Abstract
The making process is as follows: the rice or mixture of rice and other starch raw material is soaked and cleaned out the grit, grinding, kneading dough, noodle making, fristy loosing, rubing for loosing before steaming, steaming, secondly loosing, rubing for loosing after steaming, stoving, and cutting the noodles in specific length, packing, then the product is obtd.. It can also be added with the leach liquor of ginseng and tuber of elevated gastrodia or mush room and tomato etc. The product made by said method features good in appearance quality and toughness, resistance to boil, good mouth feeling and high rate of certifed products.
Description
The present invention relates to food processing technology, especially relate to a kind of straight rice-flour noodles production technology.
The ground rice production great majority of China are still workshop-based production at present, and hand labour intensity is bigger, and furnace drying method mostly is the sunlight oven dry or dries naturally, therefore yield poorly, production can not form scale, and kind is single, and product appearance is of poor quality, curved bar, drafting are many, and bar is directly poor, and big fleck and steam bubble are many, fecula is many, the well-done degree of product is not high, sticks with paste Tang Bunai and boils, and is easily broken immalleable.Though and existing rice flour noodle production line can be produced continuously, output improves, but because its technological design is reasonable inadequately, the product appearance bubble is many, bar is directly poor, immalleable, not anti-boiling, what have also need solve the drafting problem by evacuating agent, as publication number be the name of CN1089812A be called that " novel process for preparing of ground rice " patent application case adopts be by just cut off after the twin-screw extruder extruding wire vent, dry method produces ground rice, the ground rice of producing have not anti-ly boil, inviscid shortcoming, and be prone to the drafting phenomenon by bean vermicelli or the vermicelli that the twin-screw extruder squeezes out.
The object of the present invention is to provide that a kind of product appearance quality is good, bar is straight, no bubble, no drafting, good toughness, well-done degree height, no fecula, smooth anti-straight rice-flour noodles production technology of boiling, not sticking with paste soup, excellent taste.
The object of the present invention is achieved like this: production technology of the present invention is:
(1) advancing meter placer soaks: will qualified rice or at rice with after other starch material mixes, naughty shakeout grain, impurity are put into the pond again and are soaked;
(2) pulverize: the raw material after will soaking is rinsed well, is crushed to greater than 60 purpose granularities by pulverizer then, obtains particle;
(3) and powder: the particle of pulverizing is mixed by flour mixer, stir, obtain raw material, and the control water content is about 35%;
(4) wire vent: will with raw material after even from the extruding of ripe double helix vermicelli machine, stir ripe in advance, extrusion modling wire vent under the ripe effect, shaping again, and pluck under fan action that silk is sheared and preliminary the evacuation;
(5) once loose: wire vent is preliminary after evacuating bean vermicelli, vermicelli are hung into airtight decide to pour into steam in the bar chamber, heat and moisture preserving, sweating is loose, and fixed strip is straight under the gravity effect;
(6) rub scattered before the steaming: the bean vermicelli after loose, vermicelli are rubbed with the hands and opened;
(7) steam material: bean vermicelli, vermicelli after will rubbing scattered are sent in the steaming cabinet and are cooked;
(8) secondary is loose: the bean vermicelli after will cooking, vermicelli are sent into and are rubbed scattered the chamber, use plastic bag sealing, and sweating is loose;
(9) rub scattered after steaming: after bean vermicelli, the vermicelli with secondary after loose are rubbed with the hands with hand is thick, unclog and readjust neatly with evacuating brush again;
(10) powder is cut in oven dry: the bean vermicelli that will rub scattered after will steaming, vermicelli are hung into barn, in the process of low temperature → high temperature → low temperature continuously, little by little oven dry is cooled off, and with machine for cutting vermicelli length segment in accordance with regulations;
(11) packing: get product with packing after the bean vermicelli after the segment, the vermicelli classification.
The present invention also comprises recovery process, promptly by rubbing scattered, steam material before steaming, rubbing scattered, dry the bean vermicelli, the vermicelli chieftain that cut powder, packaging process generation after steaming and clean out, remove impurity respectively, recovery is sent into pulverizing process or immersion and is eased back and send into and the powder operation after the chopping, squeezes a silk moulding by vermicelli machine gelatinization again again.
Described other starch material is meant starch materials such as corn, potato class, beans, taro.
The present invention also can with the powder operation in tonic health medicines such as genseng, rhizoma Gastrodiae, Gynostemma pentaphylla, Poria cocos are soaked juice and raw material mix, produce nourishing and health type bean vermicelli, vermicelli.
The present invention also can with the powder operation in dish juice such as powder such as mushroom, garlic, peanut, garlic benevolence or spinach, tomato and raw material are mixed, produce multivitamin nutrient bean vermicelli, vermicelli, become pollution-free food.
The present invention has designed before going out wire process and the powder operation, after going out wire process, designed once loose, rub scattered, steam that material, secondary are loose before steaming, rub scattered after the steaming, by the operation of low temperature → high temperature → low temperature drying, just can make that the product appearance quality is good, look transparent is in vain, bar does not directly have bubble, need not add evacuating agent and just eliminate the drafting phenomenon fully, guaranteed the natural flavour mountaineous of ground rice, and toughness of products is good, starch βization degree height is well-done height, no fecula, smooth anti-boiling, do not stick with paste soup, bite is arranged, excellent taste; The present invention has adopted the multiple tracks recovery process that the percentage of A-class goods of product is improved, no waste product, reduced cost, and can select different press for extracting juice plates to produce difformity products such as bean vermicelli, vermicelli, flat powder, also nourishing and health type bean vermicelli, vermicelli or multivitamin nutrient bean vermicelli, vermicelli be can make as required, product seriation, diversification made.
