Process for microwave browning uncooked baked goods foodstuffs

摘要

Described is a process for producing cooked browned baked goods including the steps of: (a) providing a particulate flowable flavoring powder which contains individually discretly encapsulated Maillard reaction reagents with the reaction reagents being at least one encapsulated amino acid and at least one encapsulated sugar; (b) providing an uncooked baked goods foodstuff, e.g., dough; (c) coating the composition of (a) onto the surface of the uncooked foodstuff; and (d) exposing the flavoring powder coated foodstuff surface to microwave radiation for a period of time to cause the foodstuff to be edible and to be browned whereby the resulting product is caused to be edible as a foodstuff and the baked goods is edibly browned. Optionally, the particulate flowable flavoring powder may be in the form of a slurry with a solvent composition which is capable of raising the dielectric constant of the foodstuff to be cooked whereby the foodstuff to be cooked is completely cooked and edibly browned for a period of time under 600 seconds.
