ABSTRACT:
A method for producing a high-quality, low oil content, concentrated protein cake from oil seeds, such as peanuts, almonds, soybeans and blends thereof, in which oil seeds having a moisture content of between about 5 and 9 percent by weight are blanched, quickly heated for sterilization to about 71.degree.-99.degree. C., and pressed in a screw press expelling device preheated to about 107.degree.-132.degree. C. The heating of the oil seeds can be done by flash sterilization in a hot oil bath, which can be oil seed oil, including oils obtained as a byproduct of the process. Dry heating is also possible. The process produces an essentially sterile concentrated protein cake having an oil content of about 10% or less and a protein dispersibility index of about 86% or higher, which makes it suitable for most food grade requirements without roasting. The solid cake material which is at least 50% protein is sufficiently clean for use in products that receive only minimum heat during processing, and can also be roasted to any desired degree of browning to enhance flavor. The protein product cake can be ground to produce a high-quality, low fat protein flour that can be used in a variety of products that require an undenatured protein product. The protein rich cake that results from the process can be re-pressed a second time to remove additional oil without significantly degrading the protein. A high grade oil is also obtained as a byproduct of the process. The oil and protein rich cake are both free of solvents.
