SAVOURY FLAVOUR COMPRISING 2-METHYLFURAN-3-THIOL AND/OR A DERIVATIVE AND METHYLENEDITHIOL AND/OR DERIVATIVE

摘要

The invention relates to foodstuffs having a savoury flavour, to a process for their preparation and to compositions having a savoury flavour which products comprise (hydrogenated) 2-methyl-3-furanthiol and/or a derivative thereof and methanedithiol and/or a derivative thereof. Under derivatives are here to be understood their esters like thioacetates, their thioethers like methyl sulfides their disulphides etc. The combination of the above identified two groups of sulphur compounds in ppb levels leads to a foodstuffs with powerful flavour reminiscent of beef broth.
