Claims24
A substitute for common salt, comprising at least one yeast extract, flour of aromatic nature and a low-sodium salt.
Use of a yeast extract and of a flour of aromatic nature to mask the off-flavours of low-sodium salt substitutes, in particular potassium chloride and/or ammonium chloride.
A method for masking in a food composition the off-flavours of low-sodium salts, in particular potassium chloride and/or ammonium chloride, comprising the addition of a yeast extract and of a flour of aromatic nature.
A method for reducing the amount of low-sodium salts in a food composition, comprising the preparation of a food composition containing a reduced amount of low-sodium salts and the addition of a yeast extract and of a flour of aromatic nature, this addition making it possible to compensate for the reduction in the amount of low-sodium salts, while at the same time maintaining the same salty taste.
A product or kit comprising a yeast extract and a flour of aromatic nature, and a composition comprising a low-sodium salt, for simultaneous use for masking the off-flavours of low-sodium salt and/or for reducing the amount of low-sodium salt, while at the same time maintaining the same salty taste.
