Filling Aids - Delicious, creamy risotto for industrial manufacture
Risotto enjoys an excellent reputation as a high quality, traditional Mediterranean dish yet its preparation is very time-consuming. G. C. Hahn & Co. has formulated a stabiliser system that now allows for simple, industrial production of an appealing Risotto dish as a convenient ready meal. The rice-based meal can be refined with high quality ingredients such as olive oil, herbs, etc. and offers the characteristic creamy Risotto texture with that slight "al dente" character of the individual rice grains.

The stabiliser system serves as a filling aid and permits cold processing and cold filling of the ingredients before the Risotto undergoes sterilisation. Additionally the rice does not need to be subjected to any pre-treatment and can be added directly in the process. This short preparation time combined with trouble-free one step filling delivers a high degree of efficiency in processing and therefore permits a greater number of production cycles.

"Healthy Balance" - trendy meat products with added value
Escalating consumer interest in health and nutrition offers new opportunities for the food industry. Increasingly, producers are responding to consumer desires for healthier food with new product launches with modified ingredients. Beginning in the dairy segment, the growing wellness/health trend also now becomes more significant for the fine food and meat industry. HAHN has tapped into this trend and developed a range of Healthy balanced scalded sausages - scalded sausages with different healthy inserts such as spinach, tomato or quark or with the exchange or reduction of fats.

Specially developed HAHN stabiliser systems guarantee optimal stability, ideal insert gellification, and good sliceability. In addition to the inserts, the scalded sausages are rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids through the addition of sun flower oil. In this application, individually tailored combinations of hydrocolloids and proteins with excellent synergistic effects ensure a suitable viscosity and firm bite.
From all of the many advantages associated with HAHN product developments, one of the most appealing is that all concepts can be manufactured on conventional process-equipment, without any additional capital investment.

"Advanced Indulgence" with advanced technology
Especially for kids - and great for adults as well - fromage frais desserts are very popular in many countries. It is a traditional fermented dairy product produced via the 'separator' process. Now HAHN offers a new development, producible on a conventional yogurt production line, with slightly modified recipe components.
The HAHN AT Fromage Frais (AT = Advanced Technology) is a product development which matches the well-known texture profile of conventional fromage frais, based on yogurt. Ideal as a snack product with more protein, or as an indulgent dessert snack with a trendy fruit addition - also delicious for adults. Besides that, it can be used as a great base for savoury spreads and more.
