quality Wheat Gluten Protein & Vital Wheat Gluten manufacturer

Vital Wheat Gluten, also known as active gluten powder, has a protein content of more than 80% and complete amino acid composition. It is a plant protein source with rich nutrition, high quality and low price.   Vital Wheat Gluten is mainly composed of Glutenin with small molecular weight, spherical shape and good extensibility, and glutenin with large molecular weight, fibrous shape and strong elasticity.   When Vital Wheat Gluten powder absorbs water, it forms wet gluten with network structure, which has good viscoelasticity, extensibility, thermal setting, emulsification and Film formability.   For example, gluten, roasted bran, moldy bran, ancient meat, vegetarian sausage, vegetarian chicken, vegetarian duck, oil gluten and so on in traditional products are simple applications of the above characteristics.     The main components of vital wheat gluten powder are glutenin and gliadin. In addition, it also contains a small amount of starch, fat, minerals and so on. Glutenin is a protein polymerized by polypeptide bond through intermolecular disulfide bond. It has a large molecular weight, is fibrous, is highly cross connected in a branching way, has irregular structure and contains molecules β- There are many folding structures, rich in glutamine (Gln) and cystine (Cys).   Gliadin is a monomer protein with a molecular weight of about 35 KD. It is spherical and insoluble in water and absolute ethanol, but soluble in 70% ~ 80% ethanol solution. It is characterized by more proline and amide, more non-polar side chains than polar side chains, no subunit structure in the molecule and no disulfide bond between peptide chains. The single peptide chains are connected by hydrogen bond, hydrophobic bond and intramolecular disulfide bond, Form a compact three-dimensional structure.   At low pH, gliadin can be divided into α、β、γ、ω Four types, of which α- Gliadin has the highest fluidity, ω- Gliadin has the worst fluidity.  

On May 26, 2021, Whole Foods Market revealed its first-ever plant-based trend predictions, with nut-based cheese alternatives, banana blossoms and creamy cashew dips topping the list. Looking ahead to summer and beyond, the grocer’s Trends Council pooled members’ industry knowledge, product-sourcing expertise and hands-on work with emerging and existing plant-forward brands to inform the predictions. The choice to highlight plant-based predictions comes at a time when shoppers are focusing on eating more plants. According to a recent study by The Hartman Group, nearly half (48%) of consumers look for products labeled as “plant-based.” “Plant-based is the grocery category to watch right now as brands continue to innovate by using new ingredients and processes that make plant-based products exciting for shoppers,” said Parker Brody, Senior Global Category Merchant for Plant-Based at Whole Foods Market. “And in the laid-back days of summer, we find that customers are breaking out of their routines and are more open to trying something new, whether they’re longtime vegans or just starting to experiment with plant-based eating. So, expect to see gourmet plant-based cheese alternative spreads at picnics and fish alternatives made from banana blossoms on the grill this season.” Whole Foods Market’s top five plant-based trends for the summer: Alternative Cheeses Go Gourmet Give summer charcuterie boards an upgraded, plant-based twist with a distinctive assortment of cheese alternatives that are all dairy free. While using nut-based milks and ingredients like black garlic truffle, dill Havarti and chive is unique, plant-based cheesemakers are also replicating the methods used to make dairy cheeses for more authentic textures and flavors. Including a plant-based cheese will be sure to take your picnic basket to the next level. Try the Trend: Miyoko’s Creamery Artisan Vegan Cheese: Semi-Firm Smoked English Farmhouse, Semi-Soft Double Cream Classic Chive; Treeline Sea Salt & Pepper Soft French-Style Nut Cheese; Kite Hill Spreadable Cheese: Garlic & Herb, Cracked Black Pepper; Cheeze & Thank You: Vegan Dill Havarti, Vegan Black Garlic Truffle Fontina (available only in Illinois stores)
