Disclosed here are methods of preparing a shelf stable (aseptic) product suitable for storage and transportation by using an ultra-high temperature process. The product may be derived from poultry or other animal sources and has high percentages of solids and proteins.

Provided herein is a method of sterilizing a seasoning sauce which includes performing sterilization at an ultra-high pressure. The method of sterilizing a seasoning sauce according to an embodiment has a more excellent sterilization effect on a seasoning sauce than that of an existing heat sterilization method and enhances taste and flavor of the seasoning sauce.

The present application relates to an instant rice and, more particularly, to an instant whole-grain rice, wherein even when the instant rice is prepared using raw ingredients which are that are susceptible to microbial contamination or difficult to sterilize, the microorganisms in the final instant rice are lower than a standard value, and thus a sufficient sterilization effect can be exhibited, and deterioration of rice quality, which may be caused due to strict sterilization, may not occur, and thus instant rice with excellent texture and taste quality can be provided.

A kit for connecting to a processing container a device for feeding a liquid or semi-liquid food product, including at least: an internally hollow pipe having a first end and a second end, wherein at least one between the first and the second end includes an enlarged, external terminal portion; a receiving element provided with a hole for receiving at least the enlarged, external terminal portion at one end of the pipe and with an abutment for stopping the end of the pipe inside the hole; means for pushing and locking the enlarged, external terminal portion at the end inside the receiving hole in order to allow locking the enlarged, external terminal portion against the abutment.

The present invention relates to beverage products, in particular a liquid natural plant-based creamer composition comprising: an edible nut; high-acyl gellan gum present in an amount ranging from 0.07 to 0.15 wt/wt %; acacia senegal gum present in an amount ranging from 0.30 to 1.50 wt/wt %; and buffer ranging from 0.1 to 0.4 wt/wt %.

A method and device to treat liquid to reduce the amount of microorganisms in the liquid to a preselected level and/or to mitigate the growth of microorganisms are disclosed. Utilizing the method or device, liquid product is sprayed into a cavity of a reactor using a nozzle that produces a flat spray to provide means for efficient heating and treatment of the liquid.

Functionality is disclosed herein for a pascalization process for food and beverage products, and possibly other materials. The process includes inputting an unprocessed product, pressurizing the unprocessed product to a first pressure to create a pressurized product, holding the pressurized product at the first pressure for a predetermined hold time and depressurizing the pressurized product to a second pressure to create a processed product. The second pressure is less than the first pressure. The process also includes outputting the processed product.
