  • Plant-protein based texturized oil-in-water emulsions
    Patent number: 11653663
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of producing a plant-based oil-in-water emulsion comprising the steps of providing an ingredient composition which is free from dairy protein, said composition comprising 1.5 to 5 wt. %, preferably 2 to 5 wt. % proteins, wherein the protein consist of plant protein only, 0.5 to 10.5 wt %, preferably 1.5 to 7.5 wt % of oil, and having a pH of 5.3-6.7, preferably 5.6-6.6, optionally adding divalent cations to provide a concentration of 1-5 mM free divalent cations in the ingredient composition, optionally adding monovalent cations to provide a concentration of 1-20 mM free monovalent cations in the ingredient composition and homogenizing and subsequently heat treating the ingredient composition to a temperature of 80°-100° C. for a period of 0.5-15 min or an ultra high temperature (UHT) heat treatment above 135° C.
