Abstract
A rennet casein-based puffed product is prepared by coagulating casein with rennet and adjusting the pH to from 5.1 to 5.7, drying it under controlled conditions, extruding it at a dry matter content of from 81% to 85% by weight and subjecting it to subatmospheric pressure. The product may be consumed as such, may be organoleptically modified, or may serve as a texturing, flavoring, or decorative agent in the preparation of culinary and confectionery-chocolate products.
