- Product Usage
1. Processing low-fat foods (such as cream and spreadable foods)
Inulin is a fat substitute. When mixed with water, it forms a creamy structure, which makes it easy to replace fat in food and provide a smooth taste, balanced and rounded flavor. It can replace fat into fiber, increase the compactness and taste of the product, and can stably improve the dispersion of emulsification. It can replace 30-60% of fat in cream and spreadable food processing.
2. Prepare high-fiber diet
Inulin has good solubility in water, which enables it to be combined with aqueous systems. It contains rich water-soluble dietary fiber, and unlike other fibers, it does not produce precipitation problems. It is very convenient to use inulin as a fiber ingredient and can improve the sensory properties. They can help the human body get a more balanced diet, so they can be used as high-fiber food ingredients.

Adding inulin to baked products is used to develop new concept breads, such as probiotic bread, multi-fiber white bread, and even multi-fiber gluten-free bread. Inulin can increase dough stability, adjust water absorption, increase bread volume, and improve bread crumb uniformity and sheeting ability.
5. Used in juice drinks, functional water drinks, sports drinks, fruit juices, and jellies.
Adding 0.8~3% inulin to juice drinks, functional water drinks, sports drinks, fruit juices, and jellies can make the flavor of the beverage thicker and the texture better.
