- Food Ingredients Functions
- Product Families
- Product Information
- Carrageenan E407*
- Dextrose**
- Sodium Chloride
*** This product contains Non Hydrogenated sunflower oil used as processing aids
- Functionality
* As set up by JECFA (FAO/WHO) for INS407, commercial product may include salts (as Potassium Chloride E508) to
obtain specific gelling characteristics.
** Dextrose is a carrier used for standardization purpose. It has no functionality in the final productDispersion
This product is free-flowing and "dust-free" during weighing operations.- It presents an improved dispersion, but to limit lump formation it is recommended to:
- Premix the powder with the other dry ingredients,
- Disperse it in a non-solvent medium (oil, alcohol), and pour the preparation into the liquid while stirring. Continue stirring to obtain a complete dispersion.
Dissolution
The dissolution of the product depends on the medium and the process:- It is improved by heat-treatment (time, temperature), shear-stress (propeller, exchanger, homogenizer).
- A dissolution can be obtained from 80°C (176°F)
***Additional comment
Non-hydrogenated sunflower oil is used during the blending step to improve the flowability of the product during the packing step. Based on the definition set up in Regulation No 1333/2008/EC and applicable to the Regulation No1169/2011/EU,- It is not consumed as a food by itself;
- It is intentionally used to fulfill a certain technological purpose;
- Technically unavoidable traces are present in the final product (≤ 0.2%) however no technical effect is expected in the final product as well as in the final food product.
Consequently, non-hydrogenated sunflower oil can be considered as a processing aid and no labeling is required in the final food product (Reg. No 1169/2011/UE – Article 20d)
