摘要:
Reduced calorie fat compositions which contain combinations of substantially nonabsorbable, substantially nondigestible polyol polyesters and certain reduced calorie triglycerides that function as anti-anal leakage agents and provide textural/taste benefits are disclosed. These reduced calorie fat compositions are useful in a variety of food applications, including frying oils for salted snacks, chocolate-flavored candy bars and cooking/salad oils.
摘要:
Reduced calorie potato chips, and other low moisture fat-containing foods having less waxiness and improved flavor display are dislosed. These benefits are typically obtained by applying to the surface of the potato chip, or other food, fat compositions having certain thixotropic areas that correlate to reduced waxiness impressions. These fat compositions comprise a nondigestible fat component, and optionally a digestible triglyceride fat or oil. The nondigestible fat component comprises a nondigestible oil and preferably low levels of certain solid polyol fatty acid polyesters having ester groups comprising combinations of unsaturated (C.sub.12 or higher) and/or short chain (C.sub.2 -C.sub.12) saturated fatty acid radicals and long chain (C.sub.20 or higher) saturated fatty acid radicals. The solid polyol polyesters bind the liquid oils and thus control or prevent passive oil loss, even at relatively low levels.
摘要:
The present invention is a method for reducing the rate of moisture transmission into and out of foods comprising coating the surface of the foods with a coating containing an effective amount of polyol fatty acid esters. The polyol fatty acid esters have at least 4 fatty acid ester groups, and at least about 80% of the fatty acids contain not less than 12 carbon atoms. The method is particularly useful for preserving the crispness and thereby prolonging the shelf life of cereal and/or starch based snack foods.

This invention relates to sauces and salad dressings containing a soluble calcium source comprising specific molar ratios of calcium, citrate and malate or calcium acetate. The calcium composition is more soluble in these products than calcium citrate or calcium carbonate. The calcium citrate malate consists of a metastable complex salt. A calcium fortified vinegar is also disclosed.
摘要:
A metastable complex of calcium, citrate and malate is disclosed. This material is highly bioavailable, and is soluble in both neutral and acid solutions. The salt is prepared by the reaction of calcium carbonate, calcium hydroxide or calcium oxide with citric and malic acids in aqueous solution. The reaction mixture is dried at a temperature of less than 100.degree. C., and the resultant solid is a metastable solid. The solid can be ground to reduce the particle size for easier tabletting or adding to foods and beverages. Preferred salts are neutral and acidic salts which can be expressed by molar ratios.
摘要:
A sweetener supplement compositions which provides a bioavailable source of calcium and are stable from calcium salt precipitation for at least about four hours at temperatures of at least about 85.degree. F. (29.degree. C.). The compositions comprise:a) from about 0.6% to about 7%, by weight, soluble calcium;b) from about 2% to about 47%, by weight, of an edible acid component comprising a mixture of citric acid and malic acid wherein the ratio of citric equivalents and malic equivalents to calcium equivalents is from about 1.5:1 to about 2:1 and the ratio of citric equivalents to malic equivalents is from about 3:97 to about 93:7;c) from about 5% to about 80%, on a dry weight basis, sugar, wherein preferably at least about 15% of said sugar is fructose, on a dry weight basis; andd) from about 5% to about 92%, by weight, water.The present invention also relates to methods of making said sweetener supplements, foods and beverages containing them and to methods of enhancing the solubility and bioavailability of calcium citrate malate.
摘要:
Calcium lactate coated psyllium fiber composition and psyllium-containing baked cookie composition having high fiber content and good eating qualities. These baked cookies comprise calcium lactate coated psyllium fiber, insoluble dietary fiber, shortening, flour, sugar and water. Eating quality of these psyllium-containing cookies is especially enhanced by their reduced tendency for the composition to stick to and/or form a film on teeth during ingestion.
