The aspects presented herein provide methods and compositions for the reduction or suppression of marine protein hydrolysate malodor by employing rice extract and/or a solid acid, preferably selected from malic acid, tartaric acid and citric acid.

A process for producing a filler from brewer's spent grain. The process comprises a) comminuting the brewer's spent grain, b) heating the brewer's spent grain, c) optionally, fermenting the brewer's spent grain, d) optionally, reducing the moisture content of the brewer's spent grain, and e) optionally, mixing the brewer's spent grain with at least one flavor-modifying food additive, such as a sugar substitute(s) and/or an aroma. The brewer's spent grains may be withdrawn from a mash, such as a beer or a barley mash. The comminuting of the brewer's spent grain in step a) may be a milling. Reduction of the moisture content may be effected mechanically, in a first substep d1), and thermally, in a second substep d2). Also disclosed are a filler obtained or obtainable by this process, a use of such a filler and a foodstuff comprising at least one such filler.

A method of heat-treatment of a product in a sealed container of a packaging material is described. The method includes placing the container in a treatment environment having a pressure (P) and a temperature (T), the pressure and the temperature having a ratio (P/T), and adjusting the temperature and/or pressure in the treatment environment to decrease the ratio over a duration in a time period. The time period starts at a time of cooking onset of the product and extends over a time of cooling onset at which time a temperature decrease is started, the time of cooking onset being preceded by a first time period of temperature ramping during which the temperature is increased. An apparatus for controlling heat-treatment of a product in a sealed container of a packaging material is also described.
