PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing a quality improving agent for foods whose production method is simple, and which is excellent in storage stability and capable of keeping the texture or flavor of foods immediately after processing or cooking for a long time when it is added to various foods.SOLUTION: The method for producing a quality improving agent for foods containing an organic acid monoglyceride, an emulsifying agent and a saccharide is provided. The emulsifying agent is a sucrose fatty acid ester or a polyglycerin fatty acid ester. The method for producing the quality improving agent for foods includes, first, preparing a dispersion of a lamella structure of an organic acid monoglyceride, and then mixing the obtained dispersion with the emulsifying agent.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】製造方法が簡単であり、保存安定性にも優れ、各種食品に添加した際に、加工や調理直後の食感や風味を長期間に亘って維持できる食品用品質改良剤の製造方法を提供する。【解決手段】有機酸モノグリセリド、乳化剤および糖類を含む食品用品質改良剤の製造方法であって、該乳化剤はショ糖脂肪酸エステル又はポリグリセリン脂肪酸エステルであり、先ず、有機酸モノグリセリドのラメラ構造体の分散液を調製し、次いで、得られた分散液と上記の乳化剤とを混合する食品用品質改良剤の製造方法。【選択図】なし
