PURPOSE: To prepare a uniform, smooth, and jellylike food base, by adding specific amounts of calcium salt and a pyrophosphate to a dissolved solution containing casein.
CONSTITUTION: 240W1,000mg (corresponding 6W25mmmol) calculated as Ca of a Ca salt and 186W930mg (corresponding to 6W30mmmol) calculated as phosphorus of a phrophosphate in a molar ratio of Ca/phosphorus in the state of pyrophosphate of 0.8W3.0 based on 50g casein in added to a liquid substance containing 2W20wt% casein, and dissolved in it to give a uniform high-viscosity liquid, which is allowed to stand. In order to raise the reaction rate and to make texture of the formed jelly more smooth, an orthophosphate is added to the liquid material in such a way that a molar ratio of Ca/phosphorus in the state of orthophosphate is 0.8W3.0 and dissolved in it.
