The present invention relates to a concentrate food composition comprising water, salt and pectin for preparing a bouillon, a soup, a sauce, a gravy or a seasoned dish. The aim of the present invention is to provide a concentrate food composition in the form of a gel at room temperature and which is shape-stable at high-salt levels, while the increase in viscosity upon cooling of the diluted concentrate food composition is very low. It has been found that a concentrate food composition in the form of a stable gel can be obtained when the concentrate comprises water, sodium salt comminuted plant material, pectin and calcium salt, wherein part of said pectin is bound to said comminuted plant material, and part of said pectin is not bound to said comminuted plant material (free pectin) and said free pectin and said bound pectin are present in a ratio of from 0.2 to 200. |
