A method of making a flour for pizzas and pastas has the steps of extracting coconut water from a coconut, drying the meat of the coconut at a temperature between 4° C. in 10° C. until the meat is dry, and crushing and grinding the dry meat so as to produce a gluten-free flour. In order to make a pizza, the coconut base flour is mixed with an approximately equal proportion of water, kneaded and heated. The flour for the pizza will include approximately 51.5% of the gluten-free coconut flour.

A multilayer structure instant noodle which is manufactured through steps in which an inner layer noodle sheet is sandwiched between outer layer noodle sheets such that these noodle sheets are combined to form a single noodle sheet, the single noodle sheet is flat-rolled so as to form noodle lines, and the noodle lines are gelatinized and dried, and a blending amount of salt in the inner layer noodle sheet is higher than a blending amount of salt in the outer layer noodle sheet.

The present invention discloses a malleable mass of dough comprising: (a) dry material; said dry material comprises flour; and, (b) a liquid component; wherein said liquid component originates from fresh whole Wolffia genus plant added to said dry material during process of kneading; said flour to said fresh Wolffia plant weight ratio (w/w) is in the rage of 100:47 to 100:88; further wherein said dough has a consistency of 500+/−15 FU or [10-170 kPa].

Provided herein are methods for producing an adzuki 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 adzuki bean proteins from an adzuki 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 is provided for the production of pasta with yogurt. Pasta made with yogurt can be prepared using dry yogurt powder or prepared yogurt. Such pastas are produced by carefully mixing the ingredients, extruding or pressing the mixture, then drying the formed pasta shapes at temperatures from about 130 degree F to about 200 degree F and at a low relative humidity sufficient to control the drying rate to a final moisture content of about 10 to 13 weight percent, wherein the pasta has, after processing and subsequent cooking, good color, texture, integrity and flavor.
