Emulsions stabilized by particles of an edible inorganic salt

摘要

The present invention relates to emulsions. In particular, it relates to an ennulsion comprising at least one aqueous phase and at least one lipid phase wherein the emulsion is stabilized by particles of an edible inorganic salt having a solubility in water of less than 1 g per 100 ml at 20 °C and wherein the particles have between 0.5 and 20 wt. % fatty acids coated or adsorbed onto their surface. Further aspects of the invention are a composition comprising the emulsion and a method of manufacturing a double emulsion.
