TREATMENT OF RICE AND OTHER GRAIN PRODUCTS

摘要

Process of producing a grain product which comprises subjecting parboiled grain to compression by rolling the grains being maintained at temperatures prior to and during compression below gelatinization temperature. In certain cases the compression step is omitted and an improved product can be obtained by subjecting the grains to treatment with a solution containing an enzyme or enzymes, the quantity of the solution used is such that it is totally absorbed by the grain. In other cases the two aforementioned processes are combined in which case the grain is treated with a solution containing a measured quantity of a solution containing an enzyme or enzymes the quantity of the solution is such that it is totally absorbed by the grains, thereafter the grains are subject to compression by rolling. The invention also relates to a grain product produced by said process.
