Abstract
High-protein food additives are prepared by reacting a protein material with L-cysteine, or a derivative thereof, with homogenization and heating. The homogenization and heating is preferably carried out on an aqueously slurry of the protein material and L-cysteine. The homogenized and reacted slurry is then dried to form a powder. The resultant food additive may be incorporated into a wide variety of food products to enhance the physical characteristics thereof.
