CONCENTRATED, CREAMY TO SOLID AND DRY COMPOSITIONS OF AN OIL-IN-WATER EMULSION, METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION THEREOF AND USE THEREOF FOR PRODUCING IMPROVED FOODS IN TERMS OF SENSORY ASPECTS AND NUTRITION PHYSIOLOGY
The invention relates to an oil-in-water emulsion, substantially comprising protein, polysaccharide and oil or fat having unique stabilizing properties, which is suited for use as a thickener, suspending agent, coating material and as an additive to food in the production of a plurality of products. Furthermore, foods are provided which have improved properties in terms of sensory aspects and nutrition physiology compared to conventionally produced products, and a method for the production thereof is provided. In addition, the emulsion and products produced according to the invention can be dried and subsequently rehydrated in order to obtain compositions that have substantially the same properties as the non-dried compositions.
