Abstract: A beverage preparation method, including the following steps: grinding natural hazelnut kernels and water together in a bladed grinder at room temperature; removing sediments by filtering through a sieve with a mesh size of 0.5 mm to obtain a filtrate; cooking the filtrate in a pressurized cooking vessel at 110-150° C., for 1 second to 20 minutes; removing sediments formed after cooking by a centrifuge to obtain a sediment-free liquid. The beverage preparation method solves the stability problems by a heat treatment under pressure and centrifugation steps without using food additives and by the heat treatment under pressure with sugar addition to the product gives it a special flavour.

Abstract: The subject of this invention is the production process of whole olive powder with easily pourable properties and natural olive powder that is produced with this processes. Olive and olive oil are used by human beings with different receipts and forms of utilization for more than thousands years. But powdered form of olive production from whole olives was not encountered. When whole olives are ground to obtain a powder, the intracellular oil is released and turn ground olives into a paste. It is impossible to obtain a dry powdered olive product from whole and not deoiled olives that does not release oil during its shelf life, without aggregating and protecting its powdered form just by grinding. The powder obtained from whole olives is more rich from olive oil in vitamins, minerals, fiber, and phenolic substance and it is superior in olive oil than various powders obtained from olive oil wastes as it also contains purest olive oil that has not passed any extraction processes.

Abstract: The subject of this invention is the baby and infant food comprising whole olive fruit. Olive oil have an important role in Mediterranean diet. Olive oil helps to protect the cardiovascular system, to regulate immune system and to protect from cancer. Olive oil with all these properties is used in homemade and also industrially manufactured baby foods. However the only constituent that is useful for health is not the oil. Whole olives, other than oil is more rich in respect to vitamin, mineral, fiber and phenolic substances and contains pure oil not submitted to any extraction process. In spite of all these mentioned advantages of olives, olive oil traditionally is used in baby foods, but olives, mainly due to their bitterness. In the world requirements are increasing besides to their health effect, to less refined and minimally processed foods. For this purpose baby/infant foods having bitter/debittered olives are developed by solving the mentioned problem.
