摘要： A process for the manufacture of reconstituted rice is disclosed which comprising the steps of a) providing or preparing a mixture containing comminuted rice matrix material; b) hydrating the mixture to obtain a paste and kneading the paste obtained until the rice starch is at least semi-gelatinized; c) forming the semi-gelatinized mass to strands and cutting them to obtain grains similar or equal to the size of rice grains; and d) drying the grains. The mixture provided or prepared in step a) contains fibers and/or fibers are added during step b) and/or between step b) and step c). The fibers have a water absorption capacity of at least 2, preferably at least 3, most preferably at least 4. Moreover, the invention relates to reconstituted rice produced by such a method, to a mixture comprising reconstituted rice and natural rice and to a use of reconstituted rice for enriching natural rice.
