A method of producing a cracker from a raw material such as rice or the like comprises steps of compressing and heating for a predetermined time the raw material contained within a hermetically closed chamber defined in upper and lower baking molds, expanding instantaneously the compressed and heated raw material by opening the baking molds and concurrently discharging steam produced within the chamber during the compression under heating, and compressing again the expanded material by means of the baking molds thereby shaping the material in a cracker of a desired form in a self-sustaining structure. An apparatus for carrying out the method. |
