Abstract

See full text

Meat analogue products and methods of making these products are provided. The products are made from compositions comprising a mixture of ingredients, including a vegetable protein, a dough conditioner, and less than about 25% by weight flour. These compositions can optionally further comprise: thermally-preformed, texturized, protein components; oils and/or fats; flavors; spices; seasoning; colors; acids; and preservatives. These products can be provided in a log or slab formation and cut into dices, slices, cubes or any other desired geometry, and packaged and/or further processed as necessary (e.g., added to pizza products). Novel methods for the continuous manufacture of these products using a forming heat exchanger are also provided. This continuous process provides casingless food products analogous to meat products such as pepperoni.
