Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for making bouillon or seasoning cubes, wherein at least part of the fat is powdered fat.
  • Bouillon cubes are well known articles in the western and non-western cooking.
  • bouillon cubes comprise solid, more or less dry ingredients such as one or more of salt, sugar, flavour enhancers (like e.g. monosodium glutamate MSG), herbs, spices, vegetable particulates, colourants and flavourants, next to e.g. 1-30% fat or oil.
  • Hard bouillon cubes can usually be deformed by squeezing between two fingers before they break up into lumpy crumbles, and usually leave a_ pasty/oily feel on the fingers.
  • Hard cubes tend to crumble into powder, lumps or small particulates upon squeezing between fingers. Crumbling between fingers is relevant for seasoning cubes, or for bouillon cubes used as seasoning cubes, as such cubes are usually crumbled between two fingers above food (e.g. in a cooking pot) or a dish.
  • Seasoning cubes can be prepared in a similar way as bouillon cubes and often contain similar ingredients, but can contain (depending upon use) more fat, e.g. 10-98%. As the fats used in bouillon cubes or seasoning cubes should not stain the packaging and/or melt upon storage, partially or fully hardened vegetable oils are frequently used as fat in such cubes, optionally together with liquid oil.
  • EP 594152 discloses a process for manufacturing granules comprising fat and particulate matter (e.g. flour), in which the fat is first melted and then mixed with the particulates matter and processed further.
  • fat and particulate matter e.g. flour
  • EP 780058 relates to processes for producing flowable powdered foodproducts.
  • fat is melted, when melted mixed with particulate ingredients, thus coating the particulate ingredients with melted fat.
  • the so-obtained mixture is reported to be flowable.
  • the introduction of this patent application refers to a process for producing stock cubes via a process which is referred to as the "hard” process.
  • Such "hard” process is reported to comprise the steps of melting and mixing solid fats, cool such melted fats on a roller to produce fat flakes. Such fat flakes are then mixed with the other ingredients of the stock products and the mixture pressed to cubes.
  • US 2002/0168450 discloses melting bodies comprising a filling and an outer wall.
  • the filling is reported to be pulverulent, liquid or semi-liquid.
  • EP 888723 discloses a process for preparing solid savoury seasoning articles which are prepared by melting fat at e.g. 50-60 0 C, followed by mixing the melted fat with the other ingredients, conditioning this mixture at 5-25°C, shaping, covering with a sticking agent followed by covering with visual elements.
  • a process for preparing bouillon or seasoning cubes has now been developed, the process c coommpprriissiinngg t thhee s stteeppss o off:: (a) mixing 2-99% of particulate ingredients comprising one or more of salt, flavour enhancers, spices, herbs, flavourants, sugar, yeast extract, or hydrolysed vegetable protein with 1- 98% of fat solid at 20 0 C in the form of a powdered fat,
  • the powdered fat has such a particle size that in a sieve analysis at least 80% by weight of the individual powdered fat particles passes a sieve with a mesh size of 2 mm, and wherein the powdered fat is prepared by one or more of spray-cooling, spray-chilling, spray- freezing, prilling, grinding, cryo-grinding, or milling.

  • the actual amount depends e.g. on the intended use.
  • the amount of fat is preferably 1-30%, more preferably 2-25%.
  • the amount of fat is preferably 10-99%, more preferably 20-70%.
  • Cubes e.g. for soups and sauces can have fat contents of 5-60%, preferably 10-50%. All percentages are percentages by weight of the total cube.

  • the powdered fat has preferably such a particle size that in a sieve analysis: at least 80% by weight of the individual fat powder-particles passes a sieve with a mesh size of 2 mm, and more preferably at least 80% by weight of the individual fat powder-particles passes a sieve with a mesh size of 1.5 mm, and even more preferably at least 80% by weight of the individual fat powder-particles passes a sieve with a mesh size of 1 mm, and most preferably at least 80% by weight of the individual fat powder-particles passes a sieve with a mesh size of 0.5 mm.
  • the powdered fat is not micronised fat or granulated micronised fat.
  • cubes prepared in this way are, under otherwise identical processing conditions (e.g. compression pressure, moisture, temperature) can be easier to crumble between fingers, can stay easier to crumble over time, and can yield non-lumpy matter upon crumbling.
  • crumbling was easier and more complete than cubes prepared in a process in which the solid fat is in a different physical format.
  • the powdered fat or fat in pwodered form which is prepared by spray-cooling, spray- chilling, spray freezing, prilling, grinding, cryo-g rind ing, or milling, as in use in the present invention, is for brevity referred to as "powdered fat".
  • the fat when working at temperatures less than 2O 0 C in the process according to the invention the fat (when in such small particulates as indicated) could be mixed with the other particulate ingredients in a fairly easy way using equipment as known in the art, e.g. using a ribbon, paddle or Nauta mixer. It can be prefe ⁇ ed, e.g. when working at higher temperatures than 20 0 C) that the fat in the process according to this invention is solid at 30 0 C, in powdered form. More preferred can be wherein the fat in the process according to this invention is solid at 40 0 C, in powdered form. Powdered form is herein to be understood as each individual particulate is solid, and (due to e.g. size of the particulates) the whole mass of fat is preferably free-flowing.
  • the fat as specified above is free flowing at temperatures below 20°C (prior to mixing with the other ingredients).
  • Such fat in particular specified by the small particles and the temperature at which they are solid: 20°C, preferably 30 0 C, more preferably 40 0 C

  • the free-flowing nature of the fat can enhance efficiency, which is an additional benefit of the process according to this invention.
  • Preferred fats for the application as set out herein are fully hardened vegetable fats. It is preferred to use powdered fat which comprises 10-100% fully hardened palm oil.
  • the mixing stage can last almost infinitively long, it is preferred for that mixing is sufficiently long to obtain a homogeneous mixture for all particulate ingredients.
  • Actual mixing times needed will depend e.g. on the type of mixer chosen, and the mixing times needed can be determined by the skilled person in the art, taking into account a minimum time of mixing needed. From a practical point of view preferred that the first mixing stage takes 10 seconds to 60 minutes, preferably 1 - 20 minutes (as long as a homogeneous mixture is obtained by the mixing operation).
