The cooked food products can be plant-derived or animal-derived food products, particularly fried snack food products, such as potato chips. The method comprises treating the cooked food product in a two or more extraction stage with a suitable solvent at effective temperatures and pressures, wherein the food product is subjected to a vacuum between each extraction stage.Field of SearchLegume, nut, or seed source material (e.g., peanut, soya bean, rice bran, etc.)Organic solvent extraction Halogen or oxygen in the solvent (e.g., carbon tetrachloride, ethanol, etc.) Fish liver source material Organic solvent extraction Vacuum or pressure utilized (e.g., normally gaseous hydrocarbon solvent kept liquid under pressure, etc.) Halogen or oxygen in the solvent (e.g., trichloroethylene, alcohol, etc.) Extraction utilizing liquid as extracting medium Preparing or treating triglyceridic fat or oil, or processes of separating triglyceridic fat or oil from a starting material, e.g., rendering, etc. Wherein feature is rigid handle member Treatment of food material by addition of material other than water, air, carbon dioxide, nitrogen or inert gases, or mixtures thereof |
