Butter spreads include at least butter, canola oil, palm oil, cream, and buttermilk powder. The spreads are squeezable from a package and maintain their consistency over repeated package handling and repeated cycling between refrigeration and ambient temperatures.

The present invention is related to extracts rich in polar lipids obtained or obtainable from macroalgae, microalgae, photosynthetic bacteria and/or photosynthetic organ(s) and/or tissue(s) of a plant and combinations thereof as well as their uses as emulsifiers.

The present invention relates to an emulsified savoury food concentrate comprising by weight of the food concentrate: a. 15-50 wt. % water; b. 15-60 wt. % edible oil; c. 13-40 wt. % by dry weight of non-gelatinised starch; d. 50-350 mmol per 100 g of food concentrate of alkali-metal cation selected from Na.sup.+, K.sup.+ and combinations thereof; e. Yeast mannan in an amount of at least 0.6% by weight of the edible oil; and f. 0-10 wt. % of vegetable powders and/or vegetable extracts; wherein the w/w ratio of oil to water is at least 0.8:1 and wherein the w/w ratio of non-gelatinised starch by dry weight to water lies in the range of 0.35:1-2.1:1. The present invention further relates to a process of preparing the emulsified savoury food concentrate and to a method of preparing an edible savoury product using the emulsified savoury food concentrate.

Dairy products are produced by subjecting a starting dairy material to nanofiltration to remove monovalent ions to produce an ion-depleted dairy permeate; passing the ion-depleted dairy permeate through an ion exchange column and subsequently with a sodium-containing eluting solution to produce sodium phosphate and sodium citrate derived from the starting material; concentrating the sodium phosphate and sodium citrate; and combining the concentrated sodium phosphate and sodium citrate with dairy components. The dairy product contains an amount of the concentrated sodium phosphate and sodium citrate sufficient to cause fat in the dairy product to be emulsified and protein in the dairy product to be hydrated. In addition or alternatively, a dairy by-product stream may be subjected to ion exchange to remove calcium therefrom; concentrated, and combined with dairy materials naturally containing phosphate and citrate in order to adjust the citrate+phosphate-to-calcium ratio to reach an emulsified dairy product.

The present disclosure relates to rheology modified, low foaming aqueous antimicrobial compositions. The compositions are phase stable under acidic conditions, and do not need to be rinsed from the surface to which they are applied. The present disclosure further relates to methods of use thereof.

A stable liquid ingredient composition for liquid animal feed, which is stable from 0 to about 40° C. and also forms a stable dispersion in water. The composition includes oleyl lactylate and salts thereof (OL), and a further lactylate selected from lauroyl lactylate and salts thereof (LL), or a mixture of lauroyl lactylate and myristoyl lactylate and/or their salts (LL/ML blend). The weight ratio of the lactylate selected from LL or the LL/ML blend to OL in the stable liquid ingredient composition ranges from 1/99 to 60/40. The stable liquid ingredient composition may optionally include a diluent. The composition provides an alternative to solid feed ingredients or additives and can be applied as ingredient in liquid feed for animals such as in drinking water. Use of the stable liquid ingredient composition allows a reduction in the use of antibiotics and helps to maintain a good health of the animal.
