    摘要: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for thawing a frozen rice ball wrapped with a plurality of films holding a laver sheet between the films and effective for regenerating the taste and flavor of the rice ball to a state before freezing and keeping the flavor of the laver sheet. SOLUTION: The frozen rice ball R to be thawed has a flat and thick polygonal or circular shape in plan view and is wrapped its circumference with a plurality of films holding a laver sheet inserted between the films. The side face of the outer circumference of the frozen rice ball R is supported with a pair or right and left line-contacting members 4w, 4w and the rice ball is held in a heat-treatment chamber 2 in a posture to incline the outer side face and heated by the gentle supply of hot air until the core temperature of the frozen rice ball R exceeds 10 deg.C. The supply of hot air is stopped before the surface temperature of the rice ball reaches 30 deg.C and the ball is slowly cooled to obtain a thawed rice ball having a water content of 62.5%±1.5% at the inner and outer layers and that of the laver sheet of

    摘要: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a rice with a huge germ having high nutritive to be effectively utilized and a food such as a retort food and a sweet food suitable for the modern age valuing the health to be produced by efficiently improving the quality of the rice with the huge germ by subjecting the rice with the huge germ to germination treatment. SOLUTION: A rice with a huge germ having >=3 wt.% germ proportion, such as a brown rice of 'Chugoku No.137' of huge germ descent is subjected to a germination treatment to improve the quality of the rice with the huge germ. Preferably, the germination treatment is carried out, for example, by washing 450 g brown rice of the 'Chugoku No.137', using a home germination tool, dipping the washed rice in 675 g water charged in a home germination tool, and treating the rice at 31 deg.C water temperature for 20 hr. A food such as a retort processing food such as a cooked rice, a food of sweets such as a rice cake, and a food material for processing such as a powder of the brown rice, containing the rice with the huge germ subjected to the germination treatment is preferably prepared.
