Abstract
A flavour composition is provided. The composition includes a characterizing citrus flavour and a taste modifying composition. The taste modifying composition includes at least two aliphatic amino acids; at least one additional amino acid selected from the group consisting of acidic, basic, aromatic, hydroxylic and mixtures thereof; at least one organic acid; at least one sugar and at least one mineral.
Claims15
A flavour composition comprising:
- a characterizing citrus flavour;
- and
- a taste modifying composition including at least two aliphatic amino acids;
- at least one additional amino acid selected from the group consisting of acidic, basic, aromatic, hydroxylic amino acids and mixtures thereof;
- at least one organic acid;
- at least one sugar and at least one mineral;
- wherein the flavour composition includes from about 0.01% to about 1% by weight of the characterizing citrus flavour;
- and
- wherein the flavour composition includes from about 0.01% to about 1% by weight of the taste modifying composition.
A savoury consumable comprising:
- a flavour composition including a characterizing citrus flavour;
- and a taste modifying composition including at least three aliphatic amino acids;
- at least two additional amino acids selected from the group consisting of acidic, basic, aromatic, hydroxylic amino acids and mixtures thereof;
- at least one organic acid;
- at least one sugar and at least one mineral;
- wherein the flavour composition includes from about 0.01% to about 1% by weight of the characterizing citrus flavour;
- and wherein the flavour composition includes from about 0.01% to about 1% by weight of the taste modifying composition.
A method of improving organoleptic properties of a savoury consumable, including taste, aroma, and/or impact, the method comprising:
- the sequential, separate or simultaneous admixture of a characterizing citrus flavour;
- and a taste modifying composition including at least two aliphatic amino acids;
- at least one additional amino acid selected from the group consisting of acidic, basic, aromatic, hydroxylic amino acids and mixtures thereof;
- at least one organic acid;
- at least one sugar and at least one mineral;
- wherein the admixture includes from about 0.01% to about 1% by weight of the characterizing citrus flavour;
- and wherein the admixture includes from about 0.01% to about 1% by weight of the taste modifying composition, and incorporating the admixture into a savoury consumable.
