[PROBLEMS] To maintain the original shape, color, taste, fragrance, texture, and nutritional components while maintaining the moisture content not only on the surface and in the vicinity of the surface, but also uniformly increasing the viscosity of the water contained inside, The present invention provides a food that can reduce the amount of water separated by mastication or eliminate the separation of water, and provides a highly safe food that can suppress aspiration for those who have difficulty in chewing / swallowing. Provided is a food production method capable of preparing such food ingredients in a short time, without waste, and easily and inexpensively. A step of preparing a viscosity-adhering dispersion-attached food material by adhering to the surface of the food material a viscosity-improving dispersion liquid in which microorganisms that produce unsolvated thickeners and / or viscous substances are dispersed. Pressure-reducing and / or pressurizing the liquefied dispersion-attached food material to uniformly contain microorganisms that produce unsolvated thickeners and / or viscous substances in the food material.
