VEGEBIND P

VEGEBIND P is a processed yellow pea ingredient specially prepared for food industry applications. VEGEBIND P is a Gluten Free protein / starch and can be applied in manufactured meats, bakery products and general food products. VEGEBIND P provides an excellent source of protein with a balanced amino acid profile plus has good water binding and fat emulsification functionality.

Functional Attributes

Fat emulsification- Effectively emulsified 5 X

Gellation-very firm gel at 1 : 7, forms a firm short gel. Starch gellation occurs at 65°C

Applications and Typical Dosage

Emulsified Meat Systems (EMS) - 1 to 3%

Ground Meats, meat patties, meat balls - 1 to 3%

Replacement of Soy Protein and Potato Starch

e.g. Typical recipes for Frankfurters and Luncheon meats contain approx. 2% Isolated Soy Protein and 4% Potato Starch. By replacing the Soy Protein and Potato Starch with 6% Vegebind P, the functionality of the Vegebind P will provide the same if not better quality and demonstrates excellent fat emulsification, water holding and gelation at a cost IMPROVEMENT.
