Heat treated pulse flour, pulse protein isolates obtained from heat treated pulse flour, food compositions containing such isolates, and methods for preparing heat treated pulse flours and pulse protein isolates are disclosed. The amount of volatile small molecule compounds present in the heat treated pulse flour are decreased or increased.

This specification discloses thermally inhibited waxy cassava starches and edible compositions made therefrom. In one aspect edible compositions have improved creaminess compared to prior art starches, independent of starch usage level and the viscosity provided by the starch. In an embodiment the edible composition comprises between 0.1% and 35.0% by weight. In various embodiments the thermally inhibited waxy cassava starch has a peak viscosity of between about 100, and 2000 Brabender units or between 500 and 1500 Brabender Units.

Improved thermally inhibited starch is disclosed and methods of making such starch are disclosed. In some embodiments a thermally inhibited starch has improved whiteness and flavor. In some embodiments a method for making a thermally inhibited starch includes providing adding a buffer and an acid to a starch to obtain a pH adjusted starch having an acidic pH and thermally inhibiting the pH adjusted starch. The technology further pertains to methods of making the thermally inhibited starch in batch, continuous, continuous-like process or combinations thereof.

A composition and method for supplementing food, nutrition, and diet systems with omega-6 to omega-3 balanced oils comprising a synergistic blend of at least two oils. The composition further comprises a synergistic blend of long-chain omega-3 fatty acids as a means to further increase the nutritional value. The composition provides an effective increase in therapeutic and pharmacological properties in nutrition, and retards the rate of oxidation thereof.
