PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new-form expanded and molded food containing boiled, dried and fermented fish, having crispy and light palate feeling and to provide a method for producing the expanded and molded food containing boiled, dried and fermented fish.SOLUTION: The expanded and molded food containing boiled, dried and fermented fish is produced by expanding and molding a food raw material S containing boiled, dried and fermented fish crushed into chips, and is mixed with the boiled, dried and fermented fish 1 expanded into a spongy state. The method for producing the expanded and molded food containing boiled, dried and fermented fish comprises: charging the food raw material S containing the boiled, dried and fermented fish 1 crushed into chips, into a mold where pressure and temperature are preliminarily set baking the food raw material followed by gradually raising an upper mold to expand the baked material emitting steam generated in the mold to the outside of the mold and thereafter stopping the rise of the upper mold to continue the expansion and the emission while keeping the inside of the mold have a prescribed volume so as to mold an expanded and molded food having a prescribed shape.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】サクサクとした軽い食感を有する新しい形態の節類を含む膨化成形食品及びその製造方法を提供する。【解決手段】チップ状に粉砕した節類を含んだ食品素材Sを膨化成形することにより、前記節類1がスポンジ状に膨張して混入されている節類を含む膨化成形食品と、チップ状に粉砕した節類1を含んだ食品素材Sを、所定の圧力及び温度に設定した成形型内へ投入して焼成した後、上型を徐々に上昇させて焼成品を膨化するとともに型内で生成した水蒸気を型外へ排気し、次いで、上型の上昇を止めて型内を所定容積に維持した状態で膨化及び排気を継続して所定形状の膨化成形食品を成形する節類を含む膨化成形食品の製造方法。【選択図】図1
