High-moisture extrusion of fibrous meat analog. Soy protein is fast becoming a food protein of choice due to its abundant availability and health benefits. One promising and emerging technology for transforming soy proteins into palatable and consumer-acceptable products is high-moisture extrusion, which, unlike low-moisture extrusion, produces a meat analog more resembling muscle food. The objectives of this proposed research are: To develop a technique that can objectively measure the degree of fiber formation in extruded soy proteins. To determine factors affecting fiber formation. To understand protein-protein interactions and fiber formation mechanisms. To determine changes in nutrients and bioactive components following…
