SWEET PEA GRAIN FLAKES PRODUCTION METHOD Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A23L1/10 A23L1/164 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: sweet pea grain flakes production method involves impurities removal from grains, grains soaking in water at a temperature of 18-20°C during 36 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 2.5-2.7 minutes till moisture content is equal to 30-32%. Then grains are treated with infrared rays at the same wave length with radiant flux density equal to 18-20 kW/m² during 95-105 sec till the grains temperature is equal to 160-170°C with subsequent flattening into 0.6-0.7 mm thick flakes.

EFFECT: manufactured product ready for consumption has high yield, high nutritive and biological value and improved quality.
