Descripción

Plant Proteins: Farm to Table addresses all aspects of plant proteins, including plant science, chemistry, processing, formulations, nutrition, and trends. This important reference also covers cereal and pulse plant-based and soy proteins and presents protein extraction and processing techniques, as well as ingredient principles and their application in formulating plant-based products, from ingredient interactions to processing to measurement science, including sensory. The book addresses not only the different types of plant proteins and their nutritional aspects but also plant protein processing and ingredients and formulating plant proteins to develop plant-based foods.

It will be a welcomed addition to the libraries of food technologists, research scientists, product developers, process engineers, students and educators.
