The research on production technology and application process of textured soybean protein

Textured soybean protein was an important product of soybean protein processing industry. The review on production technology and its key technology could improve products quality and variety and promote the stable development of soybean protein processing industry. This paper stated research process of textured soybean protein production technology, key technology, quality evaluation, food application involved, etc. Textured soybean protein had similar filamentary structure and chewiness properties as animal protein. Substitution animal protein could decrease production cost and improve dietary pattern. Protein content, filamentary structure, water holding capability, and color were the quality factors of textured soybean protein. Extrusion textured soybean protein industry gave priority to common textured soybean protein, and began to conduct large-scale production on wiredrawing protein with obvious filamentary structure, while high moisture textured soybean protein was still at the stage of experiment. © 2015, Editorial Department, Chinese Cereals and Oils Association.
