PEA GRAIN FLAKES PRODUCTION METHOD Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A23L1/10 A23L1/25 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to flour-and-cereals industry and is intended for production of pea grain flakes. The flakes production method involves impurities removal from grains. Then grains soaking in water is performed at a temperature of 18-20°C during 35 hours till grains moisture content is equal to 40-42%. Grains drying with infrared rays is performed at wave length amounting to 0.9-1.1 mcm with radiant flux density equal to 12-14 kW/m² during 2.4-2.6 minutes till moisture content is equal to 30-32%. Grains treatment with infrared rays is performed at wave length amounting to 0.9-1.1 mcm with radiant flux density equal to 18-20 kW/m² during 90-100 sec till the grains temperature is equal to 160-170°C with subsequent flattening of grains into 0.6-0.7 mm thick flakes.

EFFECT: invention implementation ensures increased yield of the product ready for consumption and having enhanced food and biological value.
