Abstract
There is a growing demand to produce high quality-meat analog based on plant-based protein.. producing meat analog which is rich in tenderness and juiciness is one of the recent challenges in this field. In this survey, flaxseed protein concentrate was used at levels (0, 1, 2, 4, and 5%) as a novel ingredient to develop plant-based meat during the high moisture extrusion in combination with pea protein isolate and the physicochemical properties, The functional, textural, and sensory characteristic of the produced meat analogs were investigated. The results showed that the addition of flaxseed protein concentrate had a significant effect on the amount of protein, carbohydrate, fat, and pH in the samples (p˂0.05) and improved the functional properties such as increasing cooking yield(%) and reducing expressible moisture(%). textural parameters and brightness and redness parameters of the sample were significantly reduced by the addition of flaxseed protein concentrate (p˂0.05). The use of flaxseed protein concentrate significantly increased (p˂0.05).the taste and overall acceptance of the control sample(T1) respectively from 3 and 3, 4 to 4.8 and 4.6 in T5 sample.
