NUTRITIOUS FABRICATED SNACK PRODUCTS

摘要

A snack chip comprising from about 40% to about 60% of nut based material; from about 40% to about 60% of starch material made from materials selected from the group consisting of tapioca, rice, and mixtures thereof; from about 0.1% to about 5.0% water; and from about 0% to about 20% of optional ingredients. At least about 40% of the starch material can be pre-gelatinized. The snack chip can be made by combining the nut based material and dry ingredients with water to form a dough, which is then sheeted, cut into individual pieces, and braked to form the snack chip. Alternatively, the cut pieces can be dried to form a half-product and then cooked to form the snack chip.
