By combining lecithin, water and oil as the principal ingredients, a highly effective, uniform, widely dispersed, pan release spray product is achieved. Preferably, the lecithin is a dry, powdered lecithin. The lecithin is blended with the oil, water and/or alcohol to form a stable emulsion that exhibits superior pan release properties. Furthermore, the lecithin emulsions are easily formulated with a variety of blending agents to make flavorful salad dressings, marinades, and pet flavor enhancing products, as a non-aerosol, finger pump based product or as an aerosol product. By selecting an appropriate propellant, the product is non-flammable as well.
