MANUFACTURING DRIED RICE

摘要

A method of manufacturing dried rice with a pregelatinized starch content which comprises the steps of: (a) soaking polished rice in water having a temperature below 30 DEG C.; (b) soaking the polished rice resulting from said step (a) in warm water having a temperature between 50 DEG and 70 DEG C.; (c) steam cooking the polished rice resulting from said step (b); and (d) drying the polished rice resulting from said step (c). The method allows the dried rice to be made edible within a short period, and allows the rice to be processed without making the surface of the rice grains too sticky, and thus provides constantly high yields with low energy costs.
