Abstract: The present invention is directed to a color stable meat product for storage in an egg product and the method of making such products by adding a color agent to a raw meat or by adding a color coating to a processed and/or cooked meat.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a stable meat product and method of making such a product by mixing a raw communicated meat with a salt mix and a carotenoid stabilizing composition to form a complex that after thermal processing allows the meat product to retain its interior and exterior color, flavor, and/or texture during storage in a food composition.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a food product containing a liquid egg product and a stable meat product that retains its color, flavor, and/or texture while being stored for an extended period of time in the characteristic altering environment of the liquid egg product and a method of making such a product. A meat composition is mixed with a salt mix and a carotenoid stabilizing composition to form a complex that after thermal processing allows the meat product to retain its interior and exterior color, flavor, and/or texture during storage in a liquid egg product.

Abstract: The present invention is a method for pasteurization or sterilization of liquid food products using high pressure in a continuous or semi-continuous flow. The invention involves pressurizing and depressurizing the liquid product for a sufficient duration of time to achieve a 2.5 log cycle reduction in microorganisms. The uniform application of high pressure to the liquid food product coupled with a controlled pH and temperature of the liquid food product, the setting and maintaining the pressurizing media temperature, and the rapid depressurization resulting in cellular disruption of the microorganisms within the liquid product inactivating or destroying the microorganisms, such as vegetative microorganisms, while preserving the functionality of the liquid product.

Abstract: A reduced egg product produced by supercritical fluid extraction comprising egg yolk from a whole egg that has a portion of undesired components, such as cholesterol and triglycerides (including saturated fats), selectively removed from the natural egg yolk while the beneficial components, such as phosphotipids, are selectively retained and while the consumer-desired flavor, texture, and/or functionality of the egg yolk is retained. A method for producing the reduced egg product comprises at least one of separating, drying, and extracting and optionally reconstituting. The continuous drying method produces dried egg yolk with a honeycomb type structure or small particle with low densities allowing for effective extraction and reconstitution. Furthermore, the reconstituting method is efficient and the pasteurizing method is capable of pasteurizing triglyceride and fat reduced egg yolk and triglyceride and fat reduced whole egg.
