A process for preparing the article includes (a) providing dough and a roll-in composition, the roll-in composition containing a mixture of ethyl cellulose and a triacylglycerol; (b) disposing the roll-in composition on the dough so as to form a layered composition containing a layer of roll-in composition on a layer of dough; and (c) folding the layered composition on itself one or more than one time to form the article. Bake the article to form a baked layered pastry. | 01-28-2016 |
20160081358 | FOOD PRODUCT HAVING CRUNCHY TEXTURE - A food composition capable of maintaining a crunchy texture after freezing and reheating is disclosed. The food composition includes a crust or an outer casing having a dough-based matrix or a batter-based matrix with a thickness of about 2 to about 150 mm, and texture modifying particles dispersed throughout the matrix. The texture modifying particles generally comprise about 12 to about 40% by weight of the food composition and provide the food composition with a crunchy texture. The texture modifying particles may be crushed particles of food products, such as fried grain chips, fried vegetable chips, extruded cereals, extruded crackers, or combinations thereof. | 03-24-2016 |
20160100590 | DOUGH PRODUCTS COMPRISING ETHYCELLULOSE AND EXHIBITING REDUCED OIL MIGRATION - A cooked dough product, such as a biscuit (cookie), comprising from about 10 wt. % to about 45 wt. % of an oil and/or fat component, and from about 0.25 wt. % to about 20 wt. % of ethylcellulose, based on the weight of said product. Also provided is a method of making a cooked dough product comprising the steps of: preparing a dough containing a flour, water, from about 10 wt. % to about 45 wt. % of an oil and/or fat component, and from about 0.25 wt. % to about 20 wt. % of ethylcellulose, based on the weight of the ingredients excluding added water; and cooking the dough at a temperature of at least about 140° C. The ethylcellulose is effective to reduce oil migration from the cooked dough products. | 04-14-2016 |
20160106121 | Seitan Bacon Product - A process for making a simulated bacon product comprises a series of steps of mixing and processing ingredients, followed by shaping into loaves and cooking and slicing the cooked loaves, after which a topping sauce is added and slices are packed for distribution and sale. | 04-21-2016 |
20160106127 | CRUMB COATING FOR FOOD PRODUCTS - A crumb is manufactured by a process including adding an aqueous flour mixture into an extruder, partially extruding the aqueous mixture through the extruder, adding an aqueous gelling agent to the extruder at a point downstream of the start of the extrusion of the aqueous mixture through the extruder to form a resultant mixture of the aqueous mixture and the aqueous gelling agent in the extruder, and extruding the resultant mixture at a temperature greater than 100° C. to form an extrudate. The extrudate is allowed to expand, dried and milled to form the crumb, which has moisture-resistant properties particularly well-suited for use on frozen, microwavable food products. | 04-21-2016 |
