GRANULAR CAVIAR ANALOGUE PREPARATION METHOD Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC A23L1/328 

FIELD: food production process.

SUBSTANCE: proposed food product fabrication method envisages preparation of the raw mixture moulded to produce the granules; granulation in an oil medium; separation of the granules generated from the oil; the granules solidification and colouration. The granules are treated with pectin and calcium acetate/lactate solution. The semi-product thus prepared is brined and cooked to produce the finished caviar analogue that is dispensed and packaged. The granule filler agent is fish hydrolysate with the unfermented protein residue non-separated which is produced of low value undersized fish by way of fermentation at a temperature of 55°C over electrochemically-activated water catholyte in an amount of 30-50% of the fish total weight. Fermentation proceeds till hydrolysis depth in terms of amino end-group nitrogen is 25-30%.

EFFECT: granular caviar analogue preparation.
