Abstract: The present invention concerns a process for preparing a dried soluble culinary foamer powder. The process includes the steps of preparing a concentrated culinary solution to provide a concentrated solution having a solids concentration above about 50% by weight; foaming the concentrated solution to an overrun of at least about 200% for providing a foamed solution; drying the foamed solution, preferably in a convection dryer, at atmospheric pressure and for a time that is sufficiently rapid to provide a dried foamed product, and comminuting the dried foamed product to soluble culinary foamer powder. The soluble culinary foamer powder is particular suitable in preparation of culinary products based on dry base powder such as dry sauce or sauce base which is brought to boiling when being prepared.
