Emulsionen mit kontinuierlicher Wasserphase auf Basis von Polysacchariden

摘要

The invention concerns water-continuous emulsions having a fat content of 1-60 wt.%, and wherein the aqueous phase consists of a gelling polysaccharide capable of forming a gel while the shear modulus of the aqueous phase must fulfil specific requirements and while the gelling polysaccharides are present as microgels with a mean equivalent diameter of less than 100 mu m. The emulsion is spoonable, meaning that it fulfils specific requirements as to yield value, Bingham viscosity and failure to stress. The emulsions can be used in non-dairy creams, in dressings and mayonnaises.
