APPLICATION OF INEXPENSIVE TASTE ENHANCER AND SODIUM CONTENT REDUCTION REMEDY REPRESENTED BY DRIED DISTILLERY SLOP AND DISTILLERY SLOP EXTRACT (DDGS)

摘要

FIELD: food industry. ^ SUBSTANCE: present invention relates to application of distillery slop and distillery slop extracts as an flavouring agent or salty taste perception enhancer in food products compositions. The method for production of a flavoured food composition with usage of dried distillery slop involves grains fermentation and distillation to produce distillery slop containing grain remains and soluble substances, drying to produce dried distillery slop (DDGS), selecting particles of relatively lighter shade from the dried distillery slop, the particles having "L" value equal to at least 60 and "b" value equal to at least +40 as measured against L*a*b Hunter Instruments colour grade. The selected high quality distillery slop is added to the food product in an amount from nearly 0.1% to less than nearly 10% of the whole weight of the food composition. ^ EFFECT: one ensures an inexpensive alternative to sodium-containing and other taste additives; additionally, one creates an opportunity to reduce the total content of sodium in food products. ^ 6 cl, 5 ex
