Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0013] FIG. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a process of manufacturing a scorched rice snack according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0014] Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, it will be described in detail with respect to a scorched rice snack according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

[0015] FIG. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a process of manufacturing a scorched rice snack according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

[0016] As shown in FIG. 1, according to the scorched rice snack according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the polished brown rice is washed within 24 hours, and then immersed for 3 hours at a temperature of 18° C. or lower.

[0017] Thereafter, the immersed brown rice is primarily heated and cooked to a temperature of 100° C. or more, and then the cooked brown rice is planarized to a thickness of 10 to 20 mm using a roller or the like.

[0018] The planarized brown rice is secondarily heated and dried at a temperature of about 200° C. for 4 to 6 minutes to primarily form a scorched rice base made of brown rice.

[0019] Meanwhile, sugar containing glucose and fructose is heated and liquefied to a temperature of 80 to 100° C.

[0020] In this case, it is preferable that the liquefied sugar is obtained by heating and liquefying, at a temperature of 80 to 100° C. for 1 to 2 minutes, the sugars obtained through extracting, heating and drying processes of the raw sugar of the sugar cane. Here, preferably, the liquefied sugar further includes 4 to 9 mg content of calcium, 1 to 2 mg content of magnesium, and 1 to 147 mg content of potassium based on 100 g content of the liquefied sugar.

[0021] Thereafter, a mixture including sugar is formed by mixing and heating 5 to 10 g weight of sodium bicarbonate and 0.25 to 0.5 g weight of corn starch, at a temperature of 80 to 100° C. for about 1 to 2 minutes, based on 100 g weight of liquefied sugar with respect to the liquefied sugar.

[0022] Then, the mixture is cooled to a temperature of 18° C. while the mixture is evenly compressed to a thickness of 3 to 5 mm through a compression member.

[0023] Thereafter, the cooled mixture is cut into chips to a predetermined size, preferably about 1-2 cd, while maintaining a planarized state.

[0024] Then, the chips of the cut mixture are arranged at a predetermined interval, preferably 1 to 3 cm on the surface of the scorched rice base made of the primarily formed brown rice.

[0025] The scorched rice base in which the chips are arranged is then heated in an oven at a temperature of about 100° C. to 200° C., preferably 120 to 150° C. for 2 to 3 minutes.

[0026] Thereafter, after cooling the scorched rice snack to the room temperature, the scorched rice snack is cut and packaged in a predetermined size.

[0027] As described above, according to the present invention, in the scorched rice snack made of brown rice grains, the component of the sugars, which are arranged at a predetermined interval on the upper portion of the scorched rice snack, may be induced in a partial interfacial activation state with respect to the surfaces of the brown rice grains due to the components of sodium bicarbonate and corn starch. Accordingly, the sugar component maintains proper penetration into the brown rice grains located on the surface of the scorched rice snack, and simultaneously the upper surfaces of the chips arranged at regular intervals on the surface of the scorched rice snack may maintain their shapes almost intact.

[0028] Therefore, a user using a scorched rice snack according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention may not only use the scorched rice snack without inconvenience due to sugar stickiness, but also the sugar component of the brown rice made of carbohydrates and the sugar component containing fructose provide sweet taste, differently from taste of the brown rice area thereby further improving the preference.
