SOLID FOOD, COMPRESSION-MOLDED FOOD POWDER PRODUCT, SOLID MILK, AND COMPRESSION-MOLDED POWDERED MILK PRODUCT

摘要

To provide a solid food, a compression-molded food powder product, a solid milk, and a compression-molded powdered milk product that can be produced with greater efficiency while ensuring resistance to breakage.SOLUTION: A solid food is formed by compression molding a food powder. The solid food is formed such that: the average value A of the packing ratio of the solid food from the surface thereof to a depth of 2 mm is greater than the average value C of the packing ratio of the solid food from a depth of 4 mm from the surface thereof to a depth of 6 mm; and the rate of increase (A-C)/C×100 in the packing ratio as found by dividing the difference (A-C) between the average value A and the average value C by the average value C is 6.5% or lower.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 10
