granulated powder containing vegetable proteins and maltodextrins method for producing same and uses thereof”“granulated powder containing vegetable proteins and maltodextrins method for producing same and uses thereof
The present invention relates to a granulated powder that includes at least one protein of vegetable origin and at least one starch hydrolysate characterised in that it has an average volumetric D4 3 laser diameter of between 10 µm and 500 µm preferably between 50 µm and 350 µm and more preferably between 70 µm and 250 µm and as determined after drying at 130°C for 2 hours more than 80% of a dry material preferably more than 85% and more preferably more than 90%. The present invention also relates to a method for producing said granulated powder and to the use thereof in different industrial fields and more particularly in the agri-food field where it can be used as a functional agent such as an emulsifying bulking stabilising thickening and/or gelling agent in particular for partially or totally replacing certain animal proteins in the preparation of food products.
