Provesta® 208 has an aged cheese flavour and is very low in
sodium and free of sulfites. Rich in natural flavour peptides, amino
acids, and other important flavour constituents, this yeast-based
product is a non-hygroscopic powder which forms a suspension in water
and oil based formulations. It is microwave stable in carbohydrate,
protein, fat and aqueous systems. Provesta® 208 is manufactured by a proprietary fermentation process using only natural ingredients.
Applications
Cheese products, reduced calorie mayonnaise, salad dressings, sauces,
soups, snacks, spice mixes, and baked products. Especially suited for
low fat and low sodium applications. Typical usage levels range from
0.25% to 1.5% on an as consumed basis.
Benefits
Provesta® 208 intensifies the cheese flavour and
contributes an aged cheese character to young cheeses and processed
cheese products. Cheese solids can be reduced while retaining the
distinctive cheese flavours. This product also increases salt
perception, and amplifies the flavours of onion, garlic and seasoning
ingredients. Heightened salt perception and accentuated flavours give
food formulations higher preference without high salt content or the
addition of consumer avoided flavour potentiators. Improved texture and
mouthfeel are evident in many food formulations.
