Embodiment 1

[0132] Example 1 - Apple Flour

[0133] Wet apple pomace (80% w / w moisture) was mixed with 1% (w / w) food grade yeast extract in batches of 1-3 kg. The mixture was heat sterilized at 121° C. for 20 minutes at a pressure of 100 kPa (15 psi).

[0134] The matrix was allowed to cool to room temperature before aseptically adding 10% (w / w) fungal inoculum consisting of an actively growing culture of Pleurotus pulmonata.

[0135] The substrate and inoculum were mixed uniformly, and the inoculated substrate was incubated under sterile conditions at 25°C for 30 days, allowing air exchange between the culture and the environment, but maintaining maximum humidity.

[0136] After incubation, remove the fermented substrate from the incubator and dry the contents using a food dryer at 35 °C to achieve a moisture content below 14%.

[0137] The dry fermented material is then passed through a suitable mill to produce a fine flour.

[0138] The composition of the final product is given belo...

Embodiment 2

[0144] Example 2 - Carrot Flour

[0145] A 1-3 kg batch of carrot pomace was heat sterilized at 121° C. for 20 minutes at a pressure of 100 kPa (15 psi).

[0146] The matrix was allowed to cool to room temperature before aseptically adding 10% (w / w) fungal inoculum consisting of an actively growing culture of Pleurotus pulmonata.

[0147] The substrate and inoculum were mixed uniformly, and the inoculated substrate was incubated under sterile conditions at 25°C for 30 days, allowing air exchange between the culture and the environment, but maintaining maximum humidity.

[0148] After incubation, remove the fermented substrate from the incubator and dry the contents using a food dryer at 35 °C to achieve a moisture content below 14%.

[0149] The dry fermented material is then passed through a suitable mill to produce a fine flour.

Embodiment 3

[0155] Example 3 - Orange Flour

[0156] A 1-3 Kg batch of wet orange pomace was heat sterilized at 121° C. for 20 minutes at a pressure of 100 kPa (15 psi). The matrix was allowed to cool to room temperature before aseptically adding 10% (w / w) fungal inoculum consisting of an actively growing culture of Pleurotus pulmonata.

[0157] The substrate and inoculum were mixed uniformly, and the inoculated substrate was incubated under sterile conditions at 25°C for 30 days, allowing air exchange between the culture and the environment, but maintaining maximum humidity.

[0158] After incubation, remove the fermented substrate from the incubator and dry the contents using a food dryer at 35 °C to achieve a moisture content below 14%.

[0159] The dry fermented material is then passed through a suitable mill to produce a fine flour.

Abstract

The invention describes a food or flour composition derived from fungal fermentation of plant material, the flour composition having a total metabolizable carbohydrate level of between 0.1 - 50% by weight. Also described are processes for the manufacture of the food or flour compositions using fungal fermentation having a total metabolizable carbohydrate level of between 0.1 - 50% by weight.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to improved food products and methods of preparing improved food products. More specifically, the improved food is a low-calorie flour product produced by fermenting plant material with higher fungi. Background technique [0002] Most flours used in the food industry and in traditional cooking and baking methods come from a range of different plant materials, especially grains, that are ground into fine powders. [0003] Flour is traditionally prepared by grinding plant material such as wheat. Different parts of the wheat grain are used to make different types of flour. Some fruit and vegetable flours are known, but these are formed by simply drying a fruit or vegetable and then grinding or milling the dried fruit or vegetable into a flour. For example, apple, blueberry, grape or plum fiber manufactured by Marshall Ingredients (www.marshallingredients.com). Since many fruits and vegetables are high in simple sugars and...
