Nut-like food compositions comprising a dispersion of oil droplets in a continuous phase of film-former are provided with substantially improved moisture resistance characteristics by employing an irreversibly heat-coagulable film-former, limiting the quantity of permanent plasticizer present in the formulation to a quantity no greater than the amount of heat-coagulable film-former, and exposing the dispersion to conditions sufficient to heat-coagulate the film-former and render it substantially less water soluble. The simulated nutmeats of this invention are particularly suited for use in moist food products. |
