The present application relates to a method for preparing an instant rice and an instant rice prepared thereby, wherein even when the instant rice is prepared using raw ingredients that are susceptible to microbial contamination or difficult to sterilize, the amount of microorganisms in the prepared instant rice is lower than a threshold value, and thus a sufficient sterilization effect can be achieved, and the problem of reducing Bap quality that may cause due to strict sterilization does not occur, and thus an instant rice having excellent texture and taste quality can be provided.

The present application relates to an instant rice and, more particularly, to an instant whole-grain rice, wherein even when the instant rice is prepared using raw ingredients which are that are susceptible to microbial contamination or difficult to sterilize, the microorganisms in the final instant rice are lower than a standard value, and thus a sufficient sterilization effect can be exhibited, and deterioration of rice quality, which may be caused due to strict sterilization, may not occur, and thus instant rice with excellent texture and taste quality can be provided.

The current document is directed to methods and systems for manufacturing frozen-sushi food products that remain texturally and compositionally stable while frozen and refrigerated for extended periods of time. A variety of different processing steps and ingredients are employed to prevent retrogradation of gelatinized starch in cooked sushi rice, including quick cooking of the rice, employing non-nutritive sweeteners in place of sugar, controlling the amount of salt in the sushi rice, and use of amylase and gellan gum.

Providing a rice wrapper which can be accurately and easily formed into a deformed conical shape having a constant apex angle is disclosed. The solution provides a rice wrapper having a rectangular shape, which used, is formed into a deformed conical shape having an apex formed by an intermediate part of one long side, the deformed conical shape is formed by: rolling a part forming one corner part located between one short side and the one long side as an inside rolled part in such a way that the one corner part is placed at an intermediate part of the opposite other long side; rolling a part on the other short side over the inside rolled part as an outside rolled part; and fixing the outside rolled part onto the inside rolled part. The rice wrapper has an outer film provided with a first mark for positioning the part on the other short side which is rolled as the outside rolled part when the deformed conical shape is formed.

An improved method of detoxifying gluten proteins from cereal grains produces detoxified cereal grains with a reduction of antigenicity of toxic epitopes of gluten proteins by up to a range between 0 and 20 ppm. The detoxified cereal grains can be advantageously used for preparation of of food products (e.g. bakery products, pasta or dairy products) having a manifest preventive and/or therapeutic effect for gut dysbiosis caused by bacterial or viral infective agents or by pathologies with a strong inflammatory or autoimmune component such as celiac disease, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease and irritable intestine syndrome.

Raw material rice (brown rice and partially-milled rice) is subjected to a preliminary pressurized steam-boiling process to form an alpharized layer on the surface of the raw material rice, and then a moisture adding process is performed. Since the surface of the raw material rice is alpharized to become stiff with the preliminary pressurized steam-boiling process, even rapid moisture addition does not cause a crack in the raw material rice. Therefore, water absorption can be quickly achieved to a target moisture content, thereby reducing a moisture adding time. Also, with no crack, quick-cooking rice with an excellent outer appearance of rice as a product and without a drain of nutrients in rice grains at the time of rice cooking.
