Provided herein are methods for producing a mung bean protein isolate having high functionality for a broad range of food applications. In some embodiments, the methods for producing the isolate comprise one or more steps selected from: (a) extracting one or more mung bean proteins from a mung bean protein source in an aqueous solution, for example, at a pH between about 6.5-10.0; (b) purifying protein from the extract using at least one of two methods: (i) precipitating protein from the extract at a pH near the isoelectric point of a globulin-rich fraction, for example a pH between about 5.0-6.0; and/or (ii) fractionating and concentrating protein from the extract using filtration such as microfiltration, ultrafiltration or ion-exchange chromatography; and (c) recovering purified protein isolate.

A method for producing a vegan food product particulate (X, Y) based on almond flour, as a recipe component or directly as a final food product, includes: a) providing partially de-oiled almond flour having between 5 and 20% by weight fat and between 43 and 57% by weight protein, b) providing water, c) producing a liquid mixture of the partially de-oiled almond flour and the water, the percentage by weight of the almond flour being between 1 and 40% by weight and of water being between 60 and 99% by weight, d) heating the liquid mixture to a temperature between 72° C. and 138° C. and obtaining a heated liquid, e) high-pressure homogenizing the heated liquid in a hot high-pressure homogenization step and obtaining a heated hot high-pressure homogenized liquid, f) cooling the heated hot high-pressure homogenized liquid.
