are being taken by using sticky rice, which is difficult to age. In addition, the problem is solved by subjecting starch such as pilaf and grilled rice ball that is heated and cooked in a frozen state when eaten, to converting the starch into α by heating and cooking again.

As described above, according to the present invention,
By adding non-reducing and / or reducing oligosaccharides having a degree of polymerization of trisaccharide or higher, aging of starch during freezing or thawing is prevented, and deterioration of quality due to growth of ice crystals under frozen storage is also suppressed. Therefore, even frozen rice such as rice balls and sushi that cannot be cooked during thawing, and frozen cooked rice such as ordinary rice using mochi rice can be naturally thawed to obtain a good texture and taste. In addition, the transparency after thawing, and the appearance such as gloss and sag are also good. Therefore, it can be used for a wide range of frozen cooked rice without being restricted by the cooking method and the thawing method.
