Nexira debuts new texturiser at FIE

At the recently held Food Ingredients Europe event, global provider of natural and organic ingredients and botanical extracts, Nexira, launched a new premium texturiser in the form of naltive LBG 190 FV.

naltive LBG 190 FV is an extra high grade locust bean gum offering extremely white colour and containing no black speck. naltive LBG 190 FV offers the highest viscosity at lower temperature. This high-performance specialty can reach 80% to 90% of its maximum potential viscosity at 50°C, resulting in several benefits, according to Nexira:

• Efficient in industrial process with temperatures lower than 80°C
• Provides a texturising and stabilising effect at lower temperature
• Protects the protein matrix during the sensitive step of rising temperature
• Results in smoother texture, better creaminess, and controlled syneresis.

Thanks to its specific functionality, naltive LBG 190 FV is easy-to-use in a large array of traditional applications and plant-based products: cream cheese, spreadable cheese, ice creams, yogurt and all the equivalent recipes in dairy alternatives.
