The invention provides nanoemulsion for preparing plant-based meat, the nanoemulsion has a particle size ranging from 300 nm to 320 nm. The plant-based meat prepared by using the nanoemulsion of the present invention can retain flavors after various cooking methods. The plant-based meat of the present invention can withstand different pH values and temperatures, and remains stable at different concentrations of salt, sugar, lipids, protein, carbohydrates and a variety of organic compounds, and will not lower consumer’s flavor expectations and perceptions. The plant-based meat of the present invention retains more flavors, so less flavoring is needed, and the cost will be reduced.

Systems and methods describe improvements in the automated production of meat analogues. Ingredients are provided, including oil, water, binding agent(s), and one or more forms of protein to be separately and continuously conveyed through a facility. Concurrently to the ingredients being conveyed through the facility, a number of actions occur. The system emulsifies the oil, water, and binding agent(s) within an emulsifying machine to form a final emulsion. A hydration process is separately applied to at least one of the forms of protein. The system mixes and conveys the protein(s) with the final emulsion in a final mixer to form a final dough.

Disclosed is a method for preparing an emulsion gel-based fat substitute with adjustable phase change and use thereof, belonging to the field of oils and fats and food processing. The emulsion gel-based fat substitutes are prepared by using an oil-soluble polysaccharide, oil-soluble small molecule gelling agent, water-soluble large molecule gelling agent and vegetable oil as raw materials, dissolving the oil-soluble polysaccharide, small molecule gelling agent and water-soluble large molecule gelling agent in the heated oil and water phases, mixing and emulsifying the oil solution and aqueous solution to obtain an emulsion, and then gelling the emulsion upon stirring and cooling. An oil-soluble polysaccharide reduces the amount of oil-soluble small molecule gelling agent, an emulsion gel-based fat substitute containing trans-free low-saturated fatty acids is prepared, and the overall oil content of the emulsion gel is reduced by adding the water phase gelled with the water-soluble large molecule gelling agent.

The invention relates to a shaped vegetarian meat product comprising: a) 30-80 wt. % water; b) 5-35 wt. % oil, said oil having a solid fat content at 20 degrees Celsius (N.sub.20) of at least 1.5%; c) 2-25 wt. % protein selected from algal protein, bacterial protein, dairy protein, egg protein, fungal protein, plant protein, and combinations thereof; d) 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. This shaped vegetarian meat product has a very attractive juicy appearance and texture.

Disclosed herein is a multi-purpose aerosol platform capable of producing and delivery of submicron and nano structured materials for pharmaceutical, biomedical and environmental applications. Depending on the application, active chemical and biological materials may be processed from liquid dispersions into droplets and/or particle formulations. The disclosed system uses moderate gas pressures to atomize liquids into submicron-size droplets that are 10-1000 times smaller in diameter than commercial and research systems. This allows much gentler and rapid droplet-to-particle conversion, applying much smaller physical and chemical stresses on the processed materials than conventional techniques like spray drying, spray coating, spray freeze drying and other technologies. For example, the disclosed system can be used for an ultra-fine nebulization and delivery of viscous therapeutic oils including oils of medical cannabis, for which conventional nebulization systems either fail or became ineffective. Such systems could help patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) developed in hard COVID-19 cases.

The present invention relates to a stable emulsion of an aqueous phase in a lipid phase wherein non-fatty cocoa solids and/or non-fatty milk solids are present in the lipid phase. The present invention further relates to a process for making an emulsion, said process comprising adding the lipid phase in two steps.
