The invention belongs to the technical field of
food processing, and provides
plant meat based on compounding of camellia seed
grease and
polysaccharide and a preparation method of the
plant meat. The preparation method comprises the following steps: dispersing a camellia seed
grease body in water to obtain a
grease body
emulsion; the preparation method comprises the following steps: mixing
plant drawing
protein with water, and sequentially carrying out hydration, stirring,
grinding, sieving and ultrasonic treatment to obtain a fibrous
system; mixing the grease body
emulsion, the fibrous
system and
polysaccharide, and performing crosslinking to obtain the plant meat, the
polysaccharide comprises one or more of
gellan gum,
konjac glucomannan and
chitosan. According to the invention, the camellia seed grease body is integrated into the
protein matrix as an active filler, and a dense gel network is formed by utilizing the enhanced
hydrogen bond and hydrophobic interaction between the
protein matrix and polysaccharide, so that the
hardness and elasticity of the plant meat are remarkably improved; meanwhile, the texture and the rheological property of the plant meat are further enhanced by utilizing the excellent compatibility of the polysaccharide with the camellia seed grease body and the protein matrix and through the structure strengthening and water molecule fixing effects.
