Pea Textured Protein

What is Pea textured protein?

Textured Pea Protein (TPP) is a plant protein product made from pea protein through physical or chemical processing. It has a similar fibrous structure to meat and is widely used as a meat substitute.YTBIO Pea Textured Protein contains over 80% protein, perfectly mimicking the elasticity and chewiness of animal meat, providing an ideal texture foundation for plant-based meat products while retaining their natural advantages of low fat and low allergenicity. Choose YTBIO to easily achieve a comprehensive upgrade in both nutrition and taste for plant-based foods.

Pea textured protein contains many nutrients and is particularly easy to be absorbed by the body. It contains more than 20 kinds of amino acids in the body, thus providing a large amount of protein. When the body gets various nutrients, it can improve the functions of various organs, thereby increasing the ability to resist viruses. Especially for people who are weak or have a general recovery, after using it, they can recover quickly and keep the body healthy. Pea textured protein can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and has a good effect on clearing the large intestine. People who usually have constipation can get a good improvement after using it. For people who usually have the idea of losing weight, they can also use pea protein powder, which can not only lose weight, but also protect eyesight and prevent vision loss.

Adding pea protein directly to meat products will bring in the beany smell, which seriously affects the quality of meat products. Pea textured protein can solve this problem well. Twin-screw extrusion is one of the common methods for organizing plant protein. According to the product form and process, it can be divided into two categories: dry extrusion and wet extrusion: the moisture content of the raw materials of the dry method is 20%~35%, and the moisture content of the raw materials of the wet method is 40%~70%. Tissued protein is the key component of "meat simulants" and is mainly obtained through extrusion processing. Pea protein is sensitive to extrusion temperature and can obtain tissue protein with good cohesion.

Preparation Methods

Extrusion Technology: High temperature, high pressure, and shear force are used to reorganize pea protein molecules, forming a fibrous structure similar to meat.

Acid-Heat Treatment: Under low pH and high temperature conditions, the protein is hydrolyzed and self-assembled, forming a fibrous structure rich in β-sheets.

Ultrasonic-Assisted Treatment: Ultrasonic waves lower the activation energy required for protein fibrillation, enhancing self-assembly ability, promoting fiber formation, and improving solubility and emulsification.

Product Features

Meat-like Texture: Reproduces the elasticity and chewiness of animal meat, providing a similar taste option for vegetarians and those reducing meat intake.

High Protein, Low Fat: As a nutrient-rich plant protein source, it has a protein content of 21%-28% and a low fat content.

Low Allergenicity: Compared to soy protein, it has lower allergenicity, suitable for a wider range of consumers.

Functional Applications: Adding it to meat products can increase protein content and improve sensory properties, such as making the product softer, smoother, or more elastic.

Health Effects:

1. Improve immunity: It helps to enhance the body's immune function and effectively resist the invasion of external viruses.

2. Promote gastrointestinal health: It helps to improve constipation and maintain intestinal health by promoting gastrointestinal motility.

3. Comprehensive amino acid supplementation: It contains more than 20 kinds of amino acids needed by the body, which helps to improve the function of various organs.

4. Promote recovery after illness and surgery: The nutrients it contains help the body recover quickly, especially for people with weak constitutions.

5. Help slimming: High-protein foods can increase satiety, control weight, and help lose weight.

6. Promote collagen synthesis: Helps maintain the elasticity and health of the skin.

Application Areas

Plant-based meat: Primarily used in the production of plant-based meat products such as sausages, meat patties, meatballs, and reconstituted steaks, as well as vegan meat products.

Other food products: Used as a binder, filler, or functional enhancer in baked goods and snacks to improve their structure, nutrition, and functionality.
