Three of the following are obtained from rice milling. Which is not?

Molasses

Husk

Bran

Broken rice

  • A.Husk
  • B.Bran
  • C.Broken rice
  • D.Molasses

Answer: D

Correct answer: Molasses

Molasses comes from sugar manufacture, not from rice milling. It is the syrup remaining once no further sucrose can economically be crystallised from cane or beet juice.

The other three are all rice milling by-products: husk from hulling, at about 20 per cent of the paddy; bran from whitening, at 8 to 10 per cent and carrying the oil; and broken rice from the grading stage, sold at a discount to whole grains or used for starch, flour and brewing.
