The present invention relates to a gelled food concentrate, in particular a gelled food concentrate to prepare a ready-to-eat end product like a soup, a sauce, or a gravy. It is an object to provide a gelled food concentrate, which upon dilution in an aqueous liquid provides a viscous ready-to-eat end product, most desirably agelled food concentrate with a homogenous texture and ingredient distribution. Surprisingly, these complications were overcome by a gelled food concentrate comprising water, asaltsensitive gum, salt and a gelling pectin.
