Abstract

A fibrous milk protein product having a high tensile elongation (115 to 380%) and an excellent stability to hot water cooking (tolerant to treatment in hot water of 135.degree. C. for 4 minutes) which is produced by forming the starting milk protein into a fibrous composition and then treating the fibrous composition in an aqueous solution containing at least one of sodium, potassium and calcium salts and also an aldehyde type crosslinking agent having a ratio of molecular weight (M) to number of aldehyde groups (n) of 120 to 360 (e.g. lactose) at a pH of 2.5 to 6.5 and at 100.degree. to 140.degree. C. for 20 minutes to 3 hours.
