ABSTRACT:
A method of preparing a firm-textured shelf stable vegetable or starch-containing food product is provided. The method involves admixing vegetables or starch-containing foods with a sauce and thermally treating said mixture under pressure. The sauce has a water activity of above 0.92 and comprises, in addition to the normal ingredients of spices, flavors, and other compounds, 0.1%-24% polysaccharides by weight having a MW.sub.w in the range of about 3,600 and 250,000. These polysaccharides include starch hydrolysates such as maltodextrin, and other polysaccharides such as alginates and carboxymethyl cellulose. Further, by using the sauce of the present invention, processing times or temperatures are reduced.
