The Plant Protein Landscape: Key ingredient sources for alternative proteins
Event details
This webinar will explore the key characteristics of plant protein sources for alternative protein end products, including:
A basic overview of plant proteins, processing, and choice parameters like functionality, price, sourcing, and nutrition.
• A glance at the landscape of major (e.g. soy, wheat, pea) and emerging (e.g. lupin, mung bean, duckweed) plant protein sources.
• Synergistic combinations of different plant proteins.
• An overview of processing considerations for plant proteins across key applications.
• Consumer perceptions of different plant protein sources.
