Title: Shuwen Lu and Microwave-Induced Cracking for Easy-to-Cook Whole Grains.
Introduction
Shuwen Lu is an inventor associated with Harbin, China, and the Institute of Food Processing, Haas. Her work includes food-processing innovation aimed at making whole grains easier to prepare.
Latest Patents
Lu is associated with 1 patent, titled “Preparation Method of Easy-to-Cook Whole Grain Based on Microwave-Induced Cracking.” The invention describes heat-moisture treatment followed by short-time microwave-induced cracking, tempering, and cooling. The resulting grain remains intact, expands slightly, and develops fine surface cracks. According to the patent description, during rice steaming, the treated whole grain absorbs 1.9 times its original weight in water, compared with 1.35 times for unprocessed whole grain.
Career Highlights
The patent focuses on improving whole-grain preparation through a sequence of processing steps that increase water absorption while preserving the grain’s overall form. This approach belongs to the technical field of food processing.
Collaborations
Lu’s listed coworkers include Chuanying Ren and Bin Hong. The provided information associates her with the Institute of Food Processing, Haas.
Conclusion
Shuwen Lu’s patent presents a microwave-based method for preparing whole grains that absorb more water during steaming while retaining their structure.
