Abstract

Emping' is a traditional food made from 65-70 percent matured grain of glutinous paddy.

The modern method makes use of the flaking machine. The moisture content of the grain is an important factor affecting the quality of final product and it should be more than 23 percent. Pulut Gajah was found to be the most suitable variety for 'emping' processing. Several ways of serving 'emping' as breakfast cereal were discussed
