Pulse proteins are playing significant roles in the alternative protein space due to the demand for foods produced in an environmentally sustainable manner and, most importantly, due to the demand for foods of nutritious value. There has been extensive research to mimic animal-derived meat texture, flavour, mouthfeel, etc. However, there is still the perception that many of the plant-based proteins that have been texturized to mimic meat are still highly processed and contain chemicals or preservatives, reducing their appeal as being healthy and precluding any sustainable benefits. To counter this notion, the biotransformation of pulse proteins using enzymes or fermentation offers unique opportunities. Thus, this review will address the significance of pulse proteins in the alternative protein space and some of the processing aids leading to the isolation and modification of such protein concentrates in a sustainable manner. Fermentation-based valorization of pulse proteins will also be discussed as a “clean label” strategy (further adding to sustainable nutritious plant protein production), although some of the processes like the extensive use of water in submerged fermentation need to be addressed. |
