Senbei rice crackers originated from Japan and are enjoyed all over the world as a crunchy and delightful snack that packs a lot of flavors in it. In this piece, we look at the preparation steps of senbei rice crackers, right from the choice of rice to the finished crunchy product.
Choosing the Rice
It is worth noting that the type of rice plays a major role in the production of senbei. For the thin crunchy wafer, short-grained rice is selected as a median grained rice. Therefore, this rice undergoes procedures that polish it and get rid of impurities.
Making the mixture
The rice is soaked and sometimes flavored with soy sauce, sake, or seaweed. The ingredients are fully integrated into one mixture and it forms a paste-like substance, the paste is then rolled and cut into desired portions.
Cooking and Adding Tastes
The paste-sliced dough is placed into an oven under high heat until the dough expands and hardens. The already-cooked senbei might then have additives that are in form of salt, sugar, or other substances to give a different taste.
Quality Control
The quality of the senbei crackers is checked in every batch to ascertain that the crackers are baked uniformly and that there are no flaws in any of them. This level of attention aims to improve the experience while consuming the crackers.
Packaging and Distribution
After the senbei have cooled down, the next step is to place them in vacuumed packs so they can retain their age. The crackers are then available for ready for sale as a snack or alongside tea.
