 The process of making retort-pouch curry |
 |
|
Retort-pouch curry (pre-cooked curry) stands next to instant curry mix as a very popular product.Prepared with meat, vegetables, and other ingredients simmered in a curry sauce, this product has caught on because it makes it "easy to eat curry simply by warming the pouch."Product types and quantities are increasing all the time. |

The process of making retort-pouch curry   |
 |

 |
Manufacturing the soup: Meat (beef, chicken, etc.) is boiled and the soup removed. The meat is used as an ingredient in the curry sauce. |

 |
Manufacturing the curry sauce: The sauce is made by adding instant curry mix (made with curry powder, flour, oils, and seasonings) to the soup. |

 |
Measuring and filling: Vegetables are boiled and then added to the meat and curry sauce. The mixture is then filled into bags. |

 |
Deaeration and tight sealing: Air is removed from the bags, which are then immediately sealed. |

|
Pressurisation and cooling: After the bags are packed, they undergo sterilisation in a retort vat (pressurising and heat-sterilisation device) so that they may be stored for a long period of time. Then they are cooled. After the surfaces of the bags are dried, they are packaged to complete the process. In addition to retort-pouch curry, canned curry is manufactured using a similar process. |

 Bringing curry powder to your table |

Curry powder is completed through these many processes. The familiar "red can" design has changed little since the product first went on sale in 1950. Perhaps you have a can in your home. We invite you to try using red-can curry powder in a variety of curry dishes. |
