Recent applications work has demonstrated that Merit Functional Foods’ Peazazz #peaprotein isolate – in combination with an enzyme called transglutaminase - can replace #methylcellulose, a binding and gelling ingredient widely used in meat alternatives that many firms are desperate to replace in order to ‘clean up’ product labels.

While combining transglutaminase with plant proteins has been tried before, acknowledges research and applications director Jeff Casper, “When we tested transglutaminase with our Peazazz and Peazazz C pea proteins and compared the results against across a range of proteins from various botanical sources and also against other commercial pea proteins, we knew we had something special.

"Our protein is produced using membrane filtration, which changes the protein composition and removes impurities that can impact taste and functionality, including how it behaves in gel networks catalyzed using transglutaminase.”
