A salt substitute composition comprising: a) from about 70% to about 98% by weight potassium chloride, b) from about 1 % to about 20% by weight of a non-reducing sugar, preferably sucrose, c) from about 0.3 % to about 15% by weight of an edible organic acid, preferably adipic acid, d) from about 0.5 % to about 10% by weight of a glutamate salt, preferably potassium glutamate, and from about 0.15% to about 5% by weight of an anti- caking agent, preferably tricalcium phosphate, said percentages adding up to 100%, is stable and palatable even after storage at high temperatures over an extended period of time. Use of a non-reducing sugar achieves the beneficial effects of masking the undesirable bitter taste of the potassium ion without reacting with the glutamate salt as do reducing sugars.
一种盐替代物组合物,包括:a) 按重量计,从约 70% 到约 98% 的
氯化钾;b) 按重量计,从约 1% 到约 20% 的非还原糖,最好是
蔗糖;c) 按重量计,从约 0.3% 到约 15% 的食用有机酸,最好是
己二酸;d) 按重量计,从约 0.c) 约 0.3 % 至约 15%(按重量计)的食用有机酸,最好是
己二酸;d) 约 0.5 % 至约 10%(按重量计)的谷
氨酸盐,最好是谷
氨酸
钾;以及约 0.15 % 至约 5%(按重量计)的防结块剂,最好是
磷酸三
钙。使用非还原糖可以掩盖
钾离子的苦味,而不会像还原糖那样与谷
氨酸盐发生反应。
