The invention relates to a granular de-dusting material comprising 30-60 wt. % cold-swelling potato starch, 5-40 wt. % vegetable oil, 5-35 wt. % flour,
all weight percentages based on dry weight of the granular de-dusting material.

The invention further relates to a method for preparing a de-dusted enzyme product, comprising contacting a granular enzyme preparation, containing dust particles, with a granular dedusting material according to the invention, whereby the dust particles adhere to the granular de-dusting material, whereby the de-dusted enzyme product is obtained.

The invention further relates to a de-dusted enzyme product.

Dry flavor enhancing agent for a cereal product and particularly for baked bakery products including yeast extract and acid fermented flour, dry enhancing agent for cereal products and particularly for baked bakery products including this dry flavor enhancing agent and their use in the preparation of cereal products and particularly doughs and baked products.

Disclosed are fast-curing, inexpensive corn-gluten resin compositions, methods for making them, methods for forming them into solid articles. In some embodiments, the resin composition includes corn meal gluten and a non-toxic organic acid.

A method for improving the moisture retention of marinated meats and inhibiting growth of pathogenic and spoilage microorganisms is described. In various embodiments, vinegar is neutralized, concentrated, and blended with non-neutralized vinegar in appropriate proportions to achieve the desired water binding and antimicrobial effects.

Nutritious granular materials of fine particle sizes agglomerated within versatile micropellets are useful for inserting significant amounts of nutritious properties into snack foods. Expandable micropellet-containing formulations provide for introduction of fine particle ingredients such as proteins, minerals and other components or desirable nutrients into food processing lines not typically amenable to the fine particle sizes. Micropellet-containing formulations may consist entirely of micropellets, or may contain an expandable starch such as, for example, corn meal, sheeted doughs, and expanded collet products onto which the micropellets may be basted.
