AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current plant-based egg white substitutes struggle with foam-forming ability, retention ability, and thermal stability, making it difficult to replicate the shape, texture, and mouthfeel of conventional meringue cookies.

Method used

A method involving the extraction of albumin from soybeans, including pH adjustments and centrifugation steps, followed by drying to produce a plant-based egg white substitute, which is then used to make meringue cookies.

Benefits of technology

The method enhances the foam-forming and thermal stability of plant-based egg white substitutes, allowing for the production of meringue cookies with similar shape, texture, and mouthfeel to traditional meringues.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a plant-derived egg white substitute comprising a raw material manufacturing step of extracting albumin from soybeans to produce an albumin solution, wherein the raw material manufacturing step may include: a soy milk manufacturing step of preparing soy milk by crushing peeled soybeans and mixing them with water; a first pH adjustment step of adding a base to the soy milk and stirring; a first separation step of separating the supernatant by centrifuging the pH-adjusted soy milk; a second pH adjustment step of adding an acid to the separated protein mixture and stirring; and a second separation step of collecting the albumin solution by centrifuging the pH-adjusted protein mixture.
