Novel dairy product compositions using highly refined cellulosic fiber ingredients

a cellulosic fiber and composition technology, applied in the field of dairy products with additives, can solve the problems of increasing the amount of saturated fat, patents do not give a method for drying the product, and do not disclose the combination of water, fiber and shortening directly together to make a reduced fat shortening, oil, margarine or butter

Problems solved by technology

However, within the newer compositions that have been provided for low trans shortenings there is an increase in the amount of saturated fats.
Therefore, while shortening suppliers are trying to offer a healthier product a product with lower the trans fat, there is a trade-off with the increased saturated fats that raises concerns with regard to the saturated fat ingredient.
Additionally, the patent does not give a method for drying the product nor enable using a dried and expanded PCC, whereas the product used in the present technology is in a dried form.
Dinand discloses the use of alkaline and / or acid conditions to make microfibrillated cellulose, and also does not disclose the combination of water, fiber and shortening directly together to make a reduced fat shortening, oil, margarine, or butter.
This work does not disclose the direct combination of water, fiber, and shortening together to make a reduced fat shortening, oil, margarine, or butter.
Weibel also does not give a method for drying fiber, which is a very significant and important step in the process of providing a highly refined cellulose fiber, and especially a highly refined cellulose fiber from citrus pulp and material with high parenchymal content.
Weibel does not disclose using a dried and expanded PCC

example 1

[0082] A reduced fat shortening which could be added to dairy-based products was made by adding Citri-Fi™ 200 FG citrus fiber coprocessed with guar gum from Fiberstar, Inc., water, and vegetable shortening. The water level used was both three and six times the weight of Citri-Fi™ and one half of the shortening was replaced with citrus fiber and water combination. Test 1 contained 100% vegetable shortening. Test 2 contained shortening at 50% and the balance being Citri-Fi™ 200 FG (citrus fiber, guar gum) and water at 6 times the weight of fiber. Test 3 contained shortening at 50% and the balance being Citri-Fi™ 200 FG (citrus fiber, guar gum) and water at 3 times the weight of fiber. All tests were conducted at 75 F with five replicates. The spreadability of the spreads were evaluated using a texture analyzer available from Texture Technologies with a spreadibility rig (TA-425 TTC) to measure the cohesive and adhesive forces of the spreads. The test results are shown in Table 1.

example 2

[0084] Another test was conducted by adding Citri-Fi™ 200 FG (citrus fiber, guar gum), water, to a low trans roll-in, commonly used in the production of Danish, available from Bunge. Once again various water levels were used to evaluate the differences of water levels but another variable of the amount of roll-in replaced was also evaluated. The amount of roll-in replaced was 33% and 50%. Once again the cohesive and adhesive forces were measured using a texture analyzer. Test 4 contained the low trans roll in at 100%. Test 5 contained the low trans roll in at 66% and the remaining being fiber and water at six times its weight. Test 6 contained the low trans roll at 50% and the remaining being fiber and water at 3 times the weight of fiber. Test 7 contained low trans roll in 50% and the remaining being fiber and water at 6 times the weight of fiber. The test results are shown in Table 2.

example 3

[0086] Another round of tests was conducted using a margarine roll in commonly used in the production of Danish. This time a straight water level of six times the weight of Citri-Fi™ 200 FG (citrus fiber, guar gum) was used and two levels of roll-in replacement were evaluated, namely, 50% and 33% replacement. The cohesive and adhesive forces were measured using the same texture analyzer and rigging as in examples one and two. Test 8 contained 100% margarine roll-in. Test 9 contained margarine roll-in at 66% and the balance being Citri-Fi™ 200 FG (citrus fiber, guar gum) and water at 6 times the weight of fiber. Test 10 contained margarine roll-in at 50% and the balance being Citri-Fi™ 200 FG (citrus fiber, guar gum) and water at 6 times the weight of fiber. The test results are shown in Table 3.

Abstract

A composition of matter is used as an ingredient in making dairy-containing products, especially cheeses, cheese spreads, cheese sauces, ice cream, ice milk, yogurt, sherbet, milk shakes, and the like. The product can replace shortenings and fats and oils, and can be used in these dairy products. A highly refined cellulosic materials (e.g., cellulose, modified celluloses, derivatized celluloses, hemicellulose, lignin, etc.) product can be prepared by generally moderate treatment and still provide properties that are equivalent to or improved upon the properties of the best highly refined cellulose products produced from more intense and environmentally unfriendly processes. Fruit or vegetable cells with an exclusively parenchymal cell wall structure can be treated with a generally mild process to form highly absorbent microfibers.
