PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid food for coating, intended for solving such a problem that when using the liquid food for coating such as curry and stew at normal temperature, texture such as viscosity becomes worse.SOLUTION: This liquid food for coating contains amylopectin-based starch substantially containing no amylose, and minute dietary fiber, and has a viscosity of 1,000-6,000 mPa s (a value measured at 25°C with a B type viscometer). The liquid food for coating is eaten by coating the liquid food of normal temperature as it is on hot boiled rice, bread, noodles or the like.COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT【課題】解決しようとする問題点は、カレーやシチュー等の上掛け用流動状食品を常温で用いた場合に、粘性等の食感がわるくなる点である。【解決手段】アミロースを実質的に含まないアミロペクチン系澱粉及び微細食物繊維を含み、粘度1000~6000mPa・s(25℃、B型粘度計で測定した値)であることを特徴とする上掛け用流動状食品。温かいご飯、パン、麺類等に常温のまま掛けて食べるものである上記の上掛け用流動状食品。【選択図】なし
