Abstract:
Disclosed is a copolymer that includes a repeat unit containing a flavorant-containing pendant and a salt-containing repeating unit. In addition, a comestible, a smoking composition, a smoking article, a smokeless tobacco composition and a heatable or combustible product are provided which incorporate one or more of the flavorant-containing copolymer.
Abstract:
Provided herein is a method of preparing a palatability enhancer for a food composition comprising: a) combining an animal fat, one or more edible agents, an alkaline agent and water at a temperature of up to 45° C. to form a mixture, wherein the edible agents are selected from amino acids, sugars, vitamins, flavorants and flavor precursors, b) heating the mixture to a temperature of 96° C. to 99° C. for at least 35 minutes, and c) obtaining a palatability enhancer from the mixture, wherein the palatability enhancer comprises animal fat in an amount of at least about 80 wt %, and wherein the method is conducted under ambient pressure. Further provided is a method of enhancing the palatablity of a food composition and a method of reducing the odor of animal fat.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for producing a product having a fish flavour comprising preparing a composition comprising 1-20% w/w water and at least a polyunsaturated fatty acid, incubating the composition at less than 260° C. and at a reaction time sufficient for the fish flavour to develop, and optionally mixing the product with one or more other ingredients. The invention also relates to the product obtainable by the process of the invention and use of the same.
Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a body taste improver comprising a small amount of fat and oil, but significantly showing body taste, i.e., a body taste improver with a high titer. The high titer of the improver will reduce an amount of the fat and oil to be added and calorie as well, and will enable to use the body taste improver in foods that originally contain little fat and oil, such as Japanese-style clear soup and soybean soup. Thus, the present invention is related to a body taste improver comprising decomposed substances of a long-chain highly unsaturated fatty acid and/or an ester thereof, to a body taste improver comprising an extract of decomposed substances of a long-chain highly unsaturated fatty acid and/or an ester thereof, and to a food comprising said body taste improver.
Abstract:
A process for preparing a free alkylphenol flavor concentrate, including the steps of reacting an aqueous solution comprising a raw material containing bound alkylphenol conjugates with a mineral acid, and the use of free alkylphenols and free alkylphenol concentrates as flavor enhancers in a wide variety of food products.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a process for treating wood particles for use in flavoring aqueous liquids to mask undesirable taste components and to increase the extractability and reactivity of flavor enhancing components. Wood particles are contacted with a solution of aqueous ethanol, the solids separated and heated for at least fifteen minutes at temperatures up to 220° C. Also disclosed is a process for using such wood particles for treatment of aqueous liquids and aqueous liquids treated with such wood particles.
Abstract:
The production of flavoring compositions obtained by heating a spray or atomized droplets of a saturated or partially saturated vegetable oil to a temperature of at least 480.degree. C. in an oxygen starved atmosphere in a fast pyrolysis reactor within 1.0 second. The process is further characterized in that the vegetable oil and the pyrolysis products produced from the vegetable oil are maintained at over 480.degree. C. for a period of time less than one second, and rapidly quenched, within 0.1 second, and the resulting liquid extract is separated and collected. The flavor compositions are further characterized in that they contain a unique composition of flavor notes, and exhibit a full rich flavor complement. These flavor compositions are suitable for use as a food additive in order to enhance or provide food flavoring.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a method of reducing the organoleptic effect of undesirable aldehydic components in a triglyceride or derivative thereof by addition of a reaction product of an amine and an organoleptically acceptable aldehyde. The triglyceride may be a food or food component such as an edible fat or a surface active agent such as a detergent. The reaction product may be incorporated in the perfume or flavour to be added to the triglyceride or derivative thereof without distorting their organoleptic effect.
Abstract:
A process for preparing a fried bean flavor which comprises preparing a bean paste, hydrolysing the bean paste with a proteinase and a carbohydrase, and reacting the hydrolysed bean paste at an elevated temperature with an edible fat or oil and lecithin.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing a flavour concentrate, involving the steps of:(a) mildly oxidising triglyceride fat, and(b) hydrolysing the triglyceride fat to a degree of hydrolysis exceeding 10%.It was found that flavour concentrates of improved quality are obtained if prior to or simultaneously with the hydrolysis of triglyceride fat, said fat is mildly oxidised.
