摘要:
According to embodiments, dry powdered compositions which may be reconstituted to provide a cheese product include at least one cheese component and a color blend. In some embodiments, the color blend includes from about 49.7% to about 87.1% curcumin compounds by weight based on a total amount of a color portion of the color blend; from about 2.1% to about 42.8% annatto carotenoids by weight based on the total amount of the color portion of the color blend; and from about 7.5% to about 10.8% paprika carotenoids by weight based on the total amount of the color portion of the color blend. In embodiments, the powdered composition includes from about 38.5 ppm to about 733.9 ppm curcumin compounds by weight based on the powdered composition; from about 3.6 ppm to about 165.7 ppm annatto carotenoids by weight based on the powdered composition; and from about 5.8 ppm to about 90.7 ppm paprika carotenoids by weight based on the powdered composition.

摘要:
A multilayer microencapsulated lactic bacteria and bifidobacteria, preferably bacteria with probiotic activity, and the use thereof to prepare a food product, supplement product, medical device or pharmaceutical composition or water- and/or fruit-based beverage are described. A process for preparing multilayer microencapsulated lactic bacteria and bifidobacteria, preferably bacteria with probiotic activity is described. A food product is described selected from water, water- and/or fruit-based beverages, milk, fresh whole milk, partially skimmed milk, powdered milk, cheese, fresh cheese, aged cheese, grated cheese, butter, margarine, yogurt, cream, milk- and chocolate-based custards, custards for sweets, jams and oily suspensions having bacteria, preferably multilayer microencapsulated lactic bacteria and bifidobacteria with probiotic activity.
摘要:
A method of fabricating probiotics nanowhiskers using cheese comprises cutting and grinding cheese to produce cheese powder; mixing the cheese powder with sulfuric acid to produce a solution; stirring the solution to produce a stirred solution; and filtering the stirred solution to produce the probiotics nanowhiskers. The fabricated probiotics nanowhiskers possess antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and antimicrobial properties. The probiotics nanowhiskers may reduce cadmium concentration in a patient's liver. The probiotics nanowhiskers may also ameliorate the oxidative stress assessed as a decrease in the serum MDA levels in a patient.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for microwave vacuum-drying of organic materials such as food products. The dehydration apparatus (20) has a vacuum chamber (24) with an input module (28) at one end and a discharge module (32) at the other. The vacuum chamber has access doors (80) spaced between the input end (30) and the discharge end (34) which provide operator and maintenance access. Microwave generators (86) are mounted on each access door and arranged to radiate through a microwave chamber and microwave-transparent window on the access door into the vacuum chamber. A pair of rollers (60) in the vacuum chamber rotates the container of organic material (112) about a horizontal axis, and a chain drive (64) pulls the containers along the rollers through the vacuum chamber.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a food ingredient composition having anti-mycotic and anti-caking functionality, and a process for producing the same. The food ingredient composition contains a particulate anti-caking material at least partially encapsulated with an encapsulating agent, and a direct action anti-mycotic material coated on particles of the encapsulated anti-caking material. The present invention is also directed to food material compositions including the food ingredient composition.

Improved food products including cheeses, fruits, cookie materials, snack chips, and seasonings are provided which are highly shelf-stable and can be stored at room temperatures for long periods of time. The products have a total moisture content of less than about 5% by weight, and more preferably less than about 2% by weight, based on the total weight of the ingredients used in the product. The products of the invention have a water activity of from about 0.2-0.3 and an average particle size of from about 0.0006-0.0012 inches (15-31 microns). The processes by which the products are made comprise subjecting the starting ingredients to two stages of average particle size reduction, wherein the first stage results in an average particle size of less than about 0.0090 inches (229 microns), and the second stage results in an average particle size of from about 0.0006-0.0012 inches (15-31 microns). In one embodiment, the particle size reduction is accomplished via a chocolate roll refining system which includes a two roll pre-refiner and a five roll refiner.
摘要:
A dried crisp cheese piece is disclosed in a first preferred form including a nonmelting cheese dried to its final moisture content by microwave energy. The nonmelting cheese generally includes a pH of greater than about 5.7. The final moisture content of the dried cheese piece is preferably between 2 and 8% by weight. The final dried cheese piece is unpuffed and requires no refrigeration. A process for making the dried cheese piece is also disclosed. The process essentially includes subjecting the nonmelting cheese having particular thickness dimensions to microwave energy to reduce the cheese piece from an initial moisture content to a final moisture content ranging from about 2% to 8%. The drying step can be practiced using forming pans to obtain finished products having various three dimensional shapes and configurations.
摘要:
Essentially dust-free powdered anti-caking agent for foodstuffs is produced by agglomerating particulate material in an airborne fraction of suspended powdered cellulose dust associated with the agitation of powdered cellulose in an enclosed space by contacting the airborne fraction of suspended powdered cellulose particles with a finely divided spray of a dilute aqueous solution of low viscosity cellulose gum and mixing to uniformity.
摘要:
Fresh cheese is milled, the milled cheese is cooled to a temperature of from below 0.degree. C. to -50.degree. C., starch is added to and mixed with the cooled cheese, and then the cooled mixture is disintegrated into finely divided pieces. The finely divided pieces may be incorporated into a dry batter mix.
