METHOD FOR MANUFACTURE OF SWOLLEN PRODUCT OF PEELED SUNFLOWER SEEDS Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A23L1/10 A23L1/25 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to flour-and-cereals industry, in particular, to a method for manufacture of a swollen product of peeled sunflower seeds. The method includes seeds soaking, drying with infrared rays and treatment with infrared rays. Seeds soaking in water is performed at a temperature of 18-20°C during 30 hours till seeds moisture content is equal to 35-37%. Seeds drying with infrared rays is performed at wave length amounting to 0.9-1.1 mcm with radiant flux density equal to 11-13 kW/m² during 2.0-2.5 minutes till moisture content is equal to 28-30%. Seeds treatment with infrared rays is performed at wave length amounting to 0.9-1.1 mcm with radiant flux density equal to 20-22 kW/m² during 90-100 sec till the seeds temperature is equal to 170-180%.

EFFECT: invention implementation ensures production of a product ready for consumption and having enhanced food and biological value.
