Animal fats in baked goods
, /in Product news /by 3wmediaIngredients
Ingredients
As a leading supplier of animal fats, UNIMELT produces versatile fats of high quality which can be used in many different ways for a wide range of products. Animal fats in baked foods have been shown to lead to a very special taste experience and different fats can give different functionalities in end-product applications. Natural beef fat gives a special quality to rolls, stollens and puff pastries. Lard enhances the taste of doughnuts, for example, as a deep fat.The beloved German yeast snail pastries are just one of the baked goods made with goose fat. Analysis with beef fat in rolls shows that by adding beef fat instead of baking margarine or butter, a higher yield can be reached with a lower fat quantity than with butter and baking margarine respectively, while the rolls remain nice and crispy.

Animal fats
Cooking in animal fats is a traditional means of preparing many foods and beef dripping is key to various food applications. Beef dripping is an excellent frying fat with a very long frying life. Rancimate analysis results show that the frying performance of beef dripping is higher than of palm fat and even four times higher than of rapeseed oil. Beef dripping in baked foods improves the texture of rolls through a consistent pore structure as well as a good elasticity. A higher yield can be reached with a lower fat quantity than with butter and baking margarine, while rolls remain good and crispy. Even in instant soups and ready-made meals beef dripping is a superb ingredient for its high temperature resistance and its beef taste.

Analyser for measuring antioxidant levels in foods
, /in Product news /by 3wmediaMeasuring antioxidant levels plays an important role in a host of applications including characterisation of food quality, control of food processing technologies, improvement of product shelf life, measurement of the antioxidative efficiency of food additives, authenticity control and development of novel formulae. Antioxidants are an essential part of the bodys defence mechanism against cell damage by free radicals. The Photochem analyser provides a rapid and accurate way of measuring water-soluble and lipidsoluble antioxidants in a single system. The instrument uses the principle of photochemiluminescence, combining very fast photochemical radical generation with highly sensitive luminometric detection. Extremely easy to use, each measurement takes less than three minutes. There is no complex or time-consuming sample preparation and only a few microlitres of sample are needed. Sampling, measurement and rinse cycles are performed completely automatically. The anti-oxidative capacity of the sample is measured by comparison with a calibration curve.

Analyser for amino acids in food and feedstuffs
, /in Product news /by 3wmediaAnalyser for amino acids in food and feedstuffs. Analysing the amino acid composition of feedstuffs ensures that nutritionists provide a more precise feed formulation. A compact bench top analyser capable of rapidly analysing complex amino acids mixtures found in food and feedstuffs is available. The Biochrom 32 is a load and go system designed to run whole profiles of amino acids as well as short programmes enabling the user to rapidly analyse single amino acids. Lysine is a limiting amino acid in cereal grains and some vegetable protein sources. Improvement of animal performance through better amino acid balance, better carcass quality and prevention of lysine deficiency are some of the benefits associated with the right lysine content in the animal diet. Analysis of lysine using this analyser takes less than ten minutes and allows rapid adjustment of feedstuff formulations. The ergonomic instrument meets the requirements of the AOAC and the EU Commission directive 98/64/EC for the analysis of food and feedstuffs.

Alternative to lecithin for chocolate manufacturers
, /in Product news /by 3wmediaAlternative to lecithin
Chocolate manufacturers are currently experiencing increased market pressure due to high prices and shortage of raw materials such as IP soy lecithin. One consequence of an inability to source the necessary lecithin could be that the manufacturer has to increase the total fat content in the chocolate e.g. from 32 % to 36 %, a recipe adjustment that would mean substantial increases in costs. Providing a new solution for chocolate manufacturers to avoid the current shortage situation of IP soy lecithin and to enable them to decrease recipe costs, Ammonium Phosphatide Palsgaard AMP 4448 is an efficient alternative to lecithin in chocolate products. Significantly outperforming lecithin in terms of viscosity reduction in chocolate production, the new product does not have the well known lecithin problem of increased viscosity above 0.4 % dosage, thus opening up new recipe innovations. The use of AMP 4448 means that the chocolate manufacturer can save up to 4 % cocoa butter, yet still achieve the same flow properties in the chocolate.
