Abstract: This invention is a process of producing soy bean milk in which soy beans are crushed in an aqueous hot medium and then the crushed soy beans are maintained at a high temperature in the aqueous hot medium.Since crushing soy beans were performed in the aqueous hot medium instead of grinding, the decrease in the protein extraction rate caused by subsequent high temperature-maintaining was able to be prevented, with lipoxidase or both lipoxidase and trypsin inhibitor being substantially deactivated.

Abstract: Beef, fish and fowl are tenderized, without oozing out flavoring substances, by contacting with oil and/or fat containing a proteolytic enzyme. Preferably, contacting is by soaking in a composition consisting of oil and proteolytic enzyme at 5.degree.-10.degree. C. for 24-48 hours.

Abstract: A method of producing a paste product like lobster's meat is disclosed which comprises dividing finely paste product, which product has been already coagulated by heating; mixing said divided product with protein mixture and molding the resulting mixture, the mixing and/or molding procedure being carried out under reduced pressure; and then heating the molded product. The thus obtained paste product like lobster's meat according to the present invention has moderately hard flesh, and during chewing, an elastic and pleasant mouth feel is obtained as if eating natural lobster's meat.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of separating fish meat from bone with showering water or an aqueous solutions of alkaline salts, saccharide and/or amino acids thereon. Hitherto the fish meat has been separated from bone in the air, so that the freshness of meat has rapidly deteriorated, but the present invention can prevent such a drawback. When the boiled fish paste is produced by use of fish meat which has been prevented from the deterioration of freshness, it is possible to obtain a boiled fish paste of a higher gel strength, in other words, one of a higher quality having good tooth touch.

Abstract: Distillers solubles are purified by a centrifugal separation to a degree above 50,000 which is the product of g x minute, or a filtration with addition of a filter aid. The clarified matter is purified by a molecular sieve ultrafiltration treatment, reverse osmosis or an organic solvent precipitation. The clarified matter or purified matter thus obtained is pulverized by spray drying, lyophilic drying or air drying.Said clarified matter, purified matter or pulverized matter is added to a fermentation medium or a feed as an available component.

Abstract: Fibrous boiled fish paste is produced by adding water to minced meat, mixing both with agitation, molding the mixture into a certain shape, subjecting it to setting, dividing it finely into the form of fibers or flat pieces extending in parallel and then heating the resulting finely divided product without separating each fiber or flat piece individually. The resulting boiled fish paste comprises an inner part coated with an outer surface forming a pellicle united to the inner part. The inner part is divided finely into the form of fibers or flat pieces in parallel to such a degree that each fiber or flat piece separates individually with ease in the mouth upon eating. This boiled fish paste is united in a body in appearance, but it loosens immediately in fiber-like manner in the mouth upon eating and it has an improved mouth feel.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of separating meat from fish while immersed in water or an aqueous solution of alkaline salts, saccharide and/or amino acids. Hitherto the fish meat has been separated from fish in air, so that the freshness of meat has rapidly deteriorated, but the present invention can prevent such a drawback. When the boiled fish paste is produced by use of fish meat which has been prevented from the deterioration of freshness, it is possible to obtain a boiled fish paste of a higher gel strength, in other words, one of a higher quality having good mouth feel.
