2. Description of the Related Art Brown rice is richer in nutrients than polished rice, and as such is a food that has attracted attention for most of the nutrients required by humans and pet animals and its physiological effects in recent years. It is known that it is an ideal food material that is rich in fiber and contains various nutrients lacking in a general diet in a well-balanced manner. In the world, it is expected that the demand for food will be tightened in the future due to the rapid increase in the population, and there is an urgent need to utilize brown rice rich in such excellent nutritional components effectively.

[0003] As described above, brown rice, which is superior as a raw material for food and feed, has its surface covered with a robust outer layer rich in fats and oils and fibrous components. Since the hard outer layer portion rich in fibrous material impedes water absorption and heat penetration, there is a disadvantage that it is difficult to uniformly pregelatinize starch and the like and decompose the outer layer structure. In particular, the outer layer is difficult to decompose and soften by heat treatment under normal pressure.
Therefore, it has the drawback that it causes the taste to be remarkably deteriorated, and the absorption rate of the portion rich in nutrients is poor if left untouched. In particular, this tendency is remarkable in rice cakes and porridges in which the texture of the tongue leads to good taste.

In order to overcome such disadvantages of brown rice,
Conventionally, heat treatment is generally performed using an autoclave or superheated steam. However, this requires expensive equipment, energy, and a large number of workers, which leads to an increase in product costs, and it is difficult to sufficiently utilize old rice stockpiled unused. There are difficulties. In addition, even if it is high pressure treated, those made into rice cake and porridge products have hard granular materials remaining,
Commercialization is difficult because the taste is significantly impaired. Especially,
In recent years, various grains such as corn have been used as feed for pet animals represented by dogs and cats,
Brown rice, even old rice, is more expensive than other grains,
Furthermore, although superior in nutritional value, there is a problem in digestibility and absorbability as it is. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to perform heat treatment under pressure, which further increases the cost, and is a barrier for using brown rice as a raw material as it is.

[0005] By the way, such brown rice is kept at 20-36 ° C.
There is known a method of processing germinated brown rice obtained by immersing the germinated brown water in warm water adjusted for a suitable time into a food containing brown rice by steaming under normal pressure. When such brown rice is used as food, in the germination process, metabolites and the like during the germination process of brown rice, propagation of various germs, and the like, the fermentation state occurs, and unpleasant odor remains in the brown rice after heat treatment. .

[0006] In order to avoid such a situation, a method of germinating by using warm water or a dilute electrolytic saline in which a bactericide is dissolved, a method of germinating by using running water or by periodically changing hot water are used. And so on. However, the method using chemicals has a disadvantage that the influence of residual components and the smell of chemicals remain.The method of replacing hot water or using in flowing water wastes much water and energy, and takes much time for production management. There is a problem. In particular, the smell based on metabolites during the germination process of brown rice could not be removed only by sterilizing brown rice.

In the above, the temperature of the hot water is from 20 to 36
Although the temperature is appropriately selected in the range of ℃, the time required for germination is short in the range of 30 to 34 ° C. The time required for the brown rice to reach the germination state is about 40 to 60 hours in the range of 20 to 36 ° C. The ozone may be supplied by directly aerating air containing ozone generated by the ozone generator into a hot water bath containing brown rice, or by circulating hot water in which ozone is dissolved from the storage tank. Although ozone depends on the quality of water used and the cleanliness of brown rice, etc., in general, warm water in which ozone is dissolved at a concentration of 0.01 ppm has a residence time of 1 minute or less with respect to general bacteria, Escherichia coli, viruses, and the like. It has a complete sterilizing effect.
Therefore, the ozone concentration of the warm water in which the brown rice is immersed may be intermittently set to be equal to or higher than the predetermined concentration for a predetermined period of time as long as the fermentation odor and the unusual odor do not occur.

To germinate brown rice, the rice may be immersed in warm water until germination or germination, or when the brown rice grains are immersed in warm water in which ozone is dissolved and water absorption has been completed, the brown rice is taken out of the warm water bath and then immersed in hot water. Germination may be performed in an atmosphere of humidity (preferably keeping the relative humidity at 100%).
Of course, in order to prevent the fermentation odor, air containing ozone may be intermittently fed as an atmosphere surrounding brown rice, or hot water containing ozone at a predetermined concentration or more may be sprayed for a predetermined time in a shower to sterilize or Deodorizing treatment may be performed, and moisture may be supplied. Generally, taking out from a hot water bath and germinating in the air is due to humidity control, breeding of various bacteria,
Operations such as prevention of fermentation odor become complicated. As an eclectic type of germination in water and germination in the air, brown rice taken out of water after water absorption, continuously or periodically,
A method of spraying hot water in which ozone is dissolved may be used.

