#New half-fat soft cheese solution Arla Foods Ingredients has developed a whey protein solution that enables dairies to produce low-fat soft ripened cheeses that taste as good as the full-fat versions.
Arla Foods Ingredients has developed a whey protein solution that enables dairies to produce low-fat soft ripened cheeses that taste as good as the full-fat versions.
Nutrilac Softcheese makes it possible to reduce fat in soft ripened cheese by 50 percent with no loss of creaminess.
It is supplied as a white powder that is simply added to the cheese milk prior to the pasteurisation stage.
in the sense that it very difficult to produce low-fat cheeses that make the grade in terms of taste and texture.
Taking some of the fat out of the cheese has a major impact on quality, principally because it makes the product matrix too hard.
This means the majority of low fat cheeses compare poorly with their full-fat counterparts. heese-makers have tried traditionally to address this with fat substitutes such as fibres,
however, behaves in cheese in a similar manner to fat, ensuring the product retains its creamy texture and taste.
Arla Foods Ingredients asked an independent laboratory to run tests to assess the quality of each cheese in terms of taste, texture and appearance.
In all cases, the Brie made with Nutrilac Softcheese outperformed the reference cheese. educing the level of fat and increasing the amount of whey protein in a soft ripened cheese can result in the product that has eluded cheese-makers until now:
a delicious low-fat cheese indistinguishable from its full-fat equivalent. At last, high-quality reduced fat soft ripened cheese is within reach
and so is the potential for increased sales in this underdeveloped sub-category of the dairy market,

The dishes were produced by Watson's ability to extract facts from millions of pages of literature and draw relationships between them.
This allows it to produce a database of recipes, dish types, cooking styles, human psychology,

Instead of dealing with dishes at an ingredient level Watson looks at the actual chemicals that control taste and how one food pairs with another.

#Douxmatok develops new technology that makes sugar twice as sweet, so you eat half as much A new technology in the food industry makes ordinary sugar twice as sweeto food tastes exactly the same with half the calories,
and without the controversy of artificial sweeteners. By coating tiny food safe particles with natural sugar like sucrose or glucose, the technology can trick the sweetness receptors on your tongue into thinking youe eating a full serving.
The startup behind the idea compares it to drug delivery in pharmaceuticals. rug delivery allows you to take less of an active material
But you still use sugar. Depending on the food, the technology cuts sugar by 25%to 55%.
%That means it also cheaper than a normal recipe. f the coated particle were the same sweetness as sugar,
it would be more expensive, obviously, he says. ut what we sell is sweetness equivalence.
If I twice as sweet as sugar you need only half as much in order to have the same sweet effect.
The sugar-carrying particle is already a commonly used food additive, so it doesn require new safety testing.
