Product Description
many other plant proteins can be processed using a twin - screw extruder. Here are some common examples: ### 1. Pea protein - **Processing characteristics**: Pea protein has good solubility and gel - forming properties. When processed with a twin - screw extruder, the extruder's shear and heat can denature the pea protein molecules, promoting the formation of a three - dimensional network structure. This can be used to create textured pea protein products that mimic the texture of meat, which are popular in plant - based meat alternatives. - **Formulation and additives**: Similar to soy protein processing, additives like hydrocolloids (such as guar gum or locust bean gum) can be added to improve the texture and stability of the product. Additionally, flavors and colors can be incorporated to enhance the palatability of the final product. ### 2. Wheat protein (gluten) - **Processing characteristics**: Wheat gluten is a unique plant protein with high elasticity. The twin - screw extruder can be used to develop different textures for wheat gluten - based products. By controlling the temperature, shear rate, and moisture content during extrusion, it is possible to create products with a chewy, meat - like texture. For example, seitan, a popular meat substitute in vegetarian and vegan cuisine, can be made using a twin - screw extruder. - **Formulation and additives**: Salt, oil, and various seasonings are often added during the extrusion process to improve the flavor and texture of wheat gluten products. Some formulations may also include other plant proteins or starches to modify the final properties of the product. ### 3. Lentil protein - **Processing characteristics**: Lentil protein can be processed into textured products using a twin - screw extruder. The extrusion process can break down and rearrange the protein molecules, resulting in a product with improved texture and mouthfeel. Lentil protein - based extruded products can be used in a variety of applications, such as in ready - to - eat snacks or as an ingredient in plant - based meals. - **Formulation and additives**: To enhance the flavor and nutritional value, ingredients like spices, vitamins, and minerals can be added. Additionally, binders or fillers may be incorporated to improve the processing properties and the final structure of the product. ### 4. Hemp protein - **Processing characteristics**: Hemp protein contains a balanced amino acid profile. When processed with a twin - screw extruder, it can be used to create novel food products. The extrusion process can help to improve the solubility and digestibility of hemp protein. It can also be used to develop textured hemp protein products for use in plant - based foods. - **Formulation and additives**: Due to the relatively mild flavor of hemp protein, flavors and sweeteners may be added to make the product more appealing. Additionally, other functional ingredients like omega - 3 fatty acids (naturally present in hemp seeds) can be retained or enhanced during the processing to highlight the nutritional benefits of the product. In general, the twin - screw extruder offers a versatile platform for processing different plant proteins, enabling the development of a wide range of food products with improved texture, functionality, and nutritional value.
