Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
137 words
A process for making a sauce bar convertible on mixing with aqueous liquid into an edible sauce which comprises: a. intimately mixing together 40 to 60 parts of melted, edible emulsified triglyceride fat having acyl radicals of preponderantly C 16 -C 18 chain length and having a Wiley melting point of about 100° to 125°F. and a minimum of 30% Solid Fat Index at 70°F., and 15 to 40 parts of farinaceous flour, and 5 to 45 parts of condiment solids having particle size not substantially greater than about 30 microns; b. tempering the resulting mixture in an agitated tempering zone until fat crystals are generated, forming a solid bar of the tempered mixture under conditions precluding complete remelting of said fat crystals; and c. cooling the resulting bar until it is dimensionally stable at room temperature.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
137 words

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said tempering is carried on at a temperature of about 100° to 110°F.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
24 words
The process of claim 2 wherein said tempered mixture is cast into a mold and cooled until it is dimensionally stable at room temperature.
