  • Patent number: 9138007
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method to produce a glazing agent comprising the steps: disperse vegetable protein in water to obtain a vegetable protein solution of from 5 to 15 wt % of vegetable protein, optionally homogenize the vegetable protein solution, heat vegetable protein solution at a temperature of from 100 to 155° C. for 0.1 seconds to 60 minutes. The present invention is also directed to a glazing agent obtainable by the method and to a glazing agent comprising a solution of 5 to 15 wt % of vegetable protein with a viscosity of 35 mPa·s or lower. Furthermore the present invention is directed to the use of a vegetable protein solution as a glazing agent for baked goods.

  • Publication number: 20040265460
    Abstract: A process for producing fried starch-containing foodstuffs is described, comprising a thermal treatment resulting in gelatinization of starch, partial frying, cooling, optional freezing and optional finishing, wherein the foodstuff is subjected to a mechanical surface treatment between the thermal treatment and the partial frying. The mechanical treatment may consist of sanding, brushing, combined heat and pressure drop and other treatments. The foodstuff obtained has improved crispness, even after a holding time after finish frying.
