The present invention relates to a method for mixing and processing sprouted whole grain mixture. More particularly, the method includes sprouting whole grains such as brown rice, wheat, barley, oat, Sorghum, etc., and mixing and processing the sprouted whole grains at a time. The mixing and processing process of the whole grains include: (i) steaming the sprouted whole grains to gelatinize the same (in α state); (ii) primary drying; (iii) milling; (iv) baking; and (v) secondary drying of the whole grains. The whole grains according to the present invention maintain gelatinization of starch (in α state), thereby providing soft texture. Further, the whole grains are sugar-free and additive-free while minimizing loss of physiological active ingredients such as dietary fiber, GABA, etc., thereby being helpful in preventing adult disease and promoting health. |

[Problem to be Solved] There is provided a fried noodle lump which is prevented from being inverted in a cup by external shock in a state where the fried noodle lump is stored in a cup-shaped container.[Solution] The shape retention of a bottom end portion of the fried noodle lump is secured by storing a group of noodle strings after gelatinization in a retainer and frying the lower end portion of the group of noodle strings. Accordingly, the fried noodle lump can be prevented from being inverted in a cup by external shock in a state where the fried noodle lump is stored in a cup-shaped container. Further, it is preferred to include a step of immersing the whole of the group of noodles strings in a fry oil, after the step of securing the shape retention of the bottom end portion of the fried noodle lump. |

A method and system for removing foreign grains from oat grains to establish gluten-free oats, i.e., oat grains having gluten levels below 20 ppm and, more preferably, below 10 ppm, relies upon performing a series of mechanical differentiation operations on a combination of grains, including oats and foreign, or gluten containing, grains. The various operations include aspiration, width grading and length grading steps, as well as a late stage density separating step. The resulting oats can be used to make a wide range of gluten-free oat food products, including cereal and granola products. |
