19 results about "Salt substitute" patented technology

Salt substitutes are low-sodium table salt alternatives marketed to circumvent the risk of high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease associated with a high intake of sodium chloride while maintaining a similar taste. They usually contain mostly potassium chloride (also known as potassium salt), whose toxicity is approximately equal to that of table salt in a healthy person (the LD₅₀ is about 2.5 g/kg, or approximately 190 g for a person weighing 75 kg). Potassium lactate may also be used to reduce sodium levels in food products. It is commonly used in meat and poultry products. The recommended daily allowance of potassium is higher than that for sodium, yet a typical person consumes less potassium than sodium in a given day. Seaweed granules are also marketed as alternatives to salt.

Processing method of salt-substituting freshness-enhancing food raw material

The invention provides a processing method of a salt-replacing freshness-enhancing food raw material, and the food raw material is subjected to enzymolysis treatment to enhance the salty and delicious taste of the food. Compared with the prior art that most salt substitute products in the market are prepared after proteolysis, but protein is used as an enzymolysis substrate, food raw materials need to be extracted for multiple times, and the cost is high. According to the processing method, cheap and easily available raw materials (such as potato whole flour and the like) are used as base materials, small molecule peptides with delicate flavor characteristics are generated after enzymolysis, and the small molecule peptides, starch, dietary fibers and the like have a synergistic effect to obtain the salty and delicious salt substitute product, so that various diseases caused by excessive intake of sodium salt can be effectively avoided.

Flavoring composition for enhancing saltiness, and reduced-sodium seasonings and reduced-sodium foods and beverages manufactured using the same.

The present invention aims to provide a novel flavor composition that overcomes the risks or unpleasant off-flavors associated with existing salt substitutes and achieves enhanced saltiness at low cost and in a simple manner. [Solution] The present inventors have found that the saltiness enhancement ratio of a flavor composition based on a salt substitute containing chloride ions is proportional to the molar ratio of chloride ions to sodium ions in the presence of anions of organic acids or inorganic acids other than hydrochloric acid as saltiness enhancers. By focusing on this molar ratio, the intensity of the anion effect can be systematically adjusted while suppressing the sodium ion concentration in food and beverages. As a result, a composition that provides a saltiness intensity equivalent to or greater than that of salt can be efficiently optimized. The present invention provides a flavor composition that achieves saltiness enhancement at low cost and in a simple manner by optimizing the composition by the above method.

Use of complex coacervate salt in the preparation of reduced-salt mayonnaise and emulsion gels built therefrom

PendingCN122623821ASalty taste perceptionSalt substitute
The application belongs to the technical field of emulsion gels and salt-reduced mayonnaise, and particularly relates to application of a composite coacervate salt in preparation of salt-reduced mayonnaise and an emulsion gel constructed therefrom. The application constructs an emulsion gel by using a specific type of protein-polysaccharide-based composite coacervate salt. The gel not only has excellent oil embedding rate and physical stability, but also endows the system with significant salty taste perception characteristics. Based on the good stability and uneven distribution of salt, the emulsion gel can achieve the effect of significantly reducing salt without reducing saltiness, thereby meeting the salt reduction demand without sacrificing the sensory quality, and thus showing important application potential in the development of mayonnaise substitutes. Further, the composite coacervate salt is directly applied as a salt substitute in mayonnaise products, and a new type of mayonnaise can be constructed. Compared with traditional commercial mayonnaise, the new type of mayonnaise has more significant salty taste perception effect under the condition of a significant reduction in salt content, and thus shows broad application prospects.
