Soy Protein Isolate

Description

Soy protein isolate is a light-colored, neutral-tasting powder. It is produced by extracting most of the fat, carbohydrates, and non-protein components from soybeans, leaving a product that is almost pure protein. The soybeans are dehulled, the protein is extracted using solvents or water, and the resulting material is dried to a fine powder.

Soy isolate is an excellent source of protein and is easily digestible. It is also known for its foaming, emulsifying and gelling properties. It plays a key role in enhancing the flavor of food, increasing its elasticity and improving oil and water retention.
