    摘要: The invention relates to an edible water-in-oil emulsion comprising a fat-phase comprising a first hardstock and a second hardstock, wherein said fat-phase has a total amount of hardstock of from 2 to 60 wt. %, based on the total weight of the fat-phase, and a water-phase, wherein part of the water-phase is dispersed as droplets, wherein the droplets are stabilized by said first hardstock; and wherein part of the water-phase is dispersed as droplets, wherein the droplets are stabilized by said second hardstock, wherein said first hardstock comprises more than 25% of HHH-triglycerides, and a combined amount of H2U and H2M triglycerides of not more than 110% of the HHH-triglycerides of said first hardstock, wherein said second hardstock comprises less than 22% of HHH-triglycerides, and a combined amount of H2U and H2M triglycerides of more than 140% of the HHH-triglycerides of said second hardstock, wherein H denotes saturated chains with 16 or more carbon atoms or an elaidic acid residue, wherein U denotes unsaturated chains and wherein M denotes saturated chains with 14 or less carbon atoms. The invention further relates to a process for the manufacture of such edible water-in-oil emulsions.

    摘要: A process for preparing a low fat water-in-oil emulsion which emulsion comprises water, oil and a hardstock fat. The process involves combining an aqueous phase and a fat phase, wherein the fat phase comprises the hardstock fat and which fat phase is at a temperature such that the fat phase is liquid, followed by subjecting the obtained mixture to high shear mixing effected a high shear mixing device, and wherein the product exiting the high shear mixing process the product is packed without having been subject to any further mixing or working process.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a process of compacting a microporous fat powder, notably a microporous fat powder that can suitably be used as an oil structuring agent.
    One aspect of the invention relates to a process for compacting a microporous fat powder, said process comprising: feeding the fat powder into the feed zone of an extruder having a forwarding screw and a barrel within which said screw is centrally positioned; rotating said forwarding screw to advance said fat powder feed through a compacting zone of the extruder where the barrel comprises a plurality of venting openings having a shorter dimension that exceeds the volume weighted average diameter of the fat powder feed and that is less than 10 mm; and expelling the compacted fat powder from the extruder; wherein the temperature of the fat powder during passage through the extruder is maintained below 40° C. and wherein the compaction factor achieved exceeds 1.5 Another aspect of the invention relates to a compacted microporous fat powder having the following characteristics: a freely settled density in the range of 90-600 g/l; a particle size distribution with at least 90 vol. % of the particles having a diameter in the range of 20 to 600 μm; a maximum G′i/G′d ratio of more than 2.0, wherein G′ represents the elastic modulus at 10° C. of a dispersion of 2 wt. % of the compacted fat powder in glycerol, and wherein the maximum ratio is determined by recording G′i whilst increasing the frequency from 0.1 to 15 s−1, by subsequently recording G′d whilst decreasing said frequency from 15 to 0.1 s−1, and by calculating the ratio G′i/G′d at the frequency at which said ratio is highest.

    摘要: The invention relates to a fermented food product being a water-continuous emulsion and being spoonable and non-liquid at a temperature of 5 degrees Celcius. The food product has a pH-value between 3.5 and 5.8, comprises at least 60 wt % water and further comprises from 10 to 25 wt % fat and from 0.05 to 15 wt % protein. The invention further relates to a process for the preparation of such food products comprising the use of a palm based fat comprising at least 30 wt % of P2U triglycerides.
