Abstract: Doughs and batters are prepared which contain hydrated polysaccharide hydrocolloid hydrated insoluble fiber and hydrated protein preferably at a weight ratio of 1:0.8-6:1.1-4.5. The hydrated materials are added to the dough or batter formulation as an aqueous dispersion. The resulting dough and batter can be baked in a conventional manner. This invention is particularly useful in the preparation of fat-free baked goods.

Abstract: Malic acid is removed from coffee to provide a coffee product which will evoke a decreased gastric acid response after ingestion. Malic acid is removed by contacting an aqueous coffee extract, which may be a green or brown extract, with an ion exchange resin capable of exchanging malic acid in the extract. Demalation of a ready-to-drink coffee brew may be effected substantially immediately after preparation of the brew in a home brewer or the like. A malic acid-lean extract can be used to extract malic acid from coffee solids to produce demalated coffee solids. Demalation is preferably accomplished without removing excessive amounts of chlorogenic acid. Coffee products in accordance with the invention are preferably decaffeinated.

Abstract: A method for preparing and storing a free-flowing, frozen alimentary dairy product includes the steps of preparing an alimentary composition for freezing and slowly dripping the composition into a freezing chamber. Next is rapidly freezing the dripping composition into small beads so as to minimize ice crystal formation. The method continues with the storing of the beads for extended periods of time at a temperature at least as low as -20.degree. F. This maintains the free-flowing characteristic. Consumption enjoyment of the beads is increased by bringing the beads up to a temperature above -20.degree. F., preferably within a range of -10.degree. to -20.degree. F., prior to serving.
Abstract: Novel fat mimetic compounds and their uses in food compositions are disclosed. These compounds comprise a backbone to which is attached one hydroxyl group acylated with a fatty acid, forming a pendant carboxy substituent (--O.sub.2 C--R', where R' is an aliphatic group having 1 to 30 carbons), and one carboxylic acid group esterified with a fatty alcohol, forming a pendant carboxylate substituent (--CO.sub.2 R', with R' as defined above).

Abstract: The batter starch is esterified to have a degree of substitution between 0.02 and 0.1, and a protein content greater than or equal to 1%. The starch is obtained from a starch bearing plant of the aedu homozygous genotype. Maize is the preferred source for the starch and the preferred protein source is gluten. The preferred esterification agent is acetic anhydride.
Abstract: A mixing apparatus for viscous emulsions, and more particularly a mixing apparatus incorporating a pinned mixing chamber cooperating with splined rotor for the blending and homogenizing of at least one further constituent and/or air with a base emulsion received from a mixer in order to impart a specified and intended consistency and texture to a product produced from the emulsion. Furthermore, there is also provided a method for producing the product formulated from the viscous emulsion by utilizing the mixing apparatus; and a resultant viscous flowable product of improved and specified consistency and texture, such as a mayonnaise, mayonnaise-type emulsion or salad dressing formulated through the mixing apparatus and method.
Abstract: A coating is prepared from a composition of fat, selected polyols, and emulsifier. The coating cooled in the normal enrobing process provides a coated product in which the coating resists the onset of blooming and resists melting at elevated temperatures, while still exhibiting desirable mouth feel and melting properties when the product is consumed. The coating includes a structured fat emulsion that is a polyol-in-fat emulsion which is stable and consistent enough to be distributed as a bulk fat component.
Abstract: A process for producing a novel cereal grain food product is disclosed. This novel food product is high in fiber and protein with a complex sugars coating that renders the product good-tasting and suitable for human consumption. This process involves the enzymatic conversion and removal of starch from the grain. The converted grain is separated from its liquor before the liquor is fermented to produce ethanol. The food product may be incorporated into baked goods, drinks, breakfast cereals and the like or eaten "as is.
Abstract: An unsaturated or low saturated frying oil which imparts the beefy or tallow flavor to foods that is characteristic of animal fats is disclosed. This oil is made by a process of esterifying glycerine with the unsaturated fraction of animal fat and then deodorizing or refining the resultant triglyceride. The unsaturated fraction of the animal fat contains minor fatty acids which produce this flavor on heating. Usually less than 5 mg of cholesterol/100 gm is in the oil.

Abstract: Very small particles of flavoring materials which are labile when subjected to both heat and an aqueous medium are coated with a coating material containing hydrogenated castor oil and having a melting point of from about 80.degree. to about 100.degree. C. The coating layer remains stable during the first minutes of the baking process, when the concentration of water in the dough or batter is relatively high. After several minutes, when most of the water in the dough or batter has evaporated and the temperature increases to about 100.degree. C., the coating layer or layers melt away. Within a few minutes thereafter, the active ingredient is exposed within the product. Alternatively, a leavening agent may be used wihtin the capsule which will release a gas at the predetermined temperature and cause rupture of the microencapsulation.

Abstract: Alcohol amine ester derivatives are disclosed as fat mimetic compounds for reduced calorie food compositions. These compounds have a nitrogen to which is attached at least one fatty acid ester or ester derivative via an alkylene bridge and at least one other fatty group which can be attached either as a second fatty acid ester via an alkylene bridge, or in amine or amide linkage. These compounds can be represented by the following formula: ##STR1## where m, n, q and r are integers, A is --(CH.sub.2).sub.2 --, --(CH.sub.2).sub.3 --, or --CH.sub.2 CH(CH.sub.3)--, and the R groups are, independently, C.sub.1 to C.sub.29 aliphatic, ester or ether groups. Preferred compounds are partially digestible and have m+q=3, or three R groups.
