By this invention, the bitterness and smell of turmeric can be eliminated by immersing turmeric, compared with the case where turmeric and germinated brown rice are simply mixed.
Moreover, germination is delayed by storing in a refrigerator, and more turmeric components can be impregnated.
A wet type product can be manufactured by impregnating with a saline solution, and can be cooked as easily as normal rice. Turmeric may be used as it is, but it is preferable to use turmeric cut into an appropriate size or in powder form. Moreover, you may use the extract extracted previously.

The best mode for carrying out the invention will be described below.
Any of the germinated brown rice obtained by the conventional method can be impregnated with turmeric as described in the object of the present invention, so that germinated brown rice obtained by various methods can be used.
In the invention of this application, in order to impregnate brown rice into brown rice, it is characterized in that turmeric is mixed as it is or in a salt solution, and germinated brown rice is immersed in this. It has been confirmed that it is preferable to dissolve turmeric in such alcohol and then to infiltrate and infiltrate germinated brown rice with awamori-containing turmeric.
The rice of the raw material used in the invention of this application is preferably a rice harvest that is mainly harvested in the Yaeyama region of Okinawa. It is possible.
Further, in this invention, the washing water for washing the brown rice and the swelling water for infiltrating the brown rice can be used without limitation as long as they are ordinary drinking water such as household water, tap water, and well water. However, even drinking water such as mineral water processed and manufactured by a special method can be used and have an effect without shortening germination time, drying, and taste and texture. Soft water is particularly preferred.
Further, any salt may be used as the salt, but natural salt, particularly sun salt is preferable.
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail by way of examples.

The first process The raw brown rice harvested in the Yaeyama region of Okinawa, the raw material, was washed with soft water to remove impurities from the brown rice, and then 1 kg of the obtained washed brown rice was mixed with 10 g of powdered turmeric, 5 g of sun salt, And the brown rice and the turmeric are uniformly adjusted by immersing them in a mixture of sun salt containing 400 cc of turmeric containing soft water. After the adjustment, leave it for 1 hour, add 400 cc of soft water and let it stand for 2 hours to cool. Subsequently, 600 cc of soft water is added to the salt mixed solution containing chilled turmeric components consisting of brown rice, turmeric, sun salt and soft water, and left in a refrigerator for about 12 hours to obtain brown rice containing turmeric components. .
The second step The brown rice containing the turmeric component obtained in the first step was taken out of the refrigerator and allowed to stand in a room at about 25 ° C. to 27 ° C. for about 3 hours to start germination of 0.5 to 1 mm. Germinated brown rice was obtained.
