Treatt Creates Savory Flavor Enhancer
Jalapeno Treattarome 9816 is a companion product to Habanero Treattarome 9815, but like the natural fruit, the new Jalapeno Treattarome carries a greener, bell pepper-like note, differentiating it from the hot, tangy habanero chilli.
Feb 8 2012 --- Global independent supplier to the flavour industry, Treatt plc has developed a new pepper Treattarome to enhance savoury flavours without adding the fiery sensation of chilli pepper. Jalapeno Treattarome 9816 is a companion product to Habanero Treattarome 9815, but like the natural fruit, the new Jalapeno Treattarome carries a greener, bell pepper-like note, differentiating it from the hot, tangy habanero chilli.
100% natural, this FTNF (from the named food) distillate delivers the complex and unique flavour of jalapeno. Treattarome 9816 is wholly distilled from top-grade jalapeno peppers, which are processed and distilled in a short, rapid production process which preserves the fresh character of the pepper. Using specialised technology, this new Treattarome is collected without the need for extended heat processing. The resulting clear to pale yellow extract is miscible with water, alcohol and propylene glycol. It enables the development and manufacturing of products with a reliable degree of heat in the resulting taste. Successful applications include salsa and pepper sauces where control of the capsaicin heat level is important. Furthermore, with no added preservatives or antioxidants, Treattarome 9816 carries a clean label to increase consumer appeal.
Taking its name from Xalapa in Veracruz state, Mexico, the jalapeno pepper is generally used in hot sauces. At a dose of 0.1%, Treattarome 9816 imparts a strong fresh, green and earthy flavour with warm paprika notes, but without the intense heat. At a dose of less than 0.01%, it delivers fresh, green peppery undertones.
Hugo Bovill, Treatt CEO says: “We developed the Jalapeno Treattarome in response to customer demand for new fresh, savoury and even sweet flavours. It offers the promise of creative cocktails, vegetable sauces and dips for imaginative new product development. This is the latest addition to our family of pepper Treattaromes, which now includes Jalapeno, Habanero, Green Bell and Roast Bell”.
