ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling and/or modifying the morphology of inulin is provided. Using this method, inulin can be produced having, as desired, a predominately needle-like morphology or a predominately obloid-type morphology. The controlled morphology inulin of the present invention (i.e., needles, obloids, or combinations thereof) can be used in low-fat and/or fat-free viscous food products where the inulin acts as a fat mimetic. By controlling the morphology of inulin used in such food products, better control of organoleptic and physical properties of the food product can be obtained.
