| Salt Reduction Using Enzymes |
|
Salt reduction should be high on the list of continuous improvements for many companies across the food industry. Even though there has been a vast reduction in salt consumption over recent years, the government salt strategies say a further reduction is needed. New targets have been introduced which is pushing food processors into reformulating the recipe of their food products to reduce the salt content. This may well help with reaching targets, but there is a worry of reduced salt leading to less flavour. Biocatalysts have been working with companies to tackle this problem by using enzymes to keep products flavoursome and high quality without the unnecessary addition of salt.
