Enzyme modified protein and a process for its preparation.

摘要

A process for the preparation of isolated vegetable protein materials includes extracting vegetable protein meal using an aqueous alkaline bath, forming a liquor. Vegetable protein material is then precipitated from the liquor by acidification. The vegetable protein material is treated with a chelating agent to improve its physical properties. The precipitated vegetable protein material is subjected to an enzymatic hydrolysis treatment resulting in an isolated vegetable protein material having physical properties so improved that the protein mixes with meats to form products with enhanced taste and functional properties.
