Abstract
Wheat gluten of high viscous texture possessing a viscosity of about 70,000 cps and a fibrous structure is described. The method for its manufacture involves: (a) agitating gluten with ascorbic acid in the presence of a solution of an edible acid at a pH in the range of between 4.0 and 8.0, preferably 5.0 and 7.0 and at a temperature below 70.degree. C. to produce a relaxed gluten in the form of a viscous liquid-like structure, and (b) generating a stable fibrous structure by incorporating a textured vegetable protein. The wheat gluten is most useful to be incorporated in meat-like products.
