The present invention relates to a method for processing fresh algae at ambient temperature by subjecting algae to an osmotic shock and treating the disrupted algae with an enzyme composition comprising cell wall degrading enzymes. This gentle process at ambient temperature allows for the isolation of algal protein which has good solubility, also in the presence of salt and good foaming, emulsifying and water binding properties. Another advantage is that this method of protein isolation allows for cascaded biorefinery, since protein isolation may be followed by a treatment of the remaining biomass with carbohydrate degrading enzymes to produce clean biogas in high yields and a mineral rich water stream in anaerobic digestion.

Flour improvers, chlorinated flour replacers comprising the flour improver, methods of preparing the flour improvers and chlorinated flour replacers, and uses thereof (e.g. for improving the textural properties of wheat flour-based high ratio cakes) are provided. The flour improver as disclosed herein comprises between 10% and 97.5% (w/w) of non-wheat flour, wherein the non-wheat flour is one or more non-wheat flours selected from the group consisting of rice flour, oat flour, quinoa flour and buckwheat flour; between 2% and 20% (w/w) of a gel-forming protein in addition to protein present in the non-wheat flour; and between 0.5% and 3% (w/w) of calcium 2+ ions.

The present invention in the field of oligosaccharide production provides a method of producing oligosaccharides of useful lengths without producing substantial amounts of monosaccharides and disaccharides (illustrated by FIG. 1). There is provided a method for producing an ingredient suitable for incorporation into a foodstuff, cosmetic, or nutraceutical, said ingredient comprising one or more oligosaccharides, wherein the oligosaccharides are produced in an enzymatic reaction, said enzymatic reaction comprising the step of contacting, in a solution or suspension, a polysaccharide-cleaving enzyme and a polysaccharide-containing feedstock, wherein said enzymatic reaction produces substantially no monosaccharides or disaccharides.
