A composition with a health preserving effect, comprising 2.5-6.5 parts of Rhizoma Polygonati and 27.5-84.5 parts of a Rhizoma Polygonati-soaked solution mixture. The Rhizoma Polygonati-soaked solution mixture is a mixture of a baijiu soaking solution obtained by soaking Rhizoma Polygonati in baijiu and dregs of a decoction. Also provided are health preserving wine prepared from the composition and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises subjecting the Rhizoma Polygonati and the Rhizoma Polygonati-soaked solution mixture to mixed culture fermentation with proso millet. The health preserving wine is prepared by combining fermentation and soaking processes.

The present application relates generally to compositions and methods for adding an aroma to foods and consumable liquids. The methods utilize spraying essential oil compositions that can provide an aroma, without altering the taste of the food or liquid. By using a spray, the volume of the essential oils can be controlled, and thus the amount imparted to the food or consumable liquid.

This document relates to food products containing highly conjugated heterocyclic rings complexed to an iron ion and one or more flavor precursors, and using such food products to modulate the flavor and/or aroma profile of other foods. The food products described herein can be prepared in various ways and can be formulated to be free of animal products.

A method for purifying rebaudioside A, which method comprises: (a) providing a solution comprising rebaudioside A; (b) concentrating the said solution; and (c) crystallizing from the solution a high purity composition comprising rebaudioside A, thereby to purify rebaudioside A.

The invention relates to an adsorption system (10) for accumulating flavoring substances, comprising at least one working chamber (12) in which at least one sorption agent is provided as a stationary phase and can be subjected to a flavoring substance-containing fluid which can be conducted through the working chamber as a mobile phase for attaching flavoring substances, wherein the flavoring substance-containing fluid is a food item from the group of beer-containing staple and/or luxury food items, beer wort, hops, hop extract, malt water, malt beer, malt wort and brewery-specific ingredients and products and/or is obtained by means of a dealcoholizing device from an ethanol-containing food item from the group of beer-containing staple and/or luxury food items, wherein a ratio of an average cross-sectional thickness to the total length of the at least one working chamber (12) is at most 0.3. The invention also relates to a method for operating such an adsorption system (10), a flavoring substance concentrate and a deflavored permeate which can be and/or are obtained by means of such an adsorption system (10) and/or by means of such a method from a flavoring substance-containing fluid, as well as to a beer which can be or is obtained by mixing an at least partially dealcoholized and/or fermentation-halted beer having such a flavoring substance concentrate.

Disclosed are a method for producing a sweet wine with grape flavor, and a sweet wine with grape flavor produced according to the method. The method comprises: placing grapes and jiuqu in a fermenter; keeping a temperature of the fermenter at a fermentation temperature of 25 C. to 38 C., preferably 28 C. to 32 C., for 15 to 40 hours, preferably 18 to 24 hours; adding liquor or spirit into the fermenter, in which an alcohol content of the liquor or spirit is not lower than 15%; sealing the fermenter for 10 to 30 days, preferably 18 to 22 days; and filtering a fermented product in the fermenter to obtain the sweet wine with grape flavor.

A method and device for producing high quality alcohol beverages, including liquor, cordial, tincture, whiskey, cognac, brandy, vodka, rum, gin, wine, cocktail, etc., is based on the action of hydrodynamic cavitation treatment of components of alcohol beverages. The fluid flow moves at a high rate through a multi-stage blending hydrodynamic device and multi-stage cavitation device to generate hydrodynamic cavitation features in the fluid flow. The cavitation features generate changes in the velocity, pressure, temperature, chemical composition and physical properties of the liquid. Hydrodynamic cavitation processing provides effective blending of components and homogenization of alcoholic beverage, improves its organoleptic qualities.

Methods and compositions for the production of non-meat consumable products are described herein. A meat substitute is described which is constructed from a muscle analog, a fat analog, and a connective tissue analog.

Disclosed is the use of lignified stalks, of at least one extract of lignified stalks or of a composition containing same in a cosmetic composition, a food supplement, a nutritional product, a food or a beverage.

A method for preparing a fermented beverage having a modulated aromatic profile is provided as well as a fermented beverage produced thereby. The method includes preparing a fermentable mixture, such as juice, must, or wort and introducing ammonium sulphide into the fermentable mixture at a predetermined concentration. The fermentable mixture is then subjected to fermentation. A C6 aldehyde, C6 alcohol or a combination thereof may be added to the fermentable mixture in combination with ammonium sulphide to enhance its effect on the aromatic profile of the fermented beverage.
