Described herein are soluble tapioca flour compositions having desirable chemical properties and solubility and viscosity functionality for use Tapioca Flour in food products such as, beverage mix, infant food, a medicinal product, an emulsion, convenience foods, or a snack-based filling Such compositions can Alpha-amylase be used as a partial or complete replacement of maltodextrin and offer a more Hydrolysis Soluble Tapioca clean-label alternative.

A coated food substrate including a food substrate with a vegetable coating comprising vegetables which must not be either potato or corn, where the vegetables are in comminuted form and preferably have a particle size in the range of about 50 to 500 μm and where the comminuted vegetables may be applied as a coating which optionally may also include vegetable pieces in the range of about 0.5 to 2 mm in the largest cross-section.

A technique for processing ancient, heritage and modern wheat, grains, seeds, beans, legumes, tuber and root vegetables create baking flours suitable for human consumption. The initial ingredient is incubated to initiate germination and activate internal enzymes and nutrient production for useful enzymes, proteins and nutrients. Germination is terminated and the product wet-milled to fracture or shear the outer hull, exposing the inner grain. The product is mixed with water at varying temperatures during which amylase is added. The mixture is incubated to facilitate saccharification of starches into sugars by the amylase enzymes. The mixture is pasteurized to denature the amylases and the mash pressed and/or strained to separate the liquid and solids. The solid phase is dried and milled into higher fiber, high protein, low carbohydrate flour. The liquid is carbohydrate-rich with substantial fiber, protein and other nutrients dissolved in the solution.

Provided is a method for producing a noodle-like fried vegetable food product which is effectively prevented from damage such as cracking and breaking in a packaging step in the process of production of the noodle-like fried vegetable or during transportation and which, when reconstituted with hot water, has the texture of the original vegetable and can be eaten like noodles; and such a noodle-like fried vegetable food product. A method for producing a noodle-like fried vegetable food product according to one embodiment comprises forming a noodle-like vegetable by cutting a vegetable into a noodle-like shape; providing an oil frying container provided with a retainer; placing the noodle-like vegetable in the retainer of the oil frying container to form a mass of the noodle-like vegetable; and frying the noodle-like vegetable mass placed in the retainer with oil. The method further comprises compressing the noodle-like vegetable mass in the middle of the frying of the noodle-like vegetable mass with oil or immediately after the frying with oil.

Described herein are reconstituted soluble tapioca flour compositions having desirable chemical properties and solubility and viscosity functionality for use in food products such as, beverage mix, infant food, a medicinal product, an emulsion, convenience foods, or a snack-based filling. Such compositions can be used as a partial or complete replacement of maltodextrin and offer a more clean-label alternative.

A method for controlling foam comprising providing food composition comprising a foam control agent and a foodstuff, the foam control agent comprising a Mono glycidyl ether adduct or a Diglycidyl ether adduct. A composition useful for foam control comprising a mono glycidyl ether adduct, a diglycidyl ether adduct or combination thereof.
