Description:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
       [0001]    The present invention is related to the food field. Specifically, the present invention is related with a novel product based on a homogeneous mixture of doughy consistency for seasoning foods exhibiting high stability, extended life span improved organoleptical properties even the components are 100% natural, organic or non-organic, and its refrigeration is not required before to be opened, which makes a high desirable product to the consumer over the seasoning products commercially available. 
       BACKGROUNDS OF THE INVENTION 
       [0002]    In the state of the art, it is well known the existence of products for seasoning foods which are used by the consumer for providing taste to the foods or to make them more attractive. Indeed, since ancient times, condiments and/or spices had been used in their natural state for these purposes by humanity. Nevertheless, in recent times, consumers require a seasoned product ready to serve, without the needing to use fruits, condiments or herbs in its natural state which may be a prolonged or undesirable process for seasoning foods. Since a few decades ago, consumers have diverse seasoning products ready to serve which are made from products based on fruits, spices or herbs exhibiting organoleptical properties very pleasant to the palate. However, in many times, such products are rejected due to the fact that they contain a great amount of artificial additives or artificial excipients. It is well known by those experts in foods that those products containing natural components are of difficult handling in the industry and, thus, they require auxiliary elements that allow the processing of said natural components. These artificial additives often significantly reduce the seasoning properties of the product and, frequently, they result harmful for the consumer&#39;s health. Therefore, although seasoning products are available ready to serve, the modern consumer has the tendency to reject them due to the presence of artificial additives and the product does no exhibit desirable organoleptical properties. 
         [0003]    In the state of the art exists several documents related with seasoning products and process for preparing thereof. For instance, there are edible compositions with improved stabilities including spices or condiments such as onion, garlic, among others, for seasoning foods. In the same manner, many food concentrates or supplementary are available based on natural components. Nevertheless, those skilled in the art, also know that said products, even are labeled as 100% natural products, contain significant amount of additives and artificial excipients, which are components greatly rejected by the consumer. In addition, such products based on natural ingredients exhibit low stability or short life span and they require refrigeration before being opened, which is not practical for its production in the industry and marketing. Accordingly, to prepare a seasoning product of doughy and homogeneous consistency, based on 100% natural, organic, or non-organic ingredients, is for the manufacturer a colossal work, due to the high difficult degree in the handling and processing the natural ingredients at industrial level. On the other hand, the traditional process for preparing conventional seasoning products is laborious and highly expensive, undesirable for the manufacturer. 
         [0004]    Accordingly, it is clear that in the state of the art exists the urgent needing for novel seasoning products that overcome the disadvantages of those products commercially available, as discussed above. Consumers require a seasoning product based on 100% natural, organic, or non-organic ingredients, without artificial additives, of good appearance, highly desirable to the palate during its use, with improved stability, prolonged life span and which refrigeration is not required before being opened.

       Material Raws 
       [0049]    The following correspond to some general aspects of the raw material used for preparing a garlic doughy homogeneous product, as those of the present invention: 
       White Garlic Cloves 
       [0050]    Fresh  Allium sativum  bulbs, insect and fungus-free; enhanced sulphidrous flavor; and garlic characteristic odor and color. 
       Salt: 
       [0051]    Table salt for human consumption (Sodium Chloride “NaCl”) is a white crystalline solid, hygroscopic, highly soluble in water. It is produced from evaporating and crystallizing natural salt sources, or by sun evaporating marine water. 
       Powdered Dehydrated Garlic 
       [0052]    Product obtained from dehydrating and milling mature and clean fruits of  Allium sativum.    
       Natural Starch: 
       [0053]    Corn starch produced by means of the humid milling process; chemically is a carbohydrate of food degree, free of toxic and harmful substances. Nevertheless, starch from any vegetal variety may be used 
       Lactic Acid: 
       [0054]    It is used as a pH buffer, bacteriocidal agent, acidulator and food preservative. Its dosing depends on the product to be used. It is produced by means of sugar fermentations. 
       Acetic Acid: 
       [0055]    It is a corrosive, colorless liquid with odor characteristics and strongly acid taste. It is entirely water soluble, alcohol, ether and benzene. It is produced by aerobic fermentation of ethyl alcohol, by using  Acetobacter  Sp, and then it is filtered and concentrated by distillation. The biotechnological process makes the final product, acetic acid, to be a highly pure natural one. 
       Xanthan Gum: 
       [0056]    It is a powder produced by fermenting carbohydrates by using  Xanthomonas campestris  bacteria, suitable for its use in foods and food preparations as stabilizing agent, thickener or emulsifying agent. 
       Garlic Essential Oil: 
       [0057]    Product obtained by dispersing the oily resin of garlic in an aqueous media. 
       Carrageenan: 
       [0058]    It is a natural hydrocolloid, extracted from several Rhodophyceae algae types. The chemical structure depends on the species used and the conditions of the process. Due to its molecular charge, carrageenan can be extracted and refined in different ways for obtaining different products. It is used as stabilizer, thickener or gelling agent in a variety of applications, mainly in the food industry; providing thus an optimal a specific texture. 
         [0059]    Acetic and lactic acids from 100% natural source, are used in the suitable proportion, allowing the products not to be affected in their sensorial properties; and they performs a microbial protection effect due its low pH, since pastes originally have a pH of approximately 5.0, and with the addition of acetic acid (0.4%-0.7%) and lactic acid (0.5%-0.9%), life span may be extended up to one year or more, without showing microbiological, physicochemical and sensorial changes. Thus, when final pH values are obtained lower than 4.6, the combination of acetic acid and lactic acid inhibits the microbial growth in normal conditions of storing. 
         [0060]    In order to determine the above percentages, tests they were carried out at different concentrations with each acid, and by means of stability tests in a chamber at 35° C. and 55° C., with relative humidity greater than 75% during 90 days: according with the results obtained it shows that the doughy products of the present invention ensures a life span of one year, as it is shown by stability data illustrated below.

