Abstract: Provided are a liquid seasoning in which degradation of taste and flavor due to storage is suppressed, and a method of producing the same. The method of producing a liquid seasoning comprises the following steps (1), (2), and (3): (1) at a temperature of 80° C. or less, adding an aqueous solution of at least one selected from the group consisting of ascorbic acid, hydroxyacid, and salts thereof to a fat or oil and stirring the mixture; (2) bringing the fat or oil after the step (1) into contact with water vapor under reduced pressure; and (3) bringing the fat or oil obtained in the step (2) as an oil phase component into contact with an aqueous phase.

Abstract: An oil-in-water emulsion composition contains the following ingredients (A), (B) and (C): (A) an oil or fat having a diglyceride content of at least 50 wt %, in which at least 80 wt % of fatty acids constituting diglycerides are unsaturated fatty acids; (B) a mixture of polyglycerol fatty acid esters having an esterification degree of at least 80%, in which from 50 to 95 wt % of fatty acids constituting the polyglycerol fatty acid esters are C14-22 unsaturated fatty acids; and (C) yolk.

Abstract: The invention provides an acidic oil-in-water type emulsion composition which has an oil phase containing at least 20 % by weight of diacylglycerol and 0.5 to 5.0 % by weight of a crystallization inhibitor, and has excellent shelf stability at low temperatures though it contains diacylglycerol at a high concentration, also good in appearance and flavor and useful as a diet or food for improving lipid metabolism.

Abstract: The process for increasing the bulk of a food having a decreased bulk in the present invention comprises applying a means of internal vibration heating such as a microwave oven to a food having a decreased bulk, which has been prepared by subjecting a porous food comprising a cereal flour and water, such as breads, to a treatment such as compression, and has maintained the thus decreased bulk. The food of which the bulk has been increased by such a way has a bulk comparable to the one immediately after baking and exhibits excellent taste and feelings during eating.
