Abstract
Aerated fat-containing food products are prepared by mixing a fat with a refinable food additive so that the mixture contains a maximum of 30% by weight fat, refining the mixture to reduce the size of particles in the mixture to a maximum of 30 .mu.m, and then aerating the refined mixture.
Claims22
A process for preparing an aerated fat-containing food product comprising:
- mixing a fat with a fermented base which comprises a mix of a fermented acidified milk-based material and a fermented hydrolyzed amylaceous material in amounts to obtain a fat and fermented base mixture which contains a maximum of 30% by weight fat;
- refining the mixture to reduce a size of particles in the mixture to obtain a refined mixture wherein the particles have a maximum size of about 30 .mu.m;
- and
- aerating the refined mixture.
A process for preparing an aerated fat-containing food product comprising:
- mixing a fat with an edible fiber in amounts to obtain a mixture which contains a maximum of 30% by weight fat;
- refining the mixture to reduce a size of particles in the mixture to obtain a refined mixture wherein the particles have a maximum size of about 30 .mu.m;
- and
- aerating the refined mixture.
A food composition comprising an aerated mixture of a fat in an amount of from 30% to 95% by weight and a fermented base mix which comprises a fermented acidified milk-based material and a fermented hydrolyzed amylaceous material having a maximum particle size of 30 .mu.m, the composition having an apparent density of from 700 g/l to 900 g/l.
A food composition comprising an aerated mixture of a fat in an amount of from 30% to 95% by weight and an edible fiber having a maximum particle size of 30 .mu.m, the composition having an apparent density of from 700 g/l to 900 g/l.
