Abstract
A process for manufacturing vital wheat gluten with substantially no objectionable flavor or aroma includes extracting gluten from wheat or wheat flour in an aqueous process to provide vital wet gum wheat gluten which is then mixed with an aqueous preparation containing an amount of antioxidant effective to prevent production of an objectionable flavor or aroma in a subsequent drying step. The aqueous antioxidant/gluten mixture is dried to produce dried vital wheat gluten with substantially no objectionable flavor or aroma.
