It is preferable that the food contain vegetables.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for producing a packaged food for a microwave oven, which can be heated in a microwave oven in a packaged state. In particular, it relates to an improvement in the method of processing food products before they are packed in bags.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A bag is formed from a laminated film of polypropylene, polyethylene, cellophane coat or other resin, and a small hole for ventilation is formed in the bag, and the small hole is a special sealing material for pressure adjustment called microchip. A food bag (hereinafter referred to as a "microwave bag") that has been closed up with has been developed. This microwave bag has the feature that the food packed in the bag can be heated in the microwave in the packed state.

Incidentally, it is not possible to put food in a bag made of a resin laminate film, seal it, and heat it in a microwave oven. When heated in a microwave oven in a bag, the water contained in the food becomes steam, and the bag expands greatly as the heating progresses. Then, eventually, the pressure in the bag exceeds the strength of the bag and the bag bursts.

When food is packed in a microwave bag for sale, the purchaser can heat the food in a microwave in the bag-packed state. This is very convenient compared to conventional retort pouch foods. This is because it can be heated in a microwave oven without the trouble of opening the bag, transferring the food to a plate or the like, and covering it with wrap as needed.

[0005]

The food to be packed in a microwave oven bag is, for example, raw vegetables prepared in advance, such as carrots and potatoes cut in a chateau, and radish and muscle cut into bite-size chamfers. It is possible that the green beans were taken. Focusing on the feature that it can be cooked in a microwave oven in a packed state, raw meat with seasoning, such as beef, chicken, and fish with salt and pepper, can be considered.

[0006] Furthermore, the Applicant has wondered if it is possible to pack the raw meat and the sauce together. When a microwave-packaged food containing raw meat and sauce is sold, the purchaser can easily obtain a luxurious dish simply by heating the bag-packaged food in the microwave. Based on this idea, a trial product was prepared by packing a white sauce prepared by the usual method and raw chicken in a microwave bag. When this prototype was heated in a microwave oven, it was found that the fat content and water content of the white sauce were separated during heating, and the desired food was not obtained.

[0007] The present invention has been made under such a background, and an object thereof is to provide a white sauce suitable for packing in a microwave bag. Another object of the present invention is to provide a novel method for producing a packaged food for a microwave oven.

[0008]

The manufacturing method according to claim 1 is a method for manufacturing a packaged food for a microwave oven, which can be heated in a microwave oven in a packaged state, and is packaged in the bag. If the food contains white sauce and raw meat, add white sauce, butter,
In addition to light flour, milk and fresh cream, make it with the specified broth that corresponds to strong flour and fresh meat. Raw meat is salted and peppered, put white sauce and raw meat in the specified bag and seal. It is characterized by that.

As described above, by using strong wheat flour as the material for the white sauce, the fat content and the water content of the white sauce are not separated when the food is heated in the microwave oven. Also, for the white sauce, a predetermined broth corresponding to raw meat, for example, chicken broth when raw meat is chicken,
If the raw meat is pork, add pork broth. Thereby, the taste of the white sauce after being heated together with the raw meat can be stabilized.

The invention according to claim 2 is characterized in that, in the above-mentioned manufacturing method, the white sauce thus prepared is forcibly cooled before being packed in a bag. By forcibly cooling the white sauce before bagging, it is possible to prevent bacteria from growing on the white sauce. In the invention according to claim 3, in the production method, the food to be packaged further contains vegetables, and the vegetables are sauteed and then forcedly cooled, and then sachets are put together with the white sauce and the raw meat. A method for producing a packaged food for a microwave oven, which is characterized in that

If vegetables are fried in advance, they are easily blended with white sauce and heated raw meat.
According to the invention of claim 4, butter, light wheat flour,
In addition to milk and fresh cream, a white sauce for microwaved packaged foods that can be heated in a microwave oven in a packaged state can be provided, which is characterized by using strong flour.

By using strong wheat flour, it is possible to obtain a white sauce in which fat and water are not separated when heated in a microwave oven.

[0013]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The production method (cooking method) according to the present invention will be described below by taking "boiled chicken in white sauce" as an example and comparing it with an ordinary cooking method. (1) Normal cooking method of white sauce Melt butter.

Light flour is added and mixed. Put in the oven and bake on low heat for about 2 hours while mixing. Add milk and mix. Add fresh cream. (2) Method for cooking white sauce according to an embodiment of the present invention Melt butter.

(4) Method of manufacturing chicken in white sauce according to an embodiment of the present invention Stir-fried peppers and onions, and put them in a vacuum cooler for 10 minutes.
Cool for about a minute.

Raw chicken is put in a chilled dish, salted and peppered, and entwined with white wine. Add the peppers, onions and chicken cooked in and to the chilled white sauce made in step (2),
Pack in a microwave bag. The above description explained the manufacturing method of chicken's white sauce boil and the cooking method of the white sauce therefor.

When simmering pork in white sauce instead of chicken, pork broth is used in place of chicken broth when making white sauce. Also,
When making boiled fish in white sauce, use bouillon taken from fish (such as bonito broth) or kelp bouillon as the white sauce. The broth may be omitted when making a versatile white sauce.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, the vegetables to be added were bell peppers and onions, but this is an example, and other vegetables may be added.
