The Magical Textured Soy Protein: A Nutritional Transformation from Plant to Table

图片
In the trend of pursuing a healthy and delicious diet, textured soy protein is quietly emerging as a rising star in the food industry. You may have tasted it in vegan meats and snack foods, but you might not be fully aware of its magical transformation process. The extraction and processing of textured soy protein can be regarded as a delicate "magic trick". First of all, high-quality soybeans are carefully selected and undergo pretreatment processes such as cleaning and peeling to remove impurities and bean skins. Subsequently, an advanced leaching process is adopted, using a specific solvent to extract the oil from the soybeans, resulting in soybean meal. Then, the soybean meal is ground and made into a slurry, and the pH value is adjusted. After that, it is extruded and formed under high temperature and high pressure. Through this series of complex processes, the originally ordinary soybean raw materials are splendidly transformed into textured protein with a unique struct...

Emulsified Soy Protein Isolate: An Innovative Force in the Food Industry

图片
Emulsified soy protein isolate represents an innovative achievement in the field of soy protein isolates. It starts with high-quality soybeans and undergoes multiple meticulous purification processes to remove non-protein components such as fats and carbohydrates from the soybeans, resulting in an extremely pure soy protein. The finished product appears as a fine powder with uniform color and an exceptionally high protein content, typically exceeding 90%, far surpassing that of ordinary soy protein products. In terms of advantages, emulsified soy protein isolate boasts superior emulsification stability, rapidly forming a stable emulsion in oil-water systems and preventing oil droplet aggregation and layering. In baked goods, it effectively emulsifies fats, ensuring uniform internal structure, soft texture, and extended shelf life for products like bread and cakes. Its outstanding nutritional enhancement effect is also remarkable. As a high-quality plant protein, it is rich in essential...

Hydrolyzed Soy Protein Liquid: The Transformation from Soybeans to a "Universal" Essence

图片
Hydrolyzed soy protein liquid (HVP) is a functional product made from soy protein through a hydrolysis process. Its production process is rather complex.  First, high-quality soybeans are selected and undergo a series of pretreatment steps, such as screening and washing, to remove impurities. Then, defatting is carried out, often using physical pressing or organic solvent extraction to obtain soybean meal with a higher protein content. Next, the crucial hydrolysis step comes into play, with three main methods: acid hydrolysis, alkaline hydrolysis, and enzymatic hydrolysis. Although acid and alkaline hydrolysis are relatively simple to operate, they have harsh reaction conditions, are prone to environmental pollution, and can destroy some amino acids, affecting product quality. Enzymatic hydrolysis, with its mild reaction conditions, easy control of hydrolysis degree, and minimal amino acid damage, has become the mainstream method. In enzymatic hydrolysis, appropriate proteases, suc...

The price of plant-based foods is influenced by the price of me

图片
The competition in the plant-based food industry is far more than just about taste, texture, or marketing. Price is the core factor that determines whether it can truly break through. Although plant-based meat products have achieved price parity in some markets in recent years, and have even been briefly cheaper than traditional meat, on the whole, consumers still tend to choose animal meat with a lower price. And this price advantage does not only come from breeding efficiency, but is the result of long-term shaping by government subsidies and the market system. Why is the price of meat so low? In supermarkets, consumers may not be aware that the market prices of the beef, pork, and chicken they buy often do not truly reflect the production costs. Arild Skedsmo, a senior analyst at KLP, pointed out that the environmental impact of the meat industry has not really been factored into the price. More importantly, globally, the meat industry is often supported by government subsidies to e...

Factors Promoting the Increase in the Consumption of Textured Protein in Vietnam

图片
The consumption of textured protein in Vietnam is on the rise, mainly influenced by multiple factors such as the progress of medical research, the enhancement of health awareness, and the development of the food industry. With the popularization of the vegetarian culture and the improvement of environmental protection awareness, the market prospect of textured protein is broad.  Medical Research Driving Specific Consumption In terms of medical research, there have been studies targeting Vietnamese patients with type 2 diabetes, in which patients were given textured soy protein to consume. The research found that consuming textured soy protein has a positive effect on improving the blood glucose and blood lipid concentrations of patients with type 2 diabetes. This indicates that textured protein has a certain application in the medical and health field in Vietnam, and it may promote the awareness and trial consumption of textured protein among some consumers, especially those who ar...
