Abstract

A high-pressure processing method which can produce fish meat and/or a kneaded fish meat products having improved sterilizability, texture and taste by a treatment at a relatively low pressure range is provided. A low-temperature and high-pressure processing method for fish meat and/or kneaded fish meat products which performs high-pressure treatment at low temperature of a frozen preparation of fish meat and/or a kneaded fish meat product obtained by freezing fish meat and/or a kneaded fish meat product after dehydration treatment or without dehydration treatment thereof while maintaining it in a frozen state is provided. Since fish meat and/or kneaded fish meat products which is sufficiently sterilized, has good storability, and has favorable texture can be obtained by the above method even when subjected to high-pressure treatment at a relatively low pressure range, the method is useful in the field of fish meat and/or kneaded fish meat products.
