A fluid konjak material, which can be mixed with any other edible material
uniformly at a high concentration while sufficiently keeping the gelling
power and the biological effect intrinsic to konjak mannan, is provided
by swelling and dissolving konjak flour in water, treating the resultant
with alkali at a pH of at least 10, lowering the pH to less than 8,
heating the composition with forced stirring and enzymatically treating
the forcedly-stirred composition.
