ABSTRACT:
The present invention describes protein hydrolysates: obtainable by the hydrolysis of a protein containing substrate; comprising free amino acids and peptides; and wherein the molar fraction of at least one free amino acid, present in the protein hydrolysate is at least a factor 2.5, preferably at least a factor 3, more preferably at least a factor 3.5 times higher than in a hydrolysate of the same protein containing substrate which has been completely hydrolysed to free amino acids, wherein the molar fraction of the at least one free amino acid in the protein hydrolysate is at least 25%; and wherein the Amino Acid Quotient (AAQ) in the protein hydrolysate is at least 10%. These protein hydrolysates can be used in the preparation of food compositions, wherein these protein hydrolysates provide for novel and unexpected flavours. Moreover these protein hydrolysates are applicable in personal care applications.
