March 2009 Ingredient Round Up - Savory Flavors and Ingredients

Feb. 23, 2009
March's ingredient round-up focuses on savory flavors and ingredients.
Tastes like saltHigh levels of sodium consumption are associated with hypertension and cardiovascular ailments, but reducing sodium in food products is a major challenge for manufacturers as it negatively impacts palatability. A new product, Sub4salt, is capable of reducing sodium content in processed foods by up to 50 percent and does not compromise on taste. A 1:1 replacement for salt, it does not give rise to any side-effects such as bitter, metallic or broth-like tastes that are common in some substitution products using MSG, yeast extracts or potassium chloride. Moreover, it can be easily handled by manufacturing personnel as it does not cause dust formation nor have any complex mixing or calculation requirements.Jungbunzlauer International; Basel, Switzerland

Better beef
Patented Savory-Edge Enhancer for Beef delivers juicy, meaty and rare notes to any beef application. An allergen-free, natural flavor, it has the ability to offset warmed-over beef flavor, as well as “livery-grassy” notes found in lower grades of beef, by enhancing the desirable savory notes. The flavor is built on a multi-phase reaction process of oil, water, air and other enablers that gives it the ability to add multiple flavor dimensions. It can be used as a marinade with any cut of beef, as well as with frozen beef entrees and slow-cooked beef applications. The flavor is kosher certified and available in dry powder.

Accelerated browning
Easy-Brown has been developed to deliver roasted flavor, appealing caramel color and a variety of other benefits in meats, vegetables, and baked goods. In meat or poultry-based applications, it accelerates browning and provides a caramelized color and rich flavor. By reducing the cook times and temperatures, it also helps to improve cook yield. In vegetable applications, the systems help to increase freeze-thaw stability, reduce cook time and shrinkage as well as improve texture. In baked goods applications, they produce a consistent brown color with glossy sheen, prevent moisture migration and can be used to replace liquid egg washes.
