The invention provides multi-purpose slightly-ground oat kernels and a production method thereof. The production method comprises the following steps of removing lignified outer coats of oat kernels,passivating the activity of
lipase and the activity of
peroxidase through performing oat
steaming twice and performing oat baking treatment once, performing high-temperature heat-
moisture treatment sothat
starch is 100% gelatinized, and then performing slight
grinding so as to obtain granules of which the thickness is 1.0-1.8mm. According to the
processing method of the multi-purpose slightly-ground oat kernels, the lignified outer coats of oat are removed through brushing the oat, so that
digestion by intestinal tracts is facilitated; the activity of the
lipase and the activity of the
peroxidase are passivated through performing oat
steaming twice and performing oat baking treatment once, so that the storage stability of products is strengthened, and the quality guarantee period is prolonged; besides, the
starch can be gelatinized through the high-temperature heat-
moisture treatment, so that the
steaming time of the products is greatly shortened; and the
ageing properties of the products can be improved through the slight
grinding, so that the steaming time is further shortened, and besides, the situation that the products have slightly glutinous mouth feel, and
chewiness and elasticity is guaranteed. The multi-purpose oat kernels disclosed by the invention not only are suitable for being applied to
processing of foods of cooked rice, porridge and soup, or coarse cereal porridge and the like, but also can be matched with foods of milk, beverages and the like.
