The invention relates to a particulate meat seasoning composition comprising: a) 10-70 wt. % of farinaceous component comprising: 5-30% by weight of the farinaceous component of semolina component having a particle size of more than 100 m to 1,200 m, said semolina component being selected from wheat semolina, rice semolina, maize semolina, rye semolina, tapioca semolina and combinations thereof; 70-95% of by weight of the farinaceous component of flour component having a particle size of 10 m to 100 m, said flour component being selected from wheat flour, rice flour, maize flour, rye flour, tapioca flour and combinations thereof; b) 30-90 wt. % of one or more seasoning ingredients selected from sodium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium glutamate, spices, herbs, vegetables, fruit, sucrose and yeast extract, inosine 5-monophosphate, guanosine 5-monophosphate and protein hydrolysate;
wherein the farinaceous component has a multimodal particle size distribution with at least one maximum below 100 m and at least one maximum above 100 m.

This particulate meat seasoning composition that can suitably be applied onto meat products, such as steaks and bigger cuts of meat, before these meat products are cooked, e.g. by pan frying and/or roasting in the oven. The seasoning composition not only improves the flavour of the cooked meat product, but also improves the juiciness of the cooked, ready-to-eat meat product.

Pulses are used to produce low-fat, low-calorie, high viscosity food products having superior texture, preferably without need for added emulsifiers and stabilizers. Generally, the food products are made by hydrating pulses (seeds), milling or pulverizing the pulses before, during or after hydration, and then homogenizing the hydrated pulses with additional liquid at temperatures between 0 and 121 C. and pressures between 6.9 and 690 MPa. Additional liquid is advantageously added before or during homogenization to achieve a liquid:solid ratio of between 2:1 and 15:1, depending on the desired end products. The emulsions produced by these conditions preferably have low lipid content and high viscosity, because of the small hydrodynamic particle size (5-200 m). Flavorings can be added to the emulsions to make commercial products that can be packaged as mayonnaise, salad dressings, food spreads and dips, etc.
