Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for the production of aerated water-in-oil emulsions containing sucrose fatty acid esters. The invention further relates to aerated water-in-oil emulsions containing sucrose fatty acid esters, and to use of the composition for shallow flying and baking of food products. The method comprises a step wherein an oil is mixed with sucrose fatty acid ester, followed by aeration of this mixture. The obtained foamed oil is mixed with a water-in-oil emulsion.
Claims12
A method for preparation of a composition in the form of an aerated water-in-oil emulsion, having an overrun ranging from 1% to 200%, comprising the steps:
- a) preparing a water-in-oil emulsion;
- b) providing a liquid mixture of a sucrose fatty acid ester having a HLB value ranging from 1 to 7 and an oil and aerating this mixture;
- and
- c) mixing the aerated mixture from step b) with the emulsion from step a) to provide the composition;
- wherein the composition comprises a volume of gas made up by gas bubbles.
