Abstract

According to the process of the present invention for preparing a pasty proteinous material or a proteinous food, crustaceans are boiled and milled under sufficient conditions for inactivating enzymes contained therein and then proteolytic enzyme(s) and/or micro-organism(s) are allowed to act thereon. Thus various protein sources including crustacean meat remaining in the trunks and carapaces, which have been disposed hitherto, can be efficiently utilized.
