Reconstitutable and water soluble Chia product and related method of manufacture

摘要

A method provides a reconstitutable and water soluble free flowing powder product that includes non-mucilaginous, non-oily free flowing chia grains having a size of between approximately 80 and 90 microns, a pH range of between 6.5 and 7.5, 3% average moisture, and a centipoise value of between approximately 1,000 and 1,500 cp which revert to a sub-micron size when suspended within an aqueous solution.

主权项

1. A method of preparing a water soluble chia composition, said method comprising:
providing chia grains; combining the chia grains with an aqueous carrier to create a mixture; agitating the mixture for a first period of time; processing the mixture through a first high shear device to reduce a particle size of the grains within the mixture to approximately 140 microns, and to remove a mucilaginous property of the grains; and processing the mixture through a second high shear device to further reduce the particle size of the grains within the mixture to a first sub-micron size.
