A source of protein is also mixed with the matrix after the flash-flow processing.
Claims36
A protein based food product, comprising:
- a matrix formed by subjecting a carrier material to flash-flow processing, wherein internal flow is provided thereby permitting transformation of structure without degradation of said carrier material,
- a waxy starch having an amylose content of not greater than about 20% mixed with said matrix, and
- a source of protein mixed with said matrix.
A protein based food product, comprising:
- a comestible matrix comprising a combination of a carrier material and a waxy starch having an amylose content of not greater than about 20%, prepared by subjecting a mixture of said carrier material and said waxy starch to flash-flow processing, wherein internal flow is provided thereby permitting a transformation of structure without degradation of said mixture and
- a source of protein mixed with said matrix.
The protein based food product of 16 wherein said amylose content is not greater than 17%.
