A shaped vegetarian meat product comprising: 30-80 wt. % water; 5-35 wt. % oil, said oil having a solid fat content at 20 degrees Celsius (N.sub.20) of at least 1.5%; 2-25 wt. % protein selected from algal protein, bacterial protein, dairy protein, egg protein, fungal protein, plant protein, and combinations thereof; 0-40 wt. % of one or more particulate ingredients selected from herbs, spices, vegetables and combinations thereof. Wherein the vegetarian meat product contains at least 4 vol. % of oil droplets having an equivalent spherical diameter in the range of 100 micrometer to 1,000 micrometer as determined by means of micro computed tomography.

The present disclosure provides methods for producing consumable recombinant proteins that are substantially free from herein-disclosed undesired byproducts.

Provided herein are shelf-stable protein food ingredients, food products comprising the shelf-stable protein food ingredients, methods of their production, and methods of their use. The shelf-stable protein food ingredients comprise cultured fungal biomass and a limited amount of water. Advantageously, the shelf-stable protein food ingredients can be stored, transported, and delivered within the food supply.
