Publication number: 20260096572Abstract: A plant based cheese is made of a protein such as cashew protein, liquid low saturated fat vegetable oil, cultures and modified food starches. The ingredients are combined to form an emulsion, which is heated and held at a selected temperature for a selected time such that starches gelatinize. Shear is applied to the emulsion. The emulsion is liquid at the selected temperature but when cooled, the emulsion becomes solid. In its solid state, when it is heated, the product melts, closely resembling certain dairy cheeses. The liquid oil has relatively low saturated fat.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 25, 2021Publication date: April 9, 2026Inventors: Gary Smith, Alexander Smith, Michael Schwarz
