Description

  The present invention relates to a packaged food mainly made from side-rice rice for one meal or less.

In recent years, the diet has diversified and the number of types of staple foods has increased, and from the viewpoint of maintaining and improving health by eating, not only white rice but also cooked rice and mixed rice are used for the meal. There is a growing tendency to eat favorite rice such as rice, and to eat polished rice and brown rice and germ rice, as well as mixed rice such as wheat, rice bran and rice bran.
For this reason, in addition to milled rice, in addition to brown rice and germinated rice, miscellaneous grains such as wheat, rice bran and rice bran have been sold as “rice of rice” in recent years.

The problem to be solved is that the above-mentioned raw rice such as brown rice and cereals are cooked by mixing a predetermined amount with polished rice in advance.
In other words, brown rice, millet, etc. are cooked differently from polished rice, so it is impossible to cook with polished rice. For example, brown rice is soaked and cooked longer than polished rice, so when polished rice is cooked properly, brown rice is undercooked, and under the conditions that brown rice can be cooked properly, polished rice is overcooked. In any case, it is not a preferred cooked rice.
There is also a problem that it is not preferable to cook with a rice cooker at home because cooked rice mixed with wheat etc. in polished rice, so-called wheat rice, etc. is liked and disliked by families.

The present invention is prepared by previously cooking miscellaneous grains such as brown rice and germ rice, or a small portion thereof, to make side rice, which is mixed with white rice or eaten as it is, Cereals such as rice and germinated rice are first packed in a heat-resistant and water-permeable bag and cooked, and then the bag is sealed in a heat-resistant airtight bag to improve storability and distribution at room temperature. The most important feature is that it enables sales.

The packaged food of the present invention is cooked in advance and mixed with white rice or eaten as it is, and since one meal or smaller is individually packaged, There is an advantage that each person can eat whatever they like at any time.
Also, by mixing this with separately cooked rice or adding it to the rice cooker before the rice is cooked, you can also make mixed rice and cooked rice, which can further increase the variety of rice and eat There is also an advantage that the improvement of

In order to produce the packaged food of the present invention, 1) First, brown rice, germ rice, wheat, other cereals, rice cake, cereals, etc., and vegetables, chicken, etc., and grains, cereals, etc., are washed. Drain the fish and chop the lump of vegetables, chicken, etc. to an appropriate size, remove the moisture and adhesive components on the surface to eliminate mutual adhesion, or dry them into a bag-like container. Each is individually or appropriately mixed, and several grams to several tens of grams are filled into a small heat-resistant and water-permeable bag-like container.
2) Next, this small package is put into a heating tank and boiled for several minutes to several tens of minutes to cook.
In this operation, the grains in the small package absorb the boiling liquid that permeates and swell, so it is necessary to use a bag-like container having a size that can absorb the increase in the volume of the filling. As an example, a tetrahedral bag is used.
When the material is mainly made of cereals, the product becomes boiled rice if boiled with hot water, and when the material is vegetable, the product becomes boiled and vegetable.
When the material is boiled with the seasoning liquid, the product is seasoned side rice if it is mainly made of cereal, and the product is boiled vegetable when the material is vegetable.
In addition, it is good for the vegetables that the apparent volume is not significantly reduced by boiling. In this respect, root vegetables are suitable for vegetables.
3) Next, take out this small package from the heating tank, seal one or several pieces in a heat-resistant airtight bag, sterilize by heating, and have high storage stability (can be distributed to the market at room temperature). And
There is no particular limitation on the method of sterilization treatment.
For example, like the retort pack system, this is put in a steam kettle and sterilized by heating at a temperature of about 70 to 120 ° C. for several minutes to several tens of minutes.
In addition, since the material in the small package cooked in the step of boiling in the heating tank of 2) is reheated by this operation, the boiling time is shortened by the amount of the heat sterilization treatment in the step of 2), and the heat sterilization is performed. It is preferable that a predetermined cooking is achieved by doing so.
In the case where oxygen is present in the airtight bag and the material changes in quality or taste deteriorates, it is preferable to replace the oxygen with nitrogen.

25 g of germ rice is packed in a net bag with a capacity of 40 ml and wrapped in pillow. This is put into a heating tank containing 50 ml of soy sauce mixed with 2000 ml of water and boiled for 30 minutes. After removing from the tank and draining, 6 bags were put in a heat-resistant airtight bag together with nitrogen gas and sealed, and this was heated in a steam kettle at 105 ° C. for 20 minutes for sterilization.
The germinated rice in the sealed bag became germinated rice, which did not change after 6 months and did not lose its taste.
Moreover, when this germinated rice was heated with a microwave oven and mixed with freshly cooked white rice, the white rice became a delicious mixed rice.

The packaged food produced by this production method can be taken out of the packaging bag and eaten as it is, or it can be mixed with rice. Moreover, since an appropriate amount is individually packaged, it can be used not only for individuals at home but also for commercial use.
