A Finger on the Pulse of the Pea Protein Market
Although the sale of pea protein isolate is trending and has
become a formidable competitor to soy protein, the sales of its
by-products does not see a similar growth curve.

foodsAccording to Henk Hoogenkamp, a protein application specialist in the field of hybrid foods, there is no ideal ratio for hybrid products. “For developing countries, the bottom line is cost, although I have always tried to formulate the products with the same nutritional protein content as the original,” he says.
Texture and color are considered the
Holy Grail when it comes to using
plant-protein ingredients to mimic meat.
It is a fine art to duplicate the textural
subtleties such as chewiness, fibrosity, and flakiness of the meat or fish. Proprietary innovative manufacturing and formulation technologies have become available and are now increasingly used for animal protein replacement.

Global demand for protein is booming partly due to rising incomes in emerging markets. Higher income also translates to consumers’ demand for improved organoleptic and nutritive quality, while shifting the diet preferences to include more protein, says Henk Hoogenkamp, Protein Specialist & Author.

No Self Reliance
Increasing meat consumption has
manifested itself in China, losing
its near self-sufficiency in soybeans.
Chinese soybeans imports have steadily
increased and now represent about
85 percent of consumption. Similarly,
corn imports are now also at the
beginning of the soy-trajectory as
compared to the past when China
was self-sufficient.
