Abstract

The invention is related to a method for producing a steamed, exploded, and fermented dietary fiber, comprising the steps of: subjecting a hemicellulose-containing plant resource to a steam treatment followed by an explosion treatment (2.5 Mpa, 70 seconds); mixing wheat bran into this steamed and exploded material; adjusting water content of this mixture to about 50%; subsequently preparing koji with the use of a koji fungus; adding water to the koji thus obtained; mixing the steamed and exploded material into a koji dispersion wherein koji is dispersed into water; adjusting water content of this mixture to about 50%; subsequently fermenting the mixture. This method produces a useful material as a food material and a health supplement, by a simple process, with efficiency, and at a low cost.
