Described are cheese compositions and methods of making cheese compositions, including methods of formulating cheese compositions, wherein the cheese compositions may include combinations of casein protein, fiber, non-casein protein, non-pregelatinized, modified starch, and a fat component.

The present invention relates to a method for producing a cheese-flavored substance, including adding a bacterial cell disrupted product obtained by disrupting lactic acid bacteria and an enzyme to a milk raw material to cause a reaction. The present invention can provide a method for producing a cheese-flavored substance which can safely and efficiently produce a cheese-flavored substance having a more natural cheese flavor at low-cost with simple operation.

This specification discloses a potato starch modified to have a narrow carboxylation and viscosity profile, and sulfite levels that are below detection levels by titration. The disclosed starch forms thermal-reversible gels having a fast gelling rate and that are useful in imitation cheese

Disclosed herein are cheese analogue compositions and the manufacturing processes in making the same with characteristics similar to that of natural cheeses. These products have properties such as melt, stretch, firmness, body and shredability similar to natural cheese products.

A method for producing a vegan food product particulate (X, Y) based on almond flour, as a recipe component or directly as a final food product, includes: a) providing partially de-oiled almond flour having between 5 and 20% by weight fat and between 43 and 57% by weight protein, b) providing water, c) producing a liquid mixture of the partially de-oiled almond flour and the water, the percentage by weight of the almond flour being between 1 and 40% by weight and of water being between 60 and 99% by weight, d) heating the liquid mixture to a temperature between 72 C. and 138 C. and obtaining a heated liquid, e) high-pressure homogenizing the heated liquid in a hot high-pressure homogenization step and obtaining a heated hot high-pressure homogenized liquid, f) cooling the heated hot high-pressure homogenized liquid.

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a method for producing a vegetable cheese-like food product which exhibits suitability for a shaping process, such as shredding, and which has natural cheese-like meltiness (melting and oil-release when heated) and a milky flavor similar to that of natural cheese. This vegetable cheese-like food product is obtained by adjusting, through organic acid fermentation and/or lactic acid fermentation, the pH of an emulsified oil or fat composition to 3.5-5.7, said composition including a specific soybean protein, an acid-treated starch, and an oil or fat in which the solid fat content (SFC) account for at least 45% at 10 C. and at least 20% at 20 C.

Disclosed are methods for separating non-soy plant materials to produce a fat-enriched fraction, a reduced-fat plant extract, reduced-fat plant protein compositions, a crude oil, plant gums, a degummed oil and a protein-fat sediment. Also disclosed are food products containing or prepared from the reduced-fat extracts, fat-enriched fraction, gums, oils, protein-fat sediments and reduced-fat protein compositions.
