Abstract:
1. Process for the preparation of an edible dispersion comprising a) oil and structuring agent and b) one or more of an aqueous phase and a solid phase, comprising forming the dispersion by mixing i) oil, ii) solid structuring agent particles having a microporous structure of submicron size particles and (iii) the aqueous phase and/or the solid phase, wherein the solid structuring agent particles were made using a micronisation process by preparing a homogeneous mixture of (A) structuring agent and (B) liquefied gas or supercritical gas, at a pressure of 5-40 MPa and expanding the mixture through an orifice, under such conditions that a spray jet was applied in which the structuring agent was solidified and micronised, wherein the homogeneous mixture was formed from a melt consisting of edible fat which was mixed with x) liquefied gas or y) supercritical gas.
