A dry mix which contains an emulsification system including a combination of Polysorbate 60 and dextrin can be used to produce a creamy cheese and stable fluid emulsion by hand shaking the dry mix with a low aqueous phase and an oil phase. The amount of shaking required to produce a stable oil-in-water emulsion is much reduced as compared to other emulsification systems.

Emulsification system for creamy cheese food products

A dry mix and simplified method for preparing a reduced oil salad dressing are disclosed. Full oil texture and mouthfeel are imparted to the dressing by a combination of low oil content, an instant, waxy maize starch, xanthan gum and guar gum. The salad dressing containing from about 10 to about 30%, by volume of oil, is made by simple hand shaking.

Dry mix for low-oil salad dressing

A dry mix which contains an emulsification system including a combination of Polysorbate 60, xanthan gum and lecithin can be used to produce a creamy and stable fluid emulsion by hand shaking the dry mix with an aqueous phase and an oil phase. The amount of shaking required to produce a stable oil-in-water emulsion is much reduced as compared to other emulsification systems. The emulsification system of this invention has broad applicability for producing comestibles having a creamy texture and mouthfeel.
