摘要:
Process for making reconstitutable rice grains, comprising cooking a mixture of rice flour, water and hydrogenated oil in a cooker-extruder, to produce a partly gelatinized mixture, forming the partly gelatinized mixture into rice-grain shaped pieces and drying and cooling the pieces to room temperature to provide the reconstitutable rice grains.

PCT No. PCT/US92/08595 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 21, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 21, 1994 PCT Filed Oct. 8, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/08274 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 29, 1993Methods of reducing cystine containing animal and plant proteins, and improving dough and baked goods' characteristics is provided which includes the steps of mixing dough ingredients with a thiol redox protein to form a dough and baking the dough to form a baked good. The method of the present invention preferably uses reduced thioredoxin with wheat flour which imparts a stronger dough and higher loaf volumes. Methods for reducing snake, bee and scorpion toxin proteins with a thiol redox (SH) agent and thereby inactivating the protein or detoxifying the protein in an individual are also provided. Protease inhibitors, including the Kunitz and Bowman-Birk trypsin inhibitors of soybean, were also reduced by the NADP/thioredoxin system (NADPH, thioredoxin, and NADP-thioredoxin reductase). When reduced by thioredoxin, the Kunitz and Bowman-Birk soybean trypsin inhibitors lose their ability to inhibit trypsin. Moreover, the reduced form of the inhibitors showed increased susceptibility to heat and proteolysis by either subtilisin or a protease preparation from germinating wheat seeds. The 2S albumin of castor seed endosperm was reduced by thioredoxin. Thioredoxin was reduced by either NADPH and NADP-thioredoxin reductase or dithiothreitol. Analyses showed that thioredoxin actively reduced the intramolecular disulfides of the 2S large subunit, but was ineffective in reducing the intermolecular disulfides that connect the large to the small subunit. A novel cystine containing protein that inhibits pullulanase was isolated; thioredoxin reduction of this protein destroyed or greatly reduced its inhibitory activity.
摘要:
Processed oats having a remarkably decreased viscosity when dispersed in hot water or boiling water, a method of preparing the same, and a food and beverage containing the same are disclosed. The processed oats may be prepared by contacting pressed oats with water or an aqueous protein solution and then drying the oats. The contacting of oats with the aqueous protein solution may be carried out before the pressing of the oats.
摘要:
A shelf-storable new and improved couscous food product satisfying traditional couscous granular mouthfeel is made by extruding a wheat-based doughy mass and cutting the extrudate into particles of uniform couscous size (i.e., between about 0.85 and about 2.5 mm. mesh). When examined under a magnification of 12 times, the new particles, although lacking the agglomeration structure of traditional couscous, have a mouthfeel structure characterized by (i) substantially smooth surfaces on the exterior thereof and (ii) angularly projecting edges on the exterior thereof. Further, the particles are substantially translucent, have a Water Absorption Index greater than 4.7, and have a substantially uniform and dense extrusion compacted composition comprised essentially of the starches and gluten-forming proteins in a blend of durum wheat flour or middlings or semolina and an optional content of flours or middlings or farinas of cereal grains other than durum wheat. At least about 80% of the dry solids weight of the starches in the product are gelatinized. The product is quickly hydratable in preparing it for consumption.
摘要:
Fried snack food products are produced by grinding cereal grain kernels such that all of the ground grain passes through a U.S. Number 20 screen, uniformly hydrating the ground grain into a grain/water slurry, cooking the grain/water slurry under conditions used to uniformly gelatinize the starch in said slurry such that a gel is formed thereby, cooling and reducing in size the gel such that dry ingredients may be added to the gel, forming the gel so that it may be cut into individual snack food pieces, and thereafter drying the pieces for long term storage or frying the pieces for immediate consumption. The process produces the snack food product which has more uniform texture, is less expensive to produce and does not have the characteristic limed flavor of conventional "Mexican-style" corn chips.
摘要:
Powdered grain or legume material is mixed with a fluid binder containing algin, seaweed derivative, albumin, chitin derivative, gelatin, gluten, pectin, agar-agar, carrageenin, carob gum, guar gum and/or gum tragacanth to form a dough that is molded, or extruded and the extruded material severed, to form synthesized kernels. Such kernels are deposited in an aqueous setting or gelling liquid, preferably containing calcium chloride or calcium lactate, for setting the fluid binder and the synthesized kernels may be cooked in such setting liquid if it is hot for a few minutes after which they are removed from the setting or gelling liquid and dried or they may be canned or frozen. If the kernels are cooked for a few minutes after being formed they will be quick-cooking. The grain or legume material may contain additives of protein, amino acid or amino acid analogue, oil or fat, coloring and flavoring material.
摘要:
Produkte aus stärkehaltigen Ausgangsstoffen, wie Getreide, Hülsenfrüchten, Saaten, Kartoffeln, Maniok und dgl. werden behandelt, um einen bestimmten Gelatinisierungsgrad zu erreichen. Das Produkt wird in einem Intensivnetzapparat (14) mit einem Abstehkasten )18) benetzt und in einem Dämpfer (20) konditioniert. Es gelangt mit einem Feuchtigkeitsgehalt von 20-30% des Gesamtgewichtes in das Walzwerk (23), dessen Walzen (24, 25) auf eine Oberflächentemperatur von 100°-200° geheizt sind. Die Anpresskräfte der Walzen sind so gewählt, dass eine Flockendicke von 0,05-0,2 mm resultiert. Nach dem Walzwerk (23) wird das Produkt in einem Wirbelschichtapparat (31) getrocknet und gekühlt, und wird durch ein Schleudersieb (37) zu Flocken des gewünschten Durchmessers oder in einer Vermahlungsmaschine (50) zu Mehl verarbeitet.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a new method for making fast cooking rice and/or other cereal grains comprising a first step of preparing rice and/or a rice product with a moisture content of 10 to 40%, characterized by adding water of 60 to 95°C to said rice and/or said rice product, and moisturing said rice or other cereal grain at a constant temperature equivalent to the temperature of the added water, until the moisture content of 10 to 40% is reached; and a second step characterized by drying the pre-moistured rice and/or a rice product to a residual moisture of lower than 14%; and a final cooling step to cool the treated rice and/or the rice product to room temperature or below.
