Abstract: A method for preparation of a composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion includes providing caramel, one or more phenolic compounds, vegetable oil and vinegar. The caramel is prepared from one or more monosaccharides and/or one or more disaccharides and water, and heated for a time period. The method includes mixing the caramel with one or more phenolic compounds with vegetable oil.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of producing an onion flavour compositions, said method comprising: providing onion juice concentrate having a dry matter content of 40-95 wt. %; providing onion component selected from fresh onion, dehydrated onion and combinations thereof; mixing the onion juice concentrate with the onion component in a weight ratio, calculated on a dry matter basis, of 100 parts by weight of dry matter from onion juice concentrate with 4 to 80 parts by weight of dry matter from onion component, to produce an onion mix having a dry matter content of 20-80 wt. %; subjecting the onion mix to a heat treatment at a temperature of at least 90° C. for at least 15 minutes; optionally mixing the heat treated onion mix with additional onion component and/or additional onion juice concentrate to produce an onion blend; drying the heat treated onion mix or the onion blend to produce a dried onion composite having a water content of less than 10 wt. %.

This method yields a shelf-stable onion flavour composition that has an intense flavour, and that can suitably be used to impart the flavour of sautéed onion to a wide variety of edible products.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition comprising vegetable oil, caramel and one or more phenolic compounds. The caramel and one or more phenolic compounds together prevent oxidation of the vegetable oil, such that the amount of EDTA in the composition can be reduced. The caramel has been heated such that it does not impart a dark colour to the composition. The invention also relates to a method to prepare the composition. Finally the invention relates to use of caramel and one or more phenolic compounds to decrease the oxidation of vegetable oil.

Abstract: An EDTA-free mayonnaise having excellent oil oxidation stability can be prepared by incorporating an effective amount of reduced grape juice in combination with a source of acetic acid and egg protein. The invention relates to a method of preparing an EDTA-free mayonnaise, said method comprising incorporating into the mayonnaise reduced grape juice in an amount providing 5-2,000 ?g gallic acid equivalents per milliliter of aqueous phase; a source of acetic acid in an amount providing 0.2-15% acetic acid by weight of the continuous aqueous phase; and egg protein in an amount of 0.02-4% by weight of the mayonnaise.
