What are the advantages of puffed food
Overall, puffed food is a new type of food in the last century. We all know that puffed food is crispy and delicious, but there are still many unknown advantages of puffed food and its benefits for people's consumption.
1. Improved taste and taste: After being puffed, the coarse and hard tissue structure of the coarse grain is damaged, and the taste of the coarse grain can no longer be seen or tasted. The taste is soft, and the taste is improved and delicious.
2. Convenient to eat: After being puffed, coarse grains have become cooked food, which can be directly washed with boiling water, made into compressed food, or processed into various foods. Eating toilet and saving time. As long as the grain department, factories, mines, enterprises, institutions, and schools supply puffed powder, it can be processed and prepared in households or collective canteens, becoming a truly convenient food.
3. High preservation and digestion rate of nutrients: How does the expansion process affect the preservation rate of nutrients. From the data, it can be seen that the nutritional retention and digestibility of puffed foods are relatively high, indicating that the puffing process has no impact on the nutrition of the food, and its digestibility is higher than that of non puffed foods.
4. Easy to store: After being expanded, the grain undergoes a high-temperature sterilization process, and the moisture content of the expanded powder is reduced to below 10%. This low moisture content limits the growth of insects and mold, enhances their stability during storage, and is suitable for long-term storage. It is also suitable for making war readiness military rations and improving their edible quality.
5. Cheap price: With the indirect heating extruder, the processing cost is about 6 cents per kilogram of corn flour, which means that the price per kilogram of extruded corn flour is 26 cents. Local workers in our country are calculated at 10 kilograms of coarse grain per person per month, and their monthly expenses only increase by 60 cents per person, which is something that people can afford economically. If a continuous automatic puffing machine is developed in the future, its processing cost can be further reduced.
