Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a vegetable protein-containing food having an excellent texture, preferably also having good flavor/taste. The vegetable protein-containing food can be produced by adding transglutaminase and glucose oxidase or adding transglutaminase, glucose oxidase and phospholipase to a food raw material containing a vegetable protein.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A method for producing a plant protein-containing food, the method comprising: adding a transglutaminase and a glucose oxidase to a food raw material containing a plant protein. 2 . The method according to claim 1 , which further comprises adding a phospholipase to the food raw material. 3 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the phospholipase is phospholipase D. 4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the transglutaminase is added in an amount of 1.0×10 −4 U or larger per 1 g of the food raw material, and the glucose oxidase is added in an amount of 1.0×10 −4 U or larger per 1 g of the food raw material. 5 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the phospholipase is added in an amount of 1.0×10 −3 U or larger per 1 g of the food raw material. 6 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein the plant protein-containing food is a food prepared by mixing a binding material containing the food raw material containing a plant protein, with another food raw material in a crumble form, and cooking the mixture, and wherein the amounts of the transglutaminase and glucose oxidase to be added are read as amounts per 1 g of the binding material. 7 . The method according to claim 5 , wherein the plant protein-containing food is a food prepared by mixing a binding material containing the food raw material containing a plant protein, with another food raw material in a crumble form, and cooking the mixture, and wherein the amounts of the transglutaminase, glucose oxidase, and phospholipase to be added are read as amounts per 1 g of the binding material. 8 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the plant protein is a soybean protein. 9 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the plant protein-containing food is a meat substitute food. 10 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the plant protein-containing food is a Hamburg steak type food. 11 . An enzyme preparation for producing a plant protein-containing food, the preparation containing a transglutaminase and a glucose oxidase. 12 . The enzyme preparation according to claim 11 , wherein the plant protein-containing food is a meat substitute food. 13 . The enzyme preparation according to claim 11 , which further contains a phospholipase.
