The meat analog may comprise a solidified protein emulsion, which comprises the protein and at least one insoluble particle. In some embodiments, at least a portion of the particles is selected from the group consisting of silicon and calcium, such as rhombohedral calcite, dogfang calcite, silicon dioxide, and one or more of magnesium oxide. With two mineral materials; bone powder, cartilage powder, crushed shellfish shells, crushed shellfish shells, and crushed eggshells, and / or gelled vegetable gums, gelled hydrophilic colloids, polymerized plant gums, polymerized hydrophilics. It may include at least one organic material selected from the group consisting of colloids or mixtures thereof. Meat analogues can be produced by extruding a protein emulsion and cooling the extruded emulsion. Meat analogues can be cut into chunks and / or added to other food compositions such as gravy or broth. [Selection diagram] Fig. 1 |
