Rice Snack Chip With High Rate Of Visual Inclusions Made On Tortilla Sheeting Equipment

摘要

A method and formulation are disclosed for using a mixture of inulin and surfactant to overcome adhesive and viscoelastic problems associated with using tortilla sheeters for processing rice-based dough to make rice crisps. The inulin decreases viscoelasticity whereas the surfactant decreases adhesiveness. The additive decouples the relationship between water content and the adhesiveness and viscoelasticity of the dough, allowing water content to be used to control other product variables such as product moisture content and oil take-up.
