First Claim
Patent Images
1. A production method for processed soybean food products, comprising the steps of:
- (A) grinding raw soybeans to produce a soybean slurry;
(B) heating the soybean slurry so that the soybean slurry is thermally denatured, whereinin the heating step (B), the soybean slurry is flowed alternately between a large diameter pipe arranged in a straight line and a small diameter pipe bent in a turning configuration while being heated by blowing steam into the soybean slurry from a steam outlet provided at the distal end of a steam pipe protruding into the inside of the small diameter pipe bent in a turning configuration, and(C) partway through the heating step (B), deaerating the soybean slurry for removing air bubbles mixed in with the soybean slurry.

Abstract
The aim is to effectively remove the unpleasant raw odor that is characteristic of soybeans and provide a high quality processed soybean food product. In a production method for processed soybean food products that includes a grinding step (A) in which raw soybeans are ground to obtain a soybean slurry and a heating step (B) in which the obtained soybean slurry is heated and thermally denatured, a deaeration step (C) for removing air bubbles mixed in with the soybean slurry is performed partway through the heating step (B). It is preferable that the heating step (B) and the deaeration step (C) are performed continuously.
