Abstract
Abstract A method and formulation for preparing edible food flavoring cubes or pellets such as non-melting imitation cheeses for incorporation in dry food systems wherein the edible flavoring cubes or pellets have a wheat flour, soy flour, and buttermilk base. The method includes the preparation of a homogeneous mixture of the selected formulation, and thereafter passing the mixture through a product agitating zone which holds the material at elevated temperature and pressure over a rather substantial holding or retention time. The material is thereafter extruded from the agitating zone in the form of a continuously extruded product which is cut at intervals into the desired produce size and length.
