USE OF A FAT PARTICLES IN THE PREPARATION OF FARINACEOUS PRODUCTS

摘要

The invention provides a method for the preparation of a farinaceous mixture by mixing together the following ingredients: 100 parts by weight of a farinaceous component selected from flour, cereals, starch and combinations thereof; 0.01-10 parts by weight of fat particles in the form of powder, said fat particles containing at least 65 wt.% of triglycerides; at least 30 parts by weight of one or more aqueous ingredients to provide 10-50 % water by weight of the farinaceous mixture; and 0-100 parts by weight of one or more other ingredients; wherein at least 50 vol.% of the fat particles has a diameter in the range of 1-50 μm. The application of very fine fat particles has unexpected beneficial effects on farinaceous products that are similar to those that can be obtained by adding emulsifiers. The fat powder can therefore be used as a partial or complete replacement for emulsifiers in farinaceous products such as, for example, bread. The invention further provides bakery ingredient mixes and uncooked farinaceous products containing the aforementioned fat particles.
