EXAMPLES
[0070] The invention is further described with reference to the following examples. It is to be appreciated that the examples do not in any way limit the invention.
Preparation of Fractionated Chicken Fat
[0071] An amount of 10 kg chicken fat was heated at 70 C. and kept at 1 hour to ensure it was completely melted (clear liquid was observed). The molten fat is subjected to crystallization in a pilot scale crystalliser (L-Frac from DeSmet Ballestra, Belgium) by controlled cooling steps from 70 C. to reach a temperature between 8 and 15 C. under gentle stirring (15-30 rpm) for 2 to 30 h, preferably for 5 to 20 h. Temperature profile of cooling steps are appropriately set in such a manner that a product to be obtained after the crystallization will be large suspended stearin particles in a olein slurry that can be transported by a pump or pressured air. Cooling was performed using a ramp profile with isothermal steps in between. Subsequently, the slurry was transferred to a membrane filter press and filtered and pressed with pressures up to 35 bar, preferably up to 30, more preferably up to 20 bar, for 1 to 6 h, preferably for 2 to 4 h. This process step delivers a fat as in comparison example 2.
[0072] After filtration and pressing, the recovered solid cake (stearin) was heated again at 80 C. and kept at 1 hour to ensure it was completely melted (clear liquid was observed). The molten fat is subjected to crystallization in a pilot scale crystalliser (L-Frac from DeSmet Ballestra, Belgium) by cooling from 80 C. to a temperature between 40 and 55 C., preferably between 45 and 50 C., under gentle stirring (15-30 rpm) for 2 to 30 h, preferably for 5 to 20 h. Temperature profile of cooling steps are appropriately set in such a manner that a product to be obtained after the crystallization will be large suspended stearin particles in a olein slurry that can be transported by a pump or pressured air. Cooling was performed using a ramp profile with isothermal steps in between. Subsequently, the slurry was transferred to a membrane filter press and filtered and pressed with pressures between up to 35 bar, preferably up to 30 bar, more preferably up to 20 bar for 1 to 6 h, preferably for 2 to 4 h. A fat is obtained as described within example 3-5, preferably example 5. Examples 3-4 can be also prepared by mixing a fat of example 5 with a fat of comparison example 2 (fat blend).
Preparation of Bouillon Powder
[0073] Melted fat or powdered fat can alternatively be used in bouillon powder preparation. When fat is introduced in melted form, all ingredients except fat were weighted in PG5002S balance (Mettler-Toledo, USA) and then mixed manually. Afterwards, fat that has been completely melted at 80 C. (clear and transparent in appearance) was added to powdered mixture. When fat is introduced in powdered form, all ingredients except fat were weighted in PG5002S balance and then mixed manually. After fat is introduced, the mixture was transferred to Thermomix Type 31-1 (Vorwerk Elektrowerke GmbH & Co. AG, Germany). Mixing using Thermomix was carried out in speed 3 for 30 s with propeller rotation was set to reverse direction. Nevertheless it is also possible to have a different order of mixing, for example to mix the crystalline ingredients with fat and then add further the other ingredients and mix further. One batch mixing was carried out for 500 g bouillon powder. The resulting powder was then stored in a sealed box for 24 h at room temperature prior to pressing.
Flow-Ability Analysis
[0074] Flow-ability was measured using a Schulze Ring Shear Tester RST-01.pc according to ASTM D6467. Flow-ability was presented as Flowability Index (FFC). Pre-shear normal stress was set to 2600 Pa and shear normal stress to 390, 1235, and 2080 Pa.
Pressing of Bouillon Tablet
[0075] Pressing of bouillon tablet was carried out with Flexitab Tablet Pressing equipment (Roltgen GmbH, Germany). Ten gram of bouillon powder was automatically fed to tableting mold (31 mm in length and 23 mm in width) and pressed with force of 13 kN.