It is ideal. Even when it is processed into a porridge or rice cake by a conventional method, almost no granular material remains, the texture is smooth, and the nutritional value is most superior.
As the germination state progresses, sugars such as starch of brown rice are rapidly lost, and the taste of processed foods such as rice cake and porridge is reduced. In the present application, germinated brown rice includes brown rice in a germinating state (a state in which an embryo part is swollen) just before a projection-like bud appears.

According to the method of the present invention, the germicidal effect of ozone prevents the growth and fermentation of bacteria and bacteria that cause off-flavors. Generally, brown rice, when germinated,
A large amount of oxygen starts to be consumed rapidly due to the activation of metabolism, but the hot water in which ozone is dissolved works effectively as a supply source of oxygen and has the effect of promoting germination. In order to effectively exert the germination promoting effect, it is effective to agitate the water stream and supply a rich water stream in which ozone is dissolved at a low concentration to the brown rice grains. For example, in order to promote germination, it is effective to supply abundantly hot water having an ozone concentration of about 0.005 ppm during the germination period.

The superior sterilizing effect of ozone is exerted in a shorter time as the ozone concentration increases. However, at the same time, an effect of inhibiting the germination of brown rice also occurs. Therefore, except for the initial stage of the warm water bath, until the germination is completed, the concentration is relatively low (for example, 0.01 to 0.00).
(1 ppm) ozone-dissolved hot water or continuous or intermittent treatment, or, when the germination state or germination state is completed, exposure to a high-concentration (for example, 0.1 ppm or more) ozone bath for sterilization. This method has the effect of increasing the preservability of germinated brown rice.

On the other hand, brown rice that has been washed in advance is drained, and brown rice is put into a bag 80 having a large mesh through which a water flow can pass as easily as possible without dropping rice grains, and the brown rice is placed on the shelf 10. At this time, it is desirable to make the layer where the brown rice grains overlap as thin as possible. The thinner the brown rice is, the better the water is in contact with the water stream, the more uniform the temperature,
Also, the contact with the water flow is improved. If the lid 2b is closed and the switch of the ozone generator 11 is turned on, the air passing between the electrodes in the device 11 becomes oxygen-containing air by converting oxygen molecules in the air into ozone by high-pressure discharge. The water is discharged from the aeration tube 12a into water by an air pump built in the ozone generator. Stirrer 5
The heater 7 stirs the hot water in the tank while maintaining the temperature of the water at an arbitrarily selected temperature in a range of 26 to 35 ° C. Usually, the range of 26 ° C. to 30 ° C. is short and efficient.

The germinated brown rice obtained in this manner is heat-treated at normal pressure under normal pressure in accordance with the respective target products in accordance with a conventional method in the processing of polished rice. It can be processed without any change.
In the production of rice cakes and porridge, the same processing method as the production method using polished rice can be used. In addition, germinated brown rice has moderate softness and ease of tissue collapse compared to untreated brown rice, so it can be eaten raw as it is without heating, and without causing diarrhea etc. The germinated brown rice can be digested and absorbed without any loss of nutrition. Furthermore, if powdered and used, it can be easily processed into a food with excellent digestion and absorption and good texture by processing such as kneading with boiling water.

The germinated brown rice obtained in this way, particularly when it is made into rice cake, porridge, or powder, has a remarkably improved tongue-intractable point, which was inevitably inevitable in the past.
While preserving the rich nutrients of brown rice, it is possible to obtain a quality comparable to that of similar products made from polished rice. In particular, in the case of powdered products, untreated brown rice or milled rice is powdered because the structure of brown rice undergoes a germination process, so that the surface layer is softened and the internal structure easily breaks down into fine particles. In this method, the operation of making the moisture content of the rice particles uniform is not required, and a homogeneous and smooth-textured powder having no off-flavor is easily generated. In addition, such a change in the structure of brown rice without an off-flavor makes it possible to eat raw rice, which was previously impossible,
It opens up new uses for germinated brown rice as a raw food material.
