Abstract: The invention relates to a dough product having multiple textures, flavors, and colors after baking. The dough product is typically in the form of a cylinder or elongated block having a circular or polygonal cross-sectional area, and is refrigerated or frozen prior to use. The product is formed of two or more doughs having different properties after baking. For example, one of the doughs may be crispy and the other chewy. Preferably, after baking the center portion of the dough product would be chewy and the edge portion would be crispy.

Abstract: A process for the production of a pre-cooked, high moisture, shelf-stable or refrigerated, acidified filled pasta comprising a filling within a dough skin which comprises mixing pasta ingredients together to form a pasta dough, forming the dough into a sheet suitable to form the skin of the filled pasta, encasing a filling having a water activity of less than 0.93 and a pH of above 4.6 within the dough sheet to give a raw filled pasta, cooking the raw filled pasta in acidified water to a pH of above 4.6 to a moisture content of from 55 to 70% by weight, partially drying to achieve a moisture content of from 40 to 55% and a water activity of less than 0.93, and finally packaging the cooked pasta either with heat processing or under modified atmospheric conditions.

Abstract: A process for the production of a pre-cooked, high moisture, shelf-stable or refrigerated acidified filled pasta having a filling within a dough skin which includes mixing pasta ingredients together to form a pasta dough, sheeting the dough to a sheet to form the skin of the filled pasta, encasing a filling having a water activity of from 0.93 to 0.97 and a pH of from 4.6 to 5.6 within the dough sheet to give a raw filled pasta, cooking the raw filled pasta in acidified water to a pH of 4.6 to 5.6 and a moisture content of from 45% to 65% by weight and a water activity of 0.94 to 0.995, and finally packaging the cooked pasta either with heat processing or under modified atmospheric conditions.