       Process for Preparing Doughy Garlic 
       [0077]    The following is a brief description of the process for preparing a garlic product as the present invention, from which a scheme chart is shown:
       1. RECEPTION OF RAW MATERIAL, WEIGHTING AND WASHING: In this stage of the process, the material raw corresponding to white garlic fruit with odor and flavor characteristic as mature fruit, soil cleaned, dried peels, without root, green stem, bruises or misuses, fungus, dark colors, total absence from arthropods or any other pest, is received. These fruits are weighted and washed.   2. WEIGHTING MICRO INGREDIENTS: In this stage, micro ingredients are weighted and verified in order to schedule a production batch against the standard formulation. The condition of the raw material as well as the package, presentation, labeling, validity of the expiring date, total absence of odor, color and inappropriate material of the product must be checked.   3. SCALDING: this step is performed for some fresh fruits in which a thermal treatment is carried out with steam and water, in order to inactivate enzymes, fixing the color and decrease the microbial charge. The temperature of the scalding process should be ranging between 80° C. and 90° C. during 12 and 18 minutes (equipment used: opened scalder). This technique is used for fruits such as garlic, onion and cayenne pepper.   4. SKINNING: this step is used for some fresh fruits in which the peel is (cellulose portion and fiber) from garlic and the pulp is extracted. In this stage, 15 liters of water from the total process are added (equipment used: skinning sieve 1 mm to 4 mm). This technique is used for fruits such as garlic, thyme and oregano.   5. CUTTING: This step of the process is used for some of the fresh fruits wherein the fruits are added whole or cut in big sizes to convert them in small pieces during 1 to 5 minutes of exposure, until reaching particles lower than 7 mm. This technique is used for fruits such as onion and cayenne pepper.   6. HOMOGENIZATION OF MICRO INGREDIENTS AND FRUITS: In this step are added and mixed all the ingredients of the production batch with the amount of water corresponding to the formulation and subtracting from the amount of water used in the skinning process. Homogenization time: 5-8 minutes, room temperature 20-25° C. average in the plant. Equipment used: compact process unit having 2 stirrers upper and lower of centripetal and centrifuge action, respectively, and worked simultaneously.
           Water is added to the equipment gauging its volume and following the addition of each one of the ingredients: water (200 liters), carrageenan, dehydrated garlic, salt, garlic, garlic essential oil and it is completed with water of the formulation. This crude mixture should register the soluble solids indicated in the technical chart for each product. See table of physicochemical results for garlic paste in Doypack package, in Brix degree without evaporation, as illustrated above.   
           7. THERMAL TREATMENT: Process carried out by means of steam heating through 2 jackets upper and lower, and stirring, and permanent scraping reaching a temperature between 90° C. and 93° C. maintained during 4 to 7 minutes in order to destroy the microorganisms without changing the composition and qualities of the product. Once time is completed, the steam supplying is suspended. At this time, the process for preparing the mixture is finished which should measure the established soluble solids. See table of physicochemical results for garlic paste in Doypack package, in Brix degree evaporated, as illustrated above.   8. PUMPING: The obtained mixture is pumped to the storage tank of the corresponding filling line, which must be previously pre heated with its lower jacket; pumping should be made with constant stirring in both tanks; once the product is pumped, recovering steam should be provided and keeping the lower jacket at a temperature between 82° C. to 86° C. in the storage tank.   9. PACKING: To open the lower valve of the container storage tank to fill the release pipe to the machine nozzle, and verifying the inlet temperature by draining in containers or buckets until reaching a reading of 82° C. or greater. At this time, the packing is started achieving temperature records in packing centers of minimum 80° C. to the outlet of the packing machine.   10. THERMAL SHOCK: A suspension process of the temperature between 80 and 85° C. until it decreases to 30° C. to 35° C., it is performed at the higher speed as possible, in order to improve the microbiological quality.   11. QUARANTINE: In this step, the product is stored during 5 days, in which microbiological and physicochemical analysis are carried out, in order to verify and validate if the quality parameters required are fulfilled.   12. PACKING: The package is labeled with the batch and the expiring date as follows: Batch: two first numbers corresponding to the production day, next two digits corresponding to the production month, the last two numbers corresponding to the production year, these numbers go along with the consecutive number of the batch.
           Expiring date: the first two digits corresponding to the expiring date; next two digits corresponding to the expiring month, the last two numbers corresponding to the expiring year.   For the flexible packages line, the packaging process is carried out in its corresponding corrugated board.   
           13. STORAGE AND DISTRIBUTION: The final product is stored in the distribution center duly identified at suitable rotation until the time of dispatching to the final consumer.       
 
         [0094]    Therefore, the process of the present invention makes it possible to prepare doughy products subject of the present invention to be conserved by means of the synergy, in the proportions found for the acetic acid and the lactic acid, which guaranties acceptable levels of quality prolonging the life span up to 12 months, without physicochemical, sensorial or microbiological alterations. 
       ADVANTAGES OF THE INVENTION 
       [0095]    Particularly, the advantages of the doughy seasoning product having 100% natural, organic and non organic ingredients subject of the present invention, may be based on the following considerations as compared with conventional seasoning products:
