PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a novel method for promoting gelation of gellan gum, and a method for producing gel.SOLUTION: Provided are: a method of gelation by promoting the gelation by pressure treating the dispersion in which gellan gum is dispersed, and then by cooling a method of production in which the dispersion contains a potassium salt or a calcium salt, the dispersion in which gellan gum is dispersed is pressure treated, and the dispersion is not heated before pressure treating and a method in which the dispersion is not heated at 90°C or more before pressure treating, and pressure treated with a pressure of 10 MPa or more.SELECTED DRAWING: NoneCOPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】ジェランガムの新規なゲル化促進方法及びゲル製造方法の提供。【解決手段】ジェランガムを分散させた分散液を加圧処理することによりゲル化を促進し、その後冷却することによって、ゲル化させる方法、前記分散液がカリウム塩又はカルシウム塩を含み、ジェランガムを分散させた分散液を加圧処理し、前記分散液を加圧処理する前に加熱しない製造方法、前記分散液を加圧処理する前に90℃以上で加熱せずに、10MPa以上の圧力で加圧処理する方法。【選択図】なし
