An essentially carbohydrate-free, protein-based flour substitute and methods for preparing the same are disclosed herein. The flour substitute may be used to make pizza crusts, chips, taco shells, tortillas, crackers, sandwich thins, and other food products that are traditionally flour based. The organoleptic properties of the disclosed flour substitute preferably resemble the organoleptic properties of traditional baked goods and are substantially different from the organoleptic properties of traditional meat products. The disclosed flour substitute comprises a meat or nut flour, a flavor-masking spice, salt, and a vegetable, fruit, or plant-based oil or an oil-based spray. The disclosed flour substitute is used to make substitute food products that preferably resemble, in both appearance and taste, the traditional food products that the substitute food products are replacing. The flour substitute is preferably fiber-free and does not contain any other non digestible carbohydrates. Methods of preparing the disclosed flour substitute are also disclosed herein.

This document relates to ground meat replicas, and more particularly to plant-based products that mimic ground meat, including the fibrousness, heterogeneity in texture, beefy flavor, and red-to-brown color transition during cooking of ground meat.

An edible meat substitute product includes a fibrous mycelium mass in a range of 10 wt % to 100 wt %. The fibrous mycelium mass has a protein content greater than 40 wt % of a dry mass of the fibrous mycelium mass. The edible meat substitute product includes a water content in a range of 0 w % to 90 wt %.

This invention relates to compositions comprising cellulose particles and methods for making and using same. This invention also relates to compositions comprising a fluid and particles comprising cellulose. Thus, disclosed herein are methods of manufacture, isolation, purification, and handling of cellulose particles. Also disclosed are uses for cellulose particles as additives in leavened or leavenable food products, or in an emulsion or emulsifiable product, or as a suspension aid, or in a thickened composition, or in a meat or meat analog product, or in a personal care formulation, or in a beauty formulation, or in a cosmetic formulation, or in a skin care formulation. Also disclosed are uses for cellulose particles in subterranean treatment compositions. Also disclosed are uses for cellulose particles in metal working compositions, cutting compositions, and stamping compositions. Also disclosed herein are resuspendable particles comprising cellulose. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present invention.

The present invention relates to the use of an anthocyanin and/or betanin as a colourant in a food product, plant extracts as a source of anthocyanins and/or betanins, compositions comprising the plant extracts and processes using the anthocyanins and/or betanins or compositions described herein.

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.
