Examples are disclosed that relate to a food product and a method of manufacturing a food product. One disclosed example provides a food product including a foamed aquafaba-containing substrate network, a strengthening component configured to provide mechanical strength to the foamed aquafaba-containing substrate network, a polysaccharide-based viscosity-increasing component, and a starch.

A system and method for the continuous production of brown butter involves concentrating butter while retaining solids non-fat in the butter, and continuously transferring and heating the concentrated butter to cause the solids non-fat in the butter to react in a maillard reaction to form a brown butter product. The system may use one or more of a heating vessel, an evaporator and a reaction vessel to form the brown butter in the continuous process. A brown butter product derived from butter includes reacted solids non-fat particulates from a maillard reaction suspended by nascent fat crystals nucleated about the reacted solids non-fat particulates and by large fat crystal structures joined to the nascent fat crystals.

The present invention relates to a composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion, containing wheat flour and physically modified starch. The invention also relates to a method for preparation of the composition. The invention further relates to the use of a wheat flour and physically modified starch to reduce syneresis in an oil-in-water emulsion.

This document relates to food products containing highly conjugated heterocyclic rings complexed to an iron ion and one or more flavor precursors, and using such food products to modulate the flavor and/or aroma profile of other foods. The food products described herein can be prepared in various ways and can be formulated to be free of animal products.

The invention provides an oil-in-water emulsion comprising a mixture of legume protein isolates and a vegetable fat, as well as fermented food products prepared by fermentation of said emulsion. The mixture of legume protein isolates comprises a first legume protein isolate having a solubility of the proteins of at least 25% and a second legume protein isolate having a solubility of the proteins of less than 20%, wherein the second legume protein isolate constitutes in the range of 20 to 70 wt % of the total first and second legume protein isolates.

The fat and/or oil composition containing 3-hydroxybutyric acid, which comprises 3-hydroxybutyric acid and/or a salt of 3-hydroxybutyric acid, edible fat and/or oil, and a protein product, is a composition having improved water dispersibility.

Disclosed herein is a fat composition including at least 30% by weight of stearic acid (C18:0); and at least 45% by weight of saturated fatty acid (SAFA); and where the fat composition includes from 1.0% to 8.0% by weight of SSS triglycerides; and at most 10.0% by weight of UUU triglycerides and has a weight ratio of S2U triglycerides to SSS triglycerides from 6.0 to 20.0 and a weight ratio of S2O triglycerides to S2L triglycerides at most 30.0; where S is saturated fatty acid, U is unsaturated fatty acid, O is oleic acid and L is linoleic acid. Also disclosed herein is a fat blend including the fat composition as hardstock where the fat blend is further used in a water-in-oil emulsion product, such as margarine or spread.

Systems and methods describe improvements in the automated production of meat analogues. Ingredients are provided, including oil, water, binding agent(s), and one or more forms of protein to be separately and continuously conveyed through a facility. Concurrently to the ingredients being conveyed through the facility, a number of actions occur. The system emulsifies the oil, water, and binding agent(s) within an emulsifying machine to form a final emulsion. A hydration process is separately applied to at least one of the forms of protein. The system mixes and conveys the protein(s) with the final emulsion in a final mixer to form a final dough.
