Notes:
Air-classified pea protein was texturized using a twin-screw extruder. The effects of moisture, screw speed and barrel temperature on the physical, functional and nutritional characteristics of texturized pea protein were investigated. Increased dough moisture increased product bulk density (BD) and available lysine (LYS) of texturized pea products, but decreased water-holding capacity (WHC) and in vitro protein digestibility (DIG). Raising the screw speed reduced BD and LYS of texturized pea protein, but increased WHC and DIG. Bulk density and LYS decreased as barrel temperature was increased, whereas WHC and DIG increased. Texturized pea protein resembled commercial texturized soy products with respect to most physical and functional properties.
