The invention relates to a process for preparing a food ingredient suitable for use as a fat replacer, said process comprising the steps of: (a) forming an aqueous slurry of ground cereal, the slurry having a dry solids content of 10 to 50 weight percent; (b) enzymatically digesting the slurry at 60-95 °C with an .alpha.-amylase enzyme capable of being deactivated by temperatures below 100 °C, whereby the enzymatic digestion is effected without any significant protein degradation; and (c) thermally deactivating said .alpha.-amylase enzyme. The products of this process are useful as fat replacers in a wide variety of foods, including baked products, dairy products and meat products. Also disclosed is the use of certain products as fat replacers in food.

L'invention se rapporte à un procédé de préparation d'un ingrédient alimentaire destiné à être utilisé comme un produit de remplacement des graisses. Le procédé consiste (a) à former une pâte aqueuse de céréales moulues, la pâte présentant une concentration en matières sèches comprise entre 10 et 50 % en poids; (b) à dégrader la pâte à une température comprise entre 60 et 95~ à l'aide d'une enzyme alpha-amylase susceptible d'être inactivée à des températures inférieures à 100 ~C, la dégradation enzymatique étant effectuée sans dégradation protéinique importante; et (c) à inactiver thermiquement ladite enzyme alpha-amylase. Les produits selon l'invention sont destinés à être utilisés comme produits de remplacement des graisses dans toutes sortes d'aliments y compris les produits cuits au four, les produits laitiers et les produits à base de viande. L'invention concerne également l'utilisation de certains ingrédients alimentaires comme produits de remplacement des graisses.
