Abstract

A dried food product is prepared by cooking a quantity of grain germ in an open cooking vessel in preferably five times its quantity of water for fifteen minutes to one hour and then dehydrating by continuing heating until the moisture is driven off or by subjecting to reduced pressure or by passing the wet mass through heated rolls. The drying is continued till less than ten per cent, preferably about five per cent, of moisture remains. The product is then ground. The ground material may be mixed up to the proportion of about thirty to thirty-five per cent with liquid preparations such as cocoa, chocolate or milk or it may be converted into shredded, flaked or granular form or mixed with other cereal preparations.ALSO:A dried food product is prepared by cooking a quantity of grain germ in an open cooking vessel in preferably five times its quantity of water for fifteen minutes to one hour and then dehydrating by continuing heating until the moisture is driven off or by subjecting to reduced pressure or by passing the wet mass through heated rolls.
