PRODUCTION OF MARINE ALGA-CONTAINING LIQUID COMPOSITION

摘要

PURPOSE:To obtain a marine alga-containing liquid composition slightly precipitating sediment, having a reduced offensive smell of marine alga, extremely improved taste and thick flavor by comparison with existing marine alga- containing liquid composition, by partially removing mannitol contained in essence of marine alga and adding a fixed amount of a specific reducing hydrolyzate to the essence of marine alga. CONSTITUTION:(a) 100pts.wt. essence of marine alga from which mannitol is partially removed is mixed with (b) 5-50pts.wt. reducing starch hydrolyzate which contains 70-85wt.% sugaralcohol of hydrogenated oligosaccharide of tetrasaccharide or higher saccharide and 500-1,100 average mol.wt. to form a marine alga-containing liquid composition. Sea tangle, giant kelp, Sargassum horneric C. Agardh, Sargassum microcanthum Yendo or WAKAME seeweed are cited as the marine algae.
