PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new technique for producing and using Shonai wheat gluten bread, which allows anyone to easily and efficiently make an entirely new rice ball using a wheat gluten bread dough by utilizing features of baked wheat gluten bread in which the wheat gluten bread dough can be thinly rolled up and baked hard.SOLUTION: In a method for producing a rice ball coating shell, the rice ball coating shell for making boiled rice 5 into a massive formed by filling a shell body 2 with the boiled rice is produced by (D) molding and baking the shell body 2 so as to be composed of a plurality of divided bodies 20, 20 in either stage (B or C) of the stage (B) in which a wheat gluten bread dough 1 obtained by (A) kneading a raw material is thinly rolled up or the stage (C) of a baked dough 10 baked to a moldable extent after (A) kneading and (B) thinly rolling up the wheat gluten bread dough 1, the plurality of divided bodies 20, 20 being restorable to the original shell body 2 having an overall shell shape of one rice ball only by combining them.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】 麩生地を薄く延ばして硬く焼き上げることができる焼き麩の特性を活かし、麩を利用した全く新しいおにぎりを、誰でも簡単且つ効率的に造ることができる、新たな庄内麩の生産および利用技術を提供する。【解決手段】 原料を練り上げ(A)た麩生地1を薄く延ばした段階(B)か、または、同麩生地1を練り上げ(A)薄く延ばし(B)、成型できる程度に焼いた焼き生地10の段階(C)かの何れか一方の段階(BまたはC)にて、外郭体2を、複数分割体20,20からなるものに成型・焼成する(D)ようにし、それら複数分割体20,20を組合せさえすれば、元の1個のおにぎりの全体外殻形状を呈した外郭体2に復元可能であって、その内部に御飯5を装填して一塊状のものとするためのおにぎり皮膜用殻体を製造するようにしてなるおにぎり皮膜用殻体の製造方法である。【選択図】 図1
