PROCESSED EDIBLE POWDER, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING PROCESSED EDIBLE POWDER, FRIED-FOOD COATING MATERIAL, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING FRIED-FOOD COATING MATERIAL, AND METHOD FOR IMPROVING MOUTHFEEL OF FRIED-FOOD COATING MATERIAL

摘要

Provided are: a processed edible powder that, when used in a fried-food coating material, makes it possible to improve the mouthfeel of the coating to a desired mouthfeel that undergoes little deterioration over time, has excellent crispness, and is crunchy; a method for manufacturing said processed edible powder; a fried-food coating material in which said processed edible powder is used; a method for manufacturing said fried-food coating material; and a method for improving the mouthfeel of the fried-food coating material.　An oil and fat fixation agent is mixed into an edible powder formed from a starchy and/or fibrous raw material to obtain a processed edible powder. Using the processed edible powder as a raw material in a fried-food coating material makes it possible to obtain a fried food having a desired coating mouthfeel that undergoes little deterioration over time, has excellent crispness, and is crunchy.
