Abstract
A sauce composition is provided which is suitable for preparing firm textured starch-containing or vegetable products wherein said products are retorted in the sauce. The sauce composition in addition to the normal ingredients of spices, flavors, water, and other compounds contains by weight 0.1%-24% polysaccharides having a MW.sub.w in the range of about 3,600 and 250,000. These polysaccharides include starch hydrolysates, and other polysaccharides such as alginates and carboxymethyl cellulose. Further, by using the sauce of the present invention, processing times are reduced.
