摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for the manufacture of an infusible beverage ingredient comprising dried fruit pieces, the process comprising the steps of: (a) providing fruit pieces and coating particles; (b) mixing the fruit pieces and the coating particles to provide coated fruit pieces; and then (c) drying the coated fruit pieces to a moisture content of less than 30 wt %, preferably to a moisture content of 0.1 to 10 wt % wherein the coating particles comprise particles of fruit peel which are less than 1.5 mm in diameter.

The present invention is concerned with providing refined plant isolates that can be used as starting materials for the production of functional food ingredients, such as taste enhancers, through an isolation process that employs ion exclusion chromatography. More particularly, the present invention provides a refined plant isolate comprising at least 30% by weight of dry matter of water soluble plant components selected from fructose, glucose, proteinaceous matter of plant origin, acids and potassium, said isolate further being characterized in that at a concentration of 40° Brix the isolate: .contains at least 0.3 wt % of glutamate; .contains at least 500 ppm of K+; .contains less than 300 ppm of Ca2+; .contains less than 700 ppm of Mg .contains less than 1 wt. % of components capable of passing an ultra filtration membrane having a molecular weight cut off of 250 kDa; wherein the concentration ratio ([Ca2+]+[Mg2+])/[K-] does not exceed 5:100, each of said cation concentrations being expressed in ppm.

The present invention relates to a method for producing natural truffle ( Tuber ssp.) flavours from truffle mycelium in culture, and to the use of at least one flavour precursor for inducing the production of volatile compounds of the natural flavour of truffle ( Tuber ssp.) fruiting bodies from truffle mycelium in culture. The invention also relates to the truffle ( Tuber ssp.) mycelium cultured according to the method of the invention, to the aromatic products having the odour and the natural taste of the truffle fruiting body, which are extracted from said truffle mycelium, and to the flavoured bodies containing same.
