Abstract

See full text

Disclosed are R-T-E cereal compositions of reduced salt content which nonetheless provide enhanced cooked cereal flavor. Also disclosed are methods for the preparation of such R-T-E cereals. The present methods comprise cooking a cereal to form a cooked cereal dough in the presence of sucrose and a water soluble calcium salt under conditions of elevated temperature and pressure for an extended cook. The combination of ingredients and cooking conditions provides cooked cereal dough and R-T-E cereals prepared therefrom which possess surprisingly increased levels of pyrazine flavor constituents.
