BI-COLORED RANDOM COLLETS AND METHODS FOR MAKING SAME
摘要
An expandable starch-based component is extruded through a random extruder together with a colored component having a color unlike that of said starch-based component. The starch-based component may include cereal grains such as rice or corn meal or components derived therefrom. The colored component may include colored starches such as blue corn meal; seeds; and/or micropellets made from fine particle ingredients. When combined, the components form a color-comprising mixture that can be extruded into colored or colorful collets. The color-comprising mixture comprises between about 2% to about 10% colored component. The produced bi-colored collets may then be cooked, optionally seasoned and packaged for consumption.
