The correct answer is

Malting

Amylase rich food is a germinated cereal flour, usually from ragi, wheat or barley, used to make weaning gruels thin without reducing their energy density.

It is prepared by malting: the grain is soaked, germinated for 24–48 hours, dried, the rootlets removed, roasted lightly and milled; germination activates the enzyme alpha-amylase in the grain.

A small amount of this flour added to a thick cereal porridge breaks down starch into dextrins and sugars, so the porridge liquefies and a child can eat more energy in a small volume.

Fermentation relies on microbes producing acids, pasteurisation is a mild heat treatment to kill pathogens and homogenisation breaks fat globules in milk; none of these develops amylase activity in grain.

So amylase rich food is prepared by the process of malting.

Hence, Malting.
