SEASONING AND METHOD FOR SEASONING A FOOD PRODUCT WHILE REDUCING DIETARY SODIUM INTAKE

摘要

A method for seasoning food to reduce dietary sodium intakes includes seasoning the food product with sodium chloride having a mean distribution curve size of not more than approximately 20 microns. The amount of sodium chloride included in the seasoned food product to produce the desired flavor intensity takes into account that the sodium chloride exhibits a salt intensity that is greater than a salt intensity of an equal amount of sodium chloride having a mean distribution curve particle size greater than approximately 20 microns.
