Abstract
A manufacturing method for a starch-containing composition that is not prone to collapsing shape in a liquid during heat cooking, is highly lusterless, and has excellent appearance which utilizes an extruder including a feeder for loading a food material and a die for discharging the food material after kneading and shaping. The screw has a first flight, a kneading, and a second flight section, and the barrel has a bend section at the first-half of the second flight section of the screw. A composition containing at least 3.0 mass % insoluble dietary fiber, at least 10.0 mass % starch, at least 3.0 mass % protein, and a dry-basis water content of at least 25 mass % is prepared.; The composition is then heated under pressure, kneaded, and depressurized until the degree of gelatinization is lowered by at least 6 mass %.
