In 1990s, with the rapid development of China's economy and the acceleration of urbanization, fast food culture became popular in China. Dehydrated rice, as one of the most convenient fast food, has gradually entered people's lives. Compared with traditional boiled rice, dehydrated rice is more convenient and faster, and it can save cooking time and energy. However, due to the single variety of ingredients and general taste, it has long been unpopular.

Production technology of dehydrated rice

Dehydrated rice is generally made by cooking, air drying and vacuum packaging. First, add water to the rice in a large container, and put it in a steamer (ordinary pressure cooker can also be used) to cook for about an hour. Then, take out the rice and spread it to room temperature or slightly cool. At this time, you can add various vegetables or meat as ingredients. Next, spread the rice on a dry drying net and let it dry naturally. Finally, the dried rice is packed into a vacuum packaging bag, sealed with a vacuum sealing machine, printed with relevant information such as production date and shelf life, and then sold or stored.

Nutritional value of dehydrated rice

Dehydrated rice is made by using advanced dehydration technology, and its nutritional value is indeed lower than that of freshly cooked rice. The main disadvantages are: lack of vitamins and minerals, and easy loss of nutrients such as protein, so dehydrated rice can be considered as a food with high calorie and low nutrition. However, in this case, different kinds and tastes of ingredients can be added, and trace elements such as colloid and protein can be supplemented to improve their nutritional value.

Market influence of dehydrated rice

In the 1990s, dehydrated rice was one of the most popular fast foods, mainly because it was convenient, fast, easy to carry and had a long shelf life. However, the market share of dehydrated rice is gradually shrinking due to the shortcomings of single type and taste of ingredients and low relative nutritional value of ingredients. At the same time, various foreign fast food brands and traditional catering industries are gradually occupying market share. Sometimes people will ignore the taste and nutrition of food under the temptation of rapid demand and low price, which will have an impact on health.
