Ethical, environmental and health-based concerns have driven a remarkable surge in consumer interest in the substitution of animal-based foods with plant-based products. The introduction of a new category of plant-based foods specifically designed to overcome the human health and environmental sustainability limitations of animal-based products has thus become a primary concern of researchers, food industry and policy makers. These plant-based imitations, designed to optimize for nutritional and sensory aspects, have the potential to reduce the environmental impacts of our food system, feed more people with fewer resources, and free up land and ocean ecosystems for biodiversity restoration and recovery. Handbook of Plant-based Animal Food Analogs will provide food industry professionals with a step-by-step guide to ingredients and emerging techniques for design and development, technical and sensory evaluation, consumer acceptability, nutrition and health, market potential and safety and regulations of all plant-based analogs. This book differs from other publications on analogs in that it offers comprehensive coverage and in-depth discussion of the most recent scientific and technological developments in animal food analogs. Beyond a discussion of the basic science, Handbook of Plant-based Animal Food Analogs provides professionals with expert insights on sources, fabrication, acceptability and applications. This work will be helpful for food professionals as well as policy makers, researchers, teachers, nutritionists, and students for a complete and up-to-date overview of plant-based animal food analogs, design and development, consumer acceptability, nutrition and health, regulations, safety and quality evaluation.
