Citrus Fiber has good capability of water retention, oil retention and swelling (it can bind moisture 25 times of its own weight and form a stable structure), which can bring a full, natural and thick taste to the product and can replace a variety of thickeners and emulsifiers. It has the following advantages during applications:
1) Product quality improvement
Effectively increase the thickness and fullness of the product; good and natural release of aroma and flavor; full-bodied taste close to fat
2) Excellent processing characteristics
The operation can be carried out without hot water or pretreatment, which can be directly applied in cold water; acid, heat and shearing resistance.
3) Stability improvement
Excellent capability of water retention, namely it can significantly improve the precipitation of water; can improve the emulsification effect; freezing-resistance, the characteristics can be still stable after freezing and thawing; prevent product moisture loss; has a positive effect on the preservation period, the speed of ice melting, the loss of cooking, and the stability of the foam.
4) The new mainstream of health concept
No added concept; cleaner product label; better stability; more stable and delicious low-fat products; up to 70% fiber content.
Wide applications of Citrus Fiber
With the good processibility and water retention capacity, Citrus Fiber have a wide application range, applicable in various water-containing foods. In terms of the product types, the applications of Citrus Fiber can be classified in the following items:
1. Bakery food (such as baked fillings, wheat bran-free baked goods)
Control water activity and extend shelf life
Increase dough resilience

The dosage varies according to the product type: between 0.25%-1.00%
2. Meat products (such as canned meats, preserved foods, hams)
Imitate the mouthfeel and stability of fat
Increase juiciness, resilience, and chewiness
Reduce dehydration and cooking loss
Free from bad flavors plant proteins may have
Enhance the humidity of meat products, reduce the use of phosphates, enhance texture, and increase output. The amount used depends on the product type: 0.25%-1.00%.
