METHOD FOR PRODUCING ASEPTICALLY-PACKAGED PUDDINGS

摘要

METHOD FOR PRODUCING ASEPTICALLY-PACKACED PUDDINGS Utilizing a combination of a low starch level, a high lauric acid-containing fat and from 0.12 to 0.2% sodium-stearoyl-2-lactylate a pudding is formulated which has a low on-line viscosity after cooking and sterilization and when subject to refrigerator storage develops a desirably high viscosity and a preferred texture and mouthfeel as compared to high starch level puddings. The cooked and sterilized pudding formulation of this invention is cooled in non-swept-surface heat exchangers after the cooking and sterilization step.
