METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF POWDERED PRODUCT OF GARDEN BEET Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC A23L1/212 A23L2/39 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: methods involves treatment of garden beet pulp, preliminarily milled into 1.5-2.0 mm particles with water acidified with citric acid so that its pH is 3.5-3.8 at a 95-100°C temperature during 60-90 minutes, its extraction with curd or cheese whey during 60-80 minutes at a 90-95°C temperature and under a 0.2-0.3 MPa pressure. The ratio of garden beet pulp, water, water acidified with citric acid and curd or cheese whey is 1:2:5÷1:2:6. The produced extract is mixed with the extract produced by way of treating preliminarily milled garden beet leaves mass with extract curd or cheese whey, the ratio being 1:7÷1:12, at a 65-70° temperature and under a 0.2-0.3 MPa pressure during 60-80 minutes. The extracts are mixed in a ratio of 80-90÷20-10, evaporated till dry substances content is 12-15% and dried till moisture content is 3-5%.

EFFECT: invention allows to obtain high quality product with good solubility, sorption and organoleptic properties.
