An objective of the present invention is to provide plant protein laving a good flavor and no unfavorable flavor by a relatively simple method. The present invention has been accomplished by finding the knowledge that an unfavorable flavor derived from plant protein disappears, and a good flavor is obtained, by mixing a solution containing 0.1 to 30% by weight of plant protein with 0.5 to 15% by weight, relative to the plant protein, of ethanol, and heating the mixture for sterilization.

Disclosed here is a process for preparing a concentrated liquid composition (such as a broth) from poultry or other meat sources without the use of any enzymes. The resultant composition may have high content of solids but are pumpable or pourable and have relatively long shelf life at room temperature. Also disclosed are methods of extracting proteins from raw poultry or other meat sources at relatively low temperatures. Methods of making a high protein curd is also disclosed.

The invention relates to a method for producing blood meal comprising the subsequent steps of (i) providing an aqueous mixture comprising raw blood, preferably having a solid content of between about 5 and about 18 wt %, and (ii) increasing the solid content of the mixture to obtain a mixture having a solid content of about 20 wt % or higher, preferably between about 20-80 wt % and (iii) concurrently drying and grinding the resultant mixture in an air turbulence mill, to obtain blood meal having an average particle size (d50) between 20 m and 0.7 mm, a d90 of below 1 mm as measured with laser diffraction using a dry powder Beckman Coulter particle size analyzer, and an ileal digestibility of about 85% or higher preferably of about 87% or higher, and more preferably about 90% or higher. The invention furthermore relates to a coagulated blood meal product with high ileal digestibility.

A method for recycling protein waste and producing an edible product for animal consumption comprises grinding animal carcasses or parts thereof and thereafter acidifying the waste. The acidified waste may then be emulsified, followed by a heat shock and then fed to animals. Alternatively, a second emulsification may be employed prior to being used for animal consumption. The emulsified products may be provided to animals as a liquid, or dried to a paste prior to use.
