This specification discloses methods for removing unwanted flavors from legume protein concentrates, which are powdered legume compositions that have been classified to increase the protein compared to the protein content of the base legume. In at least some embodiments the methods are used to make de-flavored fava bean protein concentrates. Advantageously, the methods are selected to minimize damage to the de-flavored legume protein concentrates by reference to percent change of denaturation enthalpy compared an untreated legume protein concentrate. |

Composite flour includes native plant flour and complexed MCT and/or other nutritional oil at least partially encapsulated by wall material and incorporated within the composite flour, wherein polysaccharide from a portion of the native plant flour forms part of the wall material. The wall material includes protein, e.g., pea protein, polysaccharide released from the native plant flour, and emulsifier(s), and/or polysaccharide fiber, e.g., acacia fiber. The native plant flour may be gluten-flour, gluten-free flour and/or low carbohydrate seed, nut or vegetable flour. Composite flours can replace traditional flours to make food products, such as baked goods, fried goods, boiled goods, or uncooked goods, but with benefits, such as reduced gluten and/or carbohydrates, increased freshness and volume and improved texture and taste compared to alternative flours and even all-purpose flour. Composite flour can be blended with native flour and/or another composite flour to form blended flour. |

An improved method of detoxifying gluten proteins from cereal grains produces detoxified cereal grains with a reduction of antigenicity of toxic epitopes of gluten proteins by up to a range between 0 and 20 ppm. The detoxified cereal grains can be advantageously used for preparation of food products (e.g. bakery products, pasta or dairy products) having a manifest preventive and/or therapeutic effect for gut dysbiosis caused by bacterial or viral infective agents or by pathologies with a strong inflammatory or autoimmune component such as celiac disease, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease and irritable intestine syndrome. |
