A topical flavouring product of a solid flavouring dispersed in a non-aqueous continuous medium containing oleic acid and sodium oleate in the relative weight proportions of from 80:20-54:46. A method of applying to the surface of a comestible product a solid flavouring, comprising dispersion of the solid flavouring in a non-aqueous continuous medium in the presence of oleic acid and sodium oleate and its topical application to the product, the oleic acid and sodium oleate being present in the relative weight proportions of from 80:20-54:46.

The method results in a very even flavouring distribution over the surface of the product.

Provided is a fat or oil having a high diacylglycerol content and rich in -linolenic acid, in which crystallization at low temperature is suppressed, and which hardly causes white turbidity or deposition. Specifically, provided is a fat or oil composition, which satisfies the following (1) to (4): (1) a content of -linolenic acid in constituent fatty acids of a fat or oil is 40 mass % or more; (2) a total content of a saturated fatty acid having 16 carbon atoms and a saturated fatty acid having 18 carbon atoms in the constituent fatty acids of the fat or oil is 6 mass % or less, and a content of the saturated fatty acid having 18 carbon atoms in the constituent fatty acids of the fat or oil is less than 3 mass %; (3) a content mass ratio of the saturated fatty acid having 16 carbon atoms (P) to the saturated fatty acid having 18 carbon atoms (S) , [(P)/(S)], in the constituent fatty acids of the fat or oil is 0.1 or more and less than 3.5; and (4) a content of diacylglycerols is 25 mass % or more.

The invention provides for methods and foods with reduced or no chelating agents. The present invention also relates to methods for using high stability oils including high-stability high-oleic oils produced using genetically engineered microalgae. The oils can be used in multiple food-related applications including frying, spray-coating, and lubrication of equipment. The oils can also be blended with vegetable oils or interesterified with vegetable oils.

A film coating composition comprising a cellulosic polymer, an opacifying agent, and a fatty acid is disclosed herein. Also disclosed is a film coating composition comprising a cellulosic polymer, an opacifying agent, a plasticizing agent, and a polyol. The disclosed film coating compositions may be mixed with a solvent to produce a film coating suspension. The film coating suspension can be applied to a substrate, such as a nutritional supplement, pharmaceutical, tablet, capsule, softgel, granule, particle, food confectionary form, agricultural seed, and the like to form a film coating on the substrate. Methods of coating a substrate with the film coating suspensions are also provided.
