LycoRed Sante salt-enhancer

July 27, 2011, Isreal – LycoRed Sante is a patented, natural tomato concentrate designed to enhance taste without artificial flavours or flavour enhancers.

Sante can be used for salt taste enhancement and reduction of expensive, flavour components in food products. In many cases, Sante can be used to reduce the amount of salt added to a product.

"The current 'back to basics' trend encourages food manufacturers to minimize the number of ingredients, reduce sodium and avoid E-numbers in the European market, while making it as tasty as ever," explains Ehud Zach, food applications manager at LycoRed. "The good news is that, in some cases, you can save up to 10 to 20 per cent of product cost just by replacing expensive ingredients, while at the same time reducing sodium and enable a clean label."

LycoRed Sante is available in liquid form or as a free-flowing powder and can improve flavour profiles without expensive ingredients such as butter and cheese. It is heat resistant, stable at almost all pHs, and is suitable for ambient, frozen, baked, cooked and fried products.

LycoRed Sante can be mixed directly into dough or food mixes, applied as a seasoning, dusted on or even applied with a brush.
