Abstract
The objects of the invention are the provision of an improved food product of the type having a smooth, continuous aqueous phase with discrete pulp-simulating particles dispersed therein and to an improved process for preparing products of this type which could withstand the processing conditions of heat and shear. According to the present invention, products of this type are improved by employing as the pulp-simulating particles from about 1 to 10%, based upon the weight of the products, of bread crumbs consisting essentially of wheat flour, yeast and salt, the bread crumbs having a porous, striated and elongated shape and structure and a particle size wherein they are retained on a USS 60 mesh screen after passing a USS 16 mesh screen. These bread crumbs readily absorb moisture from the aqueous phase to provide soft yet coherent pulp-like particles which enhance the appeal of food products, such as barbeque sauces and simulated fruit sauces.
