The reinforcing effect of gel strength on these foods tends to be more pronounced as the gel strength increases, so when considering the application to these foods, dried egg whites with high gel strength are desired. Various techniques have been demonstrated to date to enhance the gel-forming ability of dried egg white. For example, a technique for thermally storing dried egg white (Japanese Patent Publication No. 59-053804), a rapid heating treatment method for performing thermal storage treatment in a short time (Japanese Patent Publication No. 61-100)

The thermal storage method requires the process of storing dried egg whites at a temperature above room temperature for several days, which not only takes up space but also requires the supply of a large amount of heat. Additionally, depending on the packaging of dried egg whites, the heat treatment effect itself may be uneven, and in order to prevent this unevenness, it may be necessary to perform operations that take thermal conductivity into consideration. It was difficult. In addition, although the rapid heating method and extrusion packing method reduce time and effort, the moisture content of the product is significantly reduced due to the processing under high temperature and high pressure, and the moisture content of the raw materials has a large effect on the quality of the product. There is a drawback that
There are technical problems such as burning if the processing conditions are not appropriate. Furthermore, in the method of adding alcohol, there is a risk of generating a strange odor and igniting during heating, and in the method of adding vitamin C, there are problems such as changes in the color tone of the food.

The gist of the present invention is to improve gel-forming ability by irradiating dried egg white with an electron beam. The configuration of the present invention will be explained in detail below. The electron beam irradiation according to the present invention can be performed by a conventional method. As a device that can perform electron beam irradiation according to the present invention, an electron beam irradiation device that is generally used industrially can be used. Examples of the electron beam irradiation device according to the present invention include a high-frequency linear accelerator, an electrostatic Kotscroft-Walton type accelerator, and a transformer type accelerator. A high-frequency linear accelerator is particularly preferable because it has high transparency and processing capacity. Considering the gel forming ability, the irradiation dose in the present invention is as follows:
Doses up to about 100 kGy are preferred. It has been found that if the temperature exceeds this range, an irradiation odor will occur and the color tone will change, which is undesirable for the purposes of the present invention. 1980 F on Radiation and Electron Beam Irradiation of Foods
According to the recommendations of the 〇/IAB^/WHO joint committee, it is recommended that the acceleration energy be up to 10 MeV and the irradiation dose be up to 50 keys in consideration of the safety of the irradiated object, and the implementation of the present invention in accordance with this recommendation In this case, the irradiation dose is preferably up to 50 kGy. In the present invention, when irradiating dried egg white with an electron beam, it is preferable to form the dried albumen into a thin layer in consideration of the transmittance of the electron beam. It is possible to prevent uneven transmission of electron beams. From the above, in implementing the present invention, for example,
Dry egg white powder is continuously supplied to a constant thickness on a tray in an electron beam irradiation device, and the powder is directly irradiated with an electron beam. Alternatively, it is preferable to package dried egg white to a thickness that allows it to pass through and irradiate it with an electron beam. In this operation, it is preferable to carry out the present invention by continuously feeding a tray loaded with powder or a packaged dried egg white to an electron beam irradiation device using a belt conveyor or the like. In carrying out the present invention, an effect equivalent to the cumulative total of the irradiation dose can be obtained by repeated irradiation in which irradiation is once completed and then irradiated again. Furthermore, in carrying out the present invention, the irradiation direction can be carried out from both the upper and lower sides or the left and right sides. Regarding double-sided irradiation, there is a method to obtain the same effect by turning the dried egg white after irradiation and irradiating it again, but it is also possible to achieve the same effect by turning the dried egg white after irradiation and irradiating it again. The method of simultaneous irradiation is superior. The dried egg white used in the present invention can be obtained by desugarizing egg white liquid using microorganisms or enzymes, and then drying it using a spray dryer, pan dryer, freeze dryer, etc. Although the moisture content in the dried egg white does not directly affect the implementation of the present invention, in consideration of food hygiene issues, it is preferably about 20% or less. In carrying out the present invention, it is sufficient that the irradiation be carried out in the atmosphere. For the purpose of suppressing irradiation odor, for example,
Electron beam irradiation can be performed in a packaged form filled with an inert gas such as nitrogen gas or argon gas.
