A method for enhancing sauce flavor including steps of: collection, dilution, denaturation, enzymolysis, enzyme deactivation, centrifugation, secondary enzymolysis, deodorization, Maillard reaction, seasoning, dosing and flexible sterilization of a raw material, salted duck egg white. The by-product, salted duck egg white, not fully used in the food processing industry is recycled as a raw material, which not only saves the cost but also can protect the environment. Hydrolyzed animal protein is obtained through double-enzyme fractional hydrolysis. The degree of hydrolysis is high. The obtained hydrolyzed protein contains no trichloropropanol and is relatively safe, and flavourzyme decomposes bitter peptide, to make the hydrolysate not taste bitter. Some yeast, cooking wine and essence with unique flavor are chosen. Each ingredient is in a reasonable proportion, and the obtained product is delicious and of mellow flavor.

The invention relates to a novel use of a phospholipase A in the production of cake to improve at least one of the properties selected from the group consisting of: (i) batter viscosity, (ii) specific density, (iii) initial crumb softness, (iv) crumb pore homogeneity, (v) crumb pore diameter, (vi) crumb softness upon storage, (vii) shelf life and/or (viii) cake volume. The invention also relates to a novel use of phospholipase A in the production of cake to enable reduction of the amount of eggs and/or fat used in the recipe.

A basting cooking utensil that temporarily attaches over the top edge of a pan used to cook an egg. The utensil includes a compound curved handle with a basin attached or formed at its distal end configured to hold a small quantity of a hot oil or butter. Mounted or formed at the handle's mid-section is pan edge resting structure that engages the pan's top edge and temporarily holds the handle upright against the pan's side wall. The basin is rotated along its longitudinally axis so the first lateral edge is tilted downward and rests against the bottom surface of the pan when the handle is aligned vertically and tilted slightly laterally over the side of the pan. When the handle is held vertically, the opposite second lateral edge is elevated and tilted upward and easily scoop hot oil or butter from the pan.

The present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a chylomicron and a carotenoid. The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a micelle and a carotenoid, suspended in an aqueous solution and suitable for intravenous administration. The bioavailability of the carotenoid of the pharmaceutical composition is higher relative to the bioavailability of free carotenoid.

Disclosed is a composition comprising MZ for use as a dietary supplement or food additive for oral consumption for improving the visual performance of a human subject.

Methods and apparatuses for mixing food are disclosed. In an embodiment, a mixing device includes a housing including a cavity configured to hold an item and at least one cord attached to the housing. The at least one cord is configured to cause the housing to rotate when the at least one cord is pulled in a direction away from the housing. In another embodiment, a method of mixing includes placing an item inside of a housing, rotating the housing in a first direction to create tension, and releasing the tension so that the housing rotates in a second direction and mixes the item.
