PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a food material that maintains the firmness-texture even when heated/cooked in a microwave oven.SOLUTION: Provided is a microwave oven heating/cooking resistant food material, that maintains the eat-texture even after microwave oven heating/cooking, and characterized in that: the compressive strength of Tensilon before microwave oven heating/cooking is 2.4 N/mm2 or more, and the difference in compressive strength of Tensilon before and after heating/cooking in microwave oven is less than 1.5 N/mm2. Also provided is a microwave oven heating/cooking resistant food material, characterized in that the compressive strength of Tensilon after microwave oven heating/cooking is 1.3 N/mm2 or more.SELECTED DRAWING: NoneCOPYRIGHT: (C)2020,JPO&INPIT【課題】電子レンジ加熱調理した場合でも、歯ごたえを維持した食材を提供する。【解決手段】電子レンジ加熱調理後も食感を維持する電子レンジ加熱調理耐性食材であって、電子レンジ加熱調理前におけるテンシロンの圧縮強度が2.4N/mm2以上であり、電子レンジ加熱調理前後におけるテンシロンの圧縮強度差が1.5N/mm2未満であることを特徴とする電子レンジ加熱調理耐性食材。また、電子レンジ加熱調理後におけるテンシロンの圧縮強度が1.3N/mm2以上であることを特徴とする電子レンジ加熱調理耐性食材。【選択図】なし
