Summary: | Disclosed are plant protein concentrates prepared from whole plant seeds or alternatively, from seed cakes or press cakes or seed meals or non-toasted solvent-extracted press-cakes, and the like. Plant seeds or seed cakes or press cakes or seed meals or non-toasted solvent-extracted press-cakes, and the like, are deconstructed and separated into heavy protein-rich fractions and light oil-rich fractions. The deconstruction processes avoid the use of organic solvents and temperatures above 60° C. The separated fractions are then selectively processed to produce selected plant protein concentrates comprising at least about 65% (w/w) plant protein, from about 4% (w/w) to about 10% (w/w) plant oil, from about 0.5% (w/w) to about 15% (w/w) carbohydrates, water, and ash. The plant protein concentrates are suitable for use as ingredients in nutritional formulations. |
