摘要:
A composition for preserving solid food products comprising a moisture-sensitive isothiocyanate compound and a hygroscopic carrier, wherein the composition is substantially free of sorbic acid, benzoic acid, and salts thereof. Also disclosed is a solid food product containing the aforementioned preservative composition and a method for preserving solid food products including the steps of adding a moisture-sensitive isothiocyanate to the solid food product and storing the resulting product at a reduced temperature.
摘要:
Processes for controlling strength of an extracted beverage including providing a pseudo packed bed of an extractable beverage material and contacting at least one liquid extraction stream with the pseudo packed bed of beverage material at a selected depth to obtain at least one zone of minimum extraction and at least one zone of maximum extraction. As the depth at which the liquid extraction stream is introduced into the packed bed increases, the zone of minimum extraction increases and the zone of maximum extraction decreases.
摘要:
Processes for extracting juice from plant material containing terpene glycosides comprising the steps of crushing a plant material comprising terpene glycosides, blanching the crushed plant material in acidified water to obtain a puree, the puree comprising a juice extract and a plant solids residue, separating the juice extract from the plant solids residue, mixing enzymes with the juice extract, and separating the juice extract to obtain a sweet juice.
摘要:
Processes for isolating bitter compounds for use in food and beverage products entailing contacting a bitter compound composition with an adsorbent to adsorb bitter compounds from the bitter compound composition, desorbing the bitter compounds from the adsorbent to obtain a bitter compound isolate, and adding the bitter compound isolate to a food or beverage product to enhance the flavor thereof.
摘要:
A soluble coffee product having an improved flavor and aroma, the coffee product comprising a soluble particulate coffee and a non-aromatized coffee oil, the coffee oil having a droplet size of from about 0.1 μm to about 25 μm.
摘要:
Processes for isolating bitter quinides for use in food and beverage products entailing contacting a bitter quinide solution with an adsorbent to adsorb bitter quinides from the bitter quinide solution, desorbing the bitter quinides from the adsorbent to obtain a bitter quinide isolate, and adding the bitter quinide isolate to a food or beverage product to enhance the flavor thereof. A bitter quinide isolate made up of at least one of 3-O-caffeoyl-γ-quinide, 4-O-caffeoyl-γ-quinide, 5-O-caffeoyl-epi-δ-quinide, 5-O-caffeoyl-muco-γ-quinide, 3-O-feruloyl-γ-quinide, 4-O-feruloyl-γ-quinide, 3,4-O-dicaffeoyl-γ-quinide, 4-O-caffeoyl-muco-γ-quinide, 3,5-O-dicaffeoyl-epi-δ-quinide, 4,5-O-dicaffeoyl-muco-γ-quinide, 5-O-feruloyl-muco-γ-quinide, 4-O-feruloyl-muco-γ-quinide, 5-O-feruloyl-epi-δ-quinide, quinide esterified with one or more of caffeic acid, ferulic acid, p-courmaric acid, 2,4-dimethoxycinnamic acid and mixtures thereof.
摘要:
A process for enhancing theanine extraction from plant material through a series of extraction, adsorption and filtration steps. More specifically, disclosed is a process for isolating theanine from a plant material, which includes the steps of: a) contacting the plant material with a solvent to obtain an extract comprising theanine; b) contacting the theanine extract with an adsorbent to obtain a theanine-containing eluate; and c) subjecting the theanine eluate to a filtration step to obtain a theanine-rich extract.
摘要:
A process for producing an essential oil. The essential oil can be white mustard essential oil. The white mustard essential oil can include a moisture sensitive isothiocyanate compound. The moisture sensitive isothiocyanate compound can be 4-HBITC. The essential oil can be produced from mustard seed, which can comprise a precursor sinalbin and myrosinase enzyme. The mustard seed can be reduced into a powder. Activation of the myrosinase enzyme by using a water solvent and a promoter to form a slurry can be performed, wherein the myrosinase enzyme catalyzes the production of an essential oil comprising an isothiocyanate from the sinalbin precursor.
摘要:
A snack chip comprising from about 15% to about 60% of vegetable material; from about 40% to about 65% of starch material made from materials selected from the group consisting of tapioca, rice and mixtures thereof; from about 0.1% to about 3.0% water; and from about 1% to about 20% of optional ingredients. At least about 40% of the starch material is pre-gelatinized. The snack chip can be made by combining the vegetable material and dry ingredients with water to form a dough which is then sheeted, dried without the use of a heated extruder to form a half product, which is cooked to form the snack chip.
