Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, it was observed that relatively high amounts of yeast extract in the granulation mixture caused clogging of the granulator due to extremely high resistance
Therefore, the content of yeast extract in conventional granulation mixtures has heretofore been limited to amounts below about 1% by weight

Abstract

A granular savoury food concentrate comprising from 10 to 65 wt.% of salt, from 1 to 20 wt.% of yeast extract and from 10 to 50 wt.% of flour, starch or a mixture thereof, wherein the granular food concentrate is not in a glassy state.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to granular savory food concentrates and food products comprising the same. It also relates to a method for preparing said granular savory food concentrate. It also relates to the use of said granular savory food concentrate for the preparation of a bouillon, soup, sauce or gravy or as a condiment. Background of the invention [0002] Many examples of savory granular food concentrates are known in the art for use as concentrates for preparing eg broths or soups. Granular savory food concentrates offer advantages over food concentrates in unit dosage form, such as cube or tablet form, due to the ease of dosing by the consumer from the pack. Two basic manufacturing methods for preparing granular savory food concentrates can be distinguished. In the first granulation method, fat is used as a binder for the granule components. This technique is preferred for the preparation of granules for a creamy consistency upon dilution in water. Howeve...
