Frozen bread dough improver

Abstract

[Problem] To produce a frozen bread dough improver that has an effect of improving rising of frozen bread dough, is highly safe, and tasteless, using a method that is low-cost and low in environmental impact. Also, to effectively use yeast cell body residue produced as a byproduct of yeast extract. [Means for Solving the Problem] Yeast cell body residue remaining after extracting useful extract from yeast is suspended in water and heated, after which the suspension is subjected to centrifugal separation and a supernatant is obtained. This fraction contains, per solid content, at least 45 wt % RNA, at least 5 wt % dietary fiber, and at least 10 wt % protein, and mannan content in the dietary fiber is at least 60 wt %. This can be used to improve rising of frozen bread dough.
