En 1960, Asselbergs, Saidak et Hamilton, à l'Institut de recherches sur les plantes, ont étudié les pommes de terre en granules offertes sur le marché [...] Ils ont constaté que les granules [...] étaient environ deux fois plus petits que les cellules des pommes de terre fraîchement cuites et qu'ils n'avaient jamais les qualités gustatives des produits frais. Ils ont donc conçu une méthode de fabrication de pommes de terre en flocons ou en cristaux qui ressemblaient beaucoup plus à une purée de pommes de terre fraîche; leur technique consistait à faire bouillir, sécher et mettre en purée des pommes frites, à y ajouter une faible quantité de lait écrémé en poudre, puis à faire passer la purée dans un séchoir à deux tambours [...]. L'écrasement des tambours a été soigneusement réglé pour que la taille des flocons soit égale à celle des cellules d'une pomme de terre fraîchement cuite [...] 1, record 2, French, - pommes%20de%20terre%20en%20flocons
