Imitated meat product (nuggets) has been a major influence on vegans since time immemorial. Pea protein isolates (PPIs) and lentil protein isolates (LPIs) are identified as ingredients for their indigenous color, flavor, taste, texture, and functional properties. This study was aimed to investigate the potential use of pea and lentil PI as a meat substitute in nugget preparation to replace meat usage. Chemical characteristics of pea and lentil powder and functional properties of PPI and LPI were determined. Furthermore, the nutritional profile, textural property, and sensory attributes of imitated meat products (nuggets) were compared with chicken‐based nuggets. Results showed that functional properties of PPI and LPI were almost similar to each other, and NG2 (40%PPI: 60%LPI) was selected as the most acceptable nugget with desired nutritional, textural, and sensory attributes. PPI and LPI can be successfully used nutritionally and functionally as valuable substitutes for meat‐based nuggets, even in NG2 (40%PPI: 60%LPI), without significant deterioration of overall acceptability of nuggets. PPI‐ and LPI‐based nuggets could be introduced to the market as a potential marketable non‐meat product with indigenous color, flavor, taste, texture, and overall acceptability.
This article deals with the development of imitated meat‐based products, such as nuggets, to overcome the utilization of meat source by replacement with legume protein. |
