Abstract
Abstract A process for the production of a flavoring product reminiscent of meat in taste, which comprises diluting a yeast autolysate with at least the same quantity by weight of water, precipitating substantially insoluble salts, especially alkaline-earth metal phosphates, by heating the diluted autolysate at a pH-value in the range from 7 to 8.5, separating solid fractions from the autolysate treated by heating so that only a solution is left, treating the residual solution obtained by steam distillation, concentrating the treated solution by evaporation to a dry matter content of from 75% to 85% by weight, mixing the concentrate obtained with at least one vegetable protein hydrolysate, a monosaccharide and a substance containing sulphur in sulphide form, and heating the mixture for 0.5 to 5 minutes to a temperature in the range from 100° C. to 200° C. to obtain a reaction product.

A process for the production of a flavouring product reminiscent of meat in taste, which comprises diluting a yeast autolysate with at least the same quantity by weight of water, precipitating substantially insoluble salts, which includes alkaline-earth metal phosphates, by heating the diluted autolysate at a pH-value in the range from about 7 to 8.5, separating solid fractions from the autolysate treated by heating so that only a solution is left, treating the residual solution obtained by steam distillation, concentrating the treated solution by evaporation to a dry matter content of from 75% to 85% by weight, mixing the concentrate obtained with at least one vegetable protein hydrolysate, a monosaccharide and a substance containing sulphur in sulphide form in a ratio of 60-80:15-30:1-3:1-3% by weight, and heating the mixture for 0.5 to 5 minutes to a temperature in the range from 100° C. to 200° C. to obtain a reaction product.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
32 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the reaction product is dried to a dry matter content of from 96 to 99.5% by weight, and the dry product obtained is ground.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
29 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the mixture is heated to a temperature of from 110° to 150° C. over a period of 1 to 3 minutes.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
22 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the yeast autolysate is diluted with 1.5 to 2 times its weight of water.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
29 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the diluted autolysate is heated for 8 to 15 minutes to a temperature in the range from 92° to 98° C.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
33 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the residual solution is treated countercurrently in a ratio of 1 part by weight of steam to 1 to 2 parts by weight of solution.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
29 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the residual solution is heated to a temperature of from 92° C. to 98° C. before being treated by steam distillation.
