Phosphates are designed to enhance the stability of specific food processes—primarily in meat and dairy products—through efficient emulsification.
In processed and cream cheese production, emulsifying salts are used to create a smooth, creamy texture and desirable melting properties.
Phosphates are a functional ingredient that affects the meat proteins to improve water-holding capacity and protein extraction which results in a meat product with better bind and improved texture.
