A method of producing cooked cereal grains containing a high level of whole oats for a shredded ready-to-eat cereal. The method begins by disposing a whole grain oat into a mixer. The whole grain oat has an exposed first starch. Next, a second whole grain is disposed into the mixer. The second whole grain has an exposed second starch that is different from the first starch. A third starch is disposed into the mixer to act as a binder of the whole grain oat and second whole grain. Water is added to the mixer to form a mixture that is cooked to form cooked cereal grains containing high levels of whole oats. The cooked grains are shredded and layered to form a shredded wheat-like biscuit.
The subject invention relates to a particulate filled edible product and a method of making the particulate filled edible product. The edible product comprises an edible shell of dough that defines an enclosed cavity having a cavity volume. At least one edible food particulate is disposed within the cavity. The food particulate has a particulate volume that is less than the cavity volume and the at least one food particulate moves freely in the cavity.
In summary, the invention is a method of producing an edible food product. The method includes the step of forming a vessel core (12) with a first material having a first level of susceptibility to heating by induction. The method also includes the step of casting an apron (14) of a second material with a second level of susceptibility to heating by induction lower than said first level around at least a first portion the vessel core (12) in an in situ casting process to form a clad cooking vessel (10) having a cooking surface (24). An uncooked food product is then disposed on the cooking surface (24) of the clad cooking vessel (10) and heated to produce the edible food product by subjecting the vessel core (12) to a magnetic field.
The present invention provides crisp filled foods, intermediates, and processes for making them. Particularly, the present invention provides crisp crackers, pretzels, breadsticks, cookies and the like with creamy and lubricious filling. Efficient processes are also provided for making such crisp filled foods, wherein dough is baked, fried or similarly heated in the presence of a specially-formulated powder so as to ultimately result in a lubricious filling and a crisp exterior. Superior intermediates and end products are therefore also provided. The foods surprisingly retain their crisp exterior and lubricious interior for an extended time span when packaged and stored under commercial conditions.
The present invention provides improved methods for producing crackers with food particulates adhered to the surface, as well as the crackers produced by the methods. The processes described result in crackers which retain more topping and reduce waste. Moreover, the processes provide optional lower-fat formulations of a sweetened, hand-held food.
The present invention provides snack-sized or accompaniment food items with cracker texture, appearance and flavor on one side, and pretzel texture, appearance and flavor on the other side. Efficient processes are also provided for making such food items, wherein a dough is treated so as to create a dual texture. Superior intermediates and end products are therefore also provided.
The present invention provides food compositions useful as ready-to-eat cereals, snacks, and toppings, and processes for making them. Particularly, the present invention provides food compositions with crisp texture, reduced fat, and surprising bowl life when used as a ready-to-eat cereal. The present food compositions are also an improvement over previous toppings or snacks, in that the present compositions comprise fewer 'fines' or individual grains. Moreover, since the present compositions comprise a dough binder rather than a sugar binder, nutritional supplementation is possible, such as the addition of fiber. Efficient processes are also provided for making the present food compositions. Superior intermediates and end products are therefore also provided.
A method of producing a packaged food product begins by directing a plurality of food particles into a flexible container to at least partially fill the flexible container. A quantity of air is then evacuated out of the flexible container to create a vacuum within the flexible container. Next, an opening in the flexible container is sealed or closed. Air is then allowed to seep through a sidewall of the container after closing or sealing the flexible container to permit air to gradually flow back into the flexible container to gradually dissipate the vacuum within the flexible container.

A food piece with a first dough sheet having a first inner surface, a first outer surface, and a first peripheral edge. The food piece also includes a second dough sheet having a second inner surface, a second outer surface, and a second peripheral edge. The first peripheral edge of the first dough sheet is joined together with the second peripheral edge of the second dough sheet to define a perimeter. The food piece also includes an embossment positioned within the perimeter. The embossment extends upon at least one of the first outer surface and the second outer surface and includes at least one line along which the first and second dough sheets are joined.
A method for printing images on food and packaging for the food. The method includes the step of moving a plurality of food products along a first production line to a first printing station. The method also includes the step of moving a plurality of containers along a second production line to a second printing station. This step is performed during the step of moving the plurality of food products. The method also includes the step of printing a first image on at least one of the food products during the step of moving the plurality of food products. The method also includes the step of selecting a second image from a plurality of differing images in response to the first image. The second image is complementary to the first image. The method also includes the step of printing the second image on one of the containers during the step of moving the plurality of the containers. This step is performed concurrently with the step of printing the first image. As a result of the concurrent printing of the first and second images, a printed food product and a printed container, respectively, are produced. The second image on the printed container complements the first image printed on the food product.

Disclosed is an engrossing syrup for a pan coating process and a process that enables one to coat a food piece with a soft sugar coating that retains its softness over time. The process also allows the coating to occur at low coating temperatures. In addition, the process produces a thinner and softer coating to provide a novel taste and texture to the coated food piece. The engrossing syrup can be used to coat a wide variety of types of food pieces using a pan coating process.
