Abstract: The present invention relates to a solid, particulate plant-protein-based structurant composition comprising, based on total dry matter, a) 50-95 wt. % plant derived protein, b) 5-10 wt. % xanthan gum, c) 1-30 wt. % glucono delta lactone-derived acidulant. The invention further relates to a food product comprising said structurant composition. The invention further relates to a method for the preparation of said structurant composition and to a process for preparing a food product using said structurant composition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a savoury concentrate comprising: a. at least 30 wt. %, by weight of the concentrate, of an oil phase comprising liquid oil; b. 3-30 wt. %, by weight of the concentrate, of an edible salt; c. 1-50 wt. %, by weight of the concentrate, of savoury taste giving ingredients; d. up to 10 wt. %, by weight of the concentrate, of water; and e. a fibrous preparation of delaminated cell wall material from plant tissue; wherein the fibrous preparation is dispersed in the oil phase in a concentration of 0.1 to 10 wt. %, by weight of the combined weight of the liquid oil and the fibrous preparation. The invention further relates to a method for the preparation of the savoury concentrate and to a process for preparing a ready-to-eat savoury product using the savoury concentrate.

Abstract: The invention relates to citrus fibers in dry form having a storage modulus (G?) of at least 50 Pa, said G? being measured on an aqueous medium containing an amount of 2 wt % citrus fibers dispersed therein under a low-shear stirring of less than 10000 rpm.
