ABSTRACT:
A method is disclosed for producing protein foods and edible oils from protein and oil containing seeds which comprises disintegrating the seeds in an oxygen-free environment, such that air is prevented from entering in and mixing with said environment, to prevent seed enzymes from producing off-flavors and bitter taste without heat treating seeds to inactivate the enzymes and concomitantly insolubilize the seed proteins. Artificial milk extracted from soybeans using this method has no-beany flavor, bitter taste, or chalkiness. Flaking of soybeans employing this method gives bland flakes without denaturing proteins. Such flakes are suitable for making highly functional palatable protein foods.
