  • Publication number: 20080241343
    Abstract: A food making process comprises starting with Lupin legumes with minimum levels of alkaloids, dehulling the Lupin legumes to produce split seed kernels, mixing the split seed kernels with hot water to hydrate them into a slurry, grinding the slurry to blend and smooth it into a product base, cooking the product base to achieve a particular flavor and aroma consistent with a target food product, cooling the product base to stop cooking, and further processing the product base into a target food product like soups and beverages. In particular, the Lupinus Angustifolius variety produces the best results, but other sweet lupin varieties can be used if they have been leached of their bitter tasting alkaloids. The products produced have high levels of protein, vitamins, and other nutritional values. Both batch and continuous processes are possible.
