Puffed food is made of grains, potatoes or beans as the main raw materials, and is made into a kind of crispy tissue with a certain degree of puffing and a kind of crispy and flavorful with a certain degree of puffing, which is made by puffing processes such as baking, frying, microwave or extrusion, etc. , Snacks of different styles.

The starch in food raw materials is quickly gelatinized during the puffing process, and the preservation rate and digestibility of nutrients are increased, which is conducive to nutrient absorption. Accept it, taste good. In addition, the dietary fiber contained in food helps digestion. In addition, the protein-rich plant materials are extruded and expanded at high temperature for a short time, the protein is completely denatured, and the tissue structure becomes porous, which is more conducive to contact with human digestive enzymes, thereby improving the utilization and digestibility of protein.

In the process of preservation of grain food, rejuvenation is a common problem. Due to the rejuvenation, the taste of the product becomes rough and the digestibility is greatly reduced. In the puffing process of puffed food, the molecular structure of starch is completely changed, and no retrogradation will occur.

In addition, there have been reports on the Internet about the aluminum and lead content in puffed food, so I would like to clarify it with you. Because in the early years, the national standards for puffed food were not as perfect as they are now. Some black-hearted manufacturers used most of the machine materials to produce puffed foods that did not meet the food standards, which caused the puffed food production process to be contaminated with machinery. On the other hand, the food additives used by everyone at that time also contained excessive lead. This has led to a serious excess of lead and aluminum content in the final product.

With the introduction of various national policies and standards in recent years, the machines used to produce puffed food are now in compliance with food hygiene standards. Just like all the equipment of our Shandong Arrow Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd., the food-contact parts are made of food-grade 304 stainless steel or food-grade PVC. The additives used for customer test machines are also in full compliance with sanitary standards. Don’t worry about excessive heavy metal content.
