unpuffed
Lacking air expansion
Unpuffed describes something that hasn't been puffed or expanded—typically grains or cereals that remain in their dense, unprocessed state: unpuffed rice, unpuffed wheat.
The word appears mainly in food contexts, distinguishing regular grains from their airy, puffed counterparts.
