ABSTRACT:
Microwave methods for toasting an unpuffed ready-to-eat cereal base are provided in full or partial substitution for conventional toasting methods. The methods comprise the step of subjecting a wet cereal base piece to a brief exposure to a high intensity (>125 V/cm) microwave field for about 5 to 25 seconds. The microwave toasted cereal pieces exhibit superior flavor resulting from "interior" toasting of the cereal base.