Hardness Measurement of Bouillon Tablet
[0076] Hardness measurement was carried out using Texture Analyser TA-HDplus (Stable Micro System, UK) equipped with 250 kg load cell and P/75 compression platen. Texture Analyser test mode was set to Compression with pre-test speed of 1 mm/s, test speed of 0.5 mm/s, post-test speed of 10 mm/s, target mode of Distance, distance of 3 mm, halt time was set to No, way back of 10 mm, trigger type to Auto(Force), and trigger force of 50 gram. Bouillon tablet was placed centrally in vertical-landscape orientation. Hardness measurement was carried out in 10 replication.
Induction Period of Fat:
[0077] The induction period is defined as the period (measured in hours) during which no oxidative, volatile components are generated under certain defined conditions. The induction period is determined based on ISO method 6886:2006; Rancimat/Oxidative Stability Instrument; at 110.00.1 C. (2300.2 F.); 3.00.01 g oil, airflow: 10.0 I/h.
Examples 1-5
[0078] Different kind of fats have been tested.

[0079] Example 1 to 5 shows that the induction period, slip melting point and flow-ability of bouillon powder improves when fat with higher SFA content has been used. The induction period of the fat, slip melting point of the fat and the flow-ability of bouillon powder is much improved when a fat is introduced having a saturated fat content higher than 48 wt %. Additionally, these recipes shows no lumps formation for a bouillon powder, ensuring good dosing and therefore accuracy of tableting. The comparison examples 1 to 2 have a lower tablet hardness as the chicken fat of the invention having a total saturated fat content of 48 to 72 wt % (based on weight of total fat) and the fatty acids C16:0 in the range of 41 to 49 wt % (based on weight of total fat) and C18:0 in the range of 13 to 17 wt % (based on weight of total fat), which results in a tablet breakage of less than 9% during a wrapping process of the tablet. The wrapping of the tablet has been performed with a Theegarten wrapping machine.
[0080] A technical panel of 6 trained people evaluated the crumbliness of example 2-5. The tablet of example 2 has been perceived as too soft and all participants complained about oily/sticky fingers. Example 3-5 have good crumbliness properties and no complaints of the participants regarding oily fingers has been described.
Example 6: Measurement of Oiling Out from Bouillon Tablet
[0081] Oiling out was quantified by placing bouillon tablets horizontally on a Schleicher & Schuell 90 mm filter paper circle (Whatman, UK). Subsequently the samples were stored for 4 days in a Climate Chamber ICH110 (Memmert GmbH+Co. KG, Germay) set to relative humidity (RH) of 30%, fan speed of 40%, and temperatures of 23, 30, and 37 C.
[0082] After storage, image of the filter paper was acquired using DigiEye apparatus (Verifide, UK) equipped with Nikon D90 and Nikon 35 mm f/2 lens. DigiEye lighting was set to diffuse and lens aperture was set to f/8. Severity of oil staining (A.sub.staining) was quantified as the area in filter paper covered with oil compared to the contact area between filter paper and bouillon tablet:
with A.sub.filter the area of the filter paper (6.36.Math.10.sup.3 m.sup.2), A.sub.tablet the contact area between filter paper and bouillon tablet (7.13.Math.10.sup.4 m.sup.2), and % OS the percent area of the filter paper covered with the oil stain determined using Unisort feature in DigiEye software.

[0084] Example 1 using standard chicken fat shows severe oiling out. Single fractionation of chicken fat reduces the tendency of oil staining as shown for example 2. Nevertheless the oil staining is still not acceptable and is further improved with the fat of the invention as shown examples 3-5. During a shelf-life of 12 months there was no oil staining observed on the surface of the packaging material for examples 3 to 5.
Example 7: Dissolution Time in Hot Water
[0085] One piece of hard bouillon tablet (10 g) is dissolved in 500 ml water at a temperature of 85 C. and continuously stirred at 600 rpm with 60 mm magnetic stirrer. Measurement is carried out in 6 replication.
TABLE-US-00003 Average dissolution time (s) Example 1 25.3 Example 2 30.7 Example 3 31.0 Example 4 31.5 Example 5 31.5
[0086] The dissolution times are comparable. Only example 1 having the lowest tablet hardness is faster. Nevertheless an increase of SFA and hardness of the tablet does not increase the dissolution time as shown for example 2 to 5.
