    摘要: Described are methods and/or techniques for the production of culinary nut extracts, which simultaneously result in extracts and non-dairy products with favorable organoleptic properties, tasty appearance and high yields of nutritionally useful components, and which may be performed in a simple, rapid and cost-effective manner. In addition, the described methods are capable of processing in-shell culinary nuts to make effective use of the high contents of bioactive materials present in shell material. Specifically, the invention relates to a method for processing culinary nuts, comprising the steps of: a) adding water to culinary nuts to form a suspension; b) wet grinding said suspension in one or more steps to an average particle size of less than 100 μm; and c) separating the suspension into at least a solid phase comprising culinary nut solids and a liquid phase comprising culinary nut milk. Furthermore, a nut milk, edible nut-based products comprising the solid phase obtained by the aforementioned method or the nut milk, as well as nut oil extracts are disclosed.

    摘要: A shelf stable hummus food product having three ingredients; chickpeas, tahini, and spices. To keep the hummus mixture shelf stable for a longer period, it is best to isolate the Chickpeas from tahini and spices until it is ready for consumption. The three ingredients are provided in their own separate packages or bags. When required to make one, the consumer has to: rip open each packet; empty the contents completely into a container; and stir all ingredients together thoroughly until smooth. During this stirring or mixing process, the tahini mixes with the water from the chickpea puree and before the bacteria activity begins and disintegration starts, the citric acid: a) helps combining the ingredients forming a homogenous creamy and smooth paste; b) acts as an emulsifying agent to keep the tahini, water and chickpea from separating.
