The purpose of the present report is to provide a mixture that includes a combination of rice flour, protein isolate, and/or almond, to be consumed, preferably, by patients with kidney disease.

Another purpose of this invention is a food product low in potassium, sodium and phosphates, that is obtained from the previously described mixture, which is useful to be consumed, preferably, by patients with kidney disease.

Another purpose of the invention is a milk substitute low in potassium, sodium and phosphates, obtained by the previously described mixture, which is useful to be consumed, preferably, by patients with kidney disease

An additional purpose of the invention is the usage of the mixture to prepare a food product as a milk substitution, low in potassium, sodium and phosphates, to be consumed preferably, by patients with kidney disease.

Also, another purpose of this invention is to provide a production process of a mixture that includes a combination of rice flour, protein isolate, and/or almonds, to prepare a food product as a milk substitution, low in potassium, sodium and phosphates, to be consumed preferably, by patients with kidney disease.

Natural Creamers for providing whitening and indulgent texture/mouthfeel of beverage and food products are provided. The creamers have long-term stability, high whitening capacity and a pleasant mouthfeel when added to beverage and food, while being free from artificial additives the creamers comprising plant oil and plant proteins, and being further characterized in that the creamers comprise baking soda and citrus fruit juice concentrate, wherein the citrus fruit juice concentrate comprises acid component comprising citric acid and malic acid.

The invention relates to a method of producing a food or beverage product, comprising the steps of: providing an ingredient composition comprising micellar caseins, whey protein and plant protein having a pH of 5.9-7.1, preferably 6.2-6.8, and having a concentration of 1 to 15 wt. % of total proteins, and wherein the composition has a micellar casein to whey protein ratio of, 90/10 to 60/40 and a micellar caseins and whey protein to plant protein ratio of 80/20 to 20/80, adding divalent cations to provide a concentration of 2.0-10 mM free divalent cations in the ingredient composition and subsequently heat treating the ingredient composition to form agglomerated proteins comprising micellar casein, whey protein and plant proteins, the agglomerates having a size of 5 to 50 microns as measured by D(4,3) mean diameter as measured by laser diffraction. The invention also relates to a product obtained by this method.

A method for producing a vegan food product particulate (X, Y) based on almond flour, as a recipe component or directly as a final food product, includes: a) providing partially de-oiled almond flour having between 5 and 20% by weight fat and between 43 and 57% by weight protein, b) providing water, c) producing a liquid mixture of the partially de-oiled almond flour and the water, the percentage by weight of the almond flour being between 1 and 40% by weight and of water being between 60 and 99% by weight, d) heating the liquid mixture to a temperature between 72 C. and 138 C. and obtaining a heated liquid, e) high-pressure homogenizing the heated liquid in a hot high-pressure homogenization step and obtaining a heated hot high-pressure homogenized liquid, f) cooling the heated hot high-pressure homogenized liquid.

An almond based dispersion including water; an almond butter base homogeneously dispersed in the water; and nisin derived from a non-dairy source of Lactococcus lactis that is homogeneously dissolved in the water. The dispersion has a shelf life of at least 28 days and up to 45 days when stored at 4 C., maintains a pH ranging from 6.1 to 7.0 while stored, and is satisfactory for human consumption.

Disclosed are methods for separating non-soy plant materials to produce a fat-enriched fraction, a reduced-fat plant extract, reduced-fat plant protein compositions, a crude oil, plant gums, a degummed oil and a protein-fat sediment. Also disclosed are food products containing or prepared from the reduced-fat extracts, fat-enriched fraction, gums, oils, protein-fat sediments and reduced-fat protein compositions.
