The product of addition of food quality, which is rich in sugar, and made up of the roots crushed and dried, such as the beets, and method of preparation

摘要

Foodstuff additives based on dewatered comminuted sugar-rich roots, especially sugar beet. Food grade additives consisting essentially of a product obtained by comminution of sugar-rich roots, particularly sugar beet, into particles having a virtually uniform composition and having a dry solids content of at least 90 %, the dry solids being comprised of (by wt.) saccharose (65-80 %), vegetable fibers (10-25 %), fatty acids (0.5-1.5 %), vegetable proteins (3-6 %) and mineral salts (1-3 %). At least 20 wt. % (preferably at least 30 wt. % and particularly at least 40 wt.%) of the saccharose present is in masked form and virtually non-extractable with Pb acetate solution.
