The trend clean label trend is here to stay. In fact, it is driving the industry to re-evaluate ingredients, formulations and processes to ensure that foods do not contain artificial ingredients, such as phosphates.
Phosphates are used in meat products for different functions: adjusting pH, changing ionic charges and also for sequestering metal ions, which improves water holding capacity, appearance and tenderness. In addition, they have buffering properties and bacteriostatic effects. However, using them will mean that your products cannot have a clean label.
Therefore, from TRADES we introduce you to LBI2190 and ToravitaTM 033, inactive yeasts that will allow you to replace phosphates in emulsified and processed meat products, since they are declared in the list of ingredients as inactive yeasts or natural flavorings.
Discover some of their great benefits:
With inactive doses of 0.5 - 0.7 %, they stabilize water and color in emulsified sausages, hams or other processed meats and even improve flavor, enhancing the perception of spices and salt.
Thus, LBI2190 and ToravitaTM 033 are 2 ideal ingredients for avoiding phosphate salts in your meat products, because they do not present significant changes in terms of structure, chewiness and color.
At TRADES, we are committed to the clean label trend. That's why we offer you innovative ingredients that will not only make your products more natural, but also more attractive to your consumers.
