A process for producing a detoxified protein concentrate product from defatted oilseeds, particularly those of the thioglucoside and phenolic containing types such as rapeseed, mustard or Crambe, in which dehulled, defatted seeds are extracted with an aqueous alcohol solvent under substantially non-oxidizing conditions, so as to prevent oxidation of the contained phenolic compounds and inhibit enzymic degradation of the glucosinolates. The solid residue of the extraction is dried at a temperature below about 60.degree. C.
