Disclosed is a method for the significant reduction, through to the complete prevention, of the in-situ formation of acrylamide during the thermal production process of foods for example during baking, frying or deep-frying. According to the invention, a cost effective combination of two or more approved food additives are used that suppress the formation of acrylamide and at the same time function efficiently as a baking raising agent. The method can be carried out without the use of costly enzymes or vitamins.

A novel substitute for sodium salt is described that comprises deactivated yeast and a salt compound selected from NaCl, a potassium salt, an ammonium salt, a magnesium salt and mixtures thereof. Also described are a composition comprising this new substitute and the use of this substitute in breadmaking and in prepared dishes.

Disclosed herein is a stabilized anhydrous monocalcium phosphate (MCPA) leavening composition comprising or consisting essentially of MCPA and a non-aluminum stabilizer. Whereas current commercial MCPA leavening compositions are stabilized by the addition of aluminum pyrophosphates, in certain aspects, the stabilized MCPA of this disclosure meets the European standard for allowable aluminum content in food products.
