    摘要: The invention relates to the manufacture of food and food ingredients, more in particular to plant-based fibrous structures for use in vegan products such as meat analogs. Provided is a method for the manufacture of an edible protein-based fibrous structure, comprising contacting an aqueous solution of a non-denatured potato protein with a carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC) having a Mw of at least 150,000 Dalton (Da) to yield a fiber forming solution, which fiber forming solution has a total dry matter (TDM) content in the range of 0.5 to 15%, and wherein said contacting is performed in the pH range of 2 to 5 and while mixing thereby inducing the formation of a potato protein-based edible fibrous structure.
