Soups, sauces and dressings Print

In sauces & dressings, viscosity is not only important for organoleptic characteristics, it also affects processing and the shelf life properties of these products. The expected performance level of this kind of food formulations can be improved significantly by adding hydrocolloid-based thickening systems to the recipe.

When an easy spoonable product is desired for a dressing, you often use mayonnaise or low-oil containing alternatives (40 - 60% oil) as a base. These concentrated emulsions provide binding and flavoring benefits in items like potato salad or salmon salad. Pectacon provides among others the following products for this application:

Pectacon M-2209

gives good viscosity due to synergy, improved cling to the salad and syneresis control

Pectacon M-4924

A recent development of preactivated micro crystalline cellulose providing excellent mouthfeel and stability.

If you need a product, which is easily pourable to create enticing salads, you could choose for one of our Pectacon systems. They will not only give your product a better texture but also improve their look and mouthfeel. For clear dressings we have developed a stabilizer 

Pectacon M-4082

Provides viscosity control and a clear solution.

Pectacon M-4576
