Abstract

See full text

A process for producing a protein product for addition to raw meat wherein the source of the protein product is animal muscle or mechanically deboned meat. The animal muscle tissue is mixed with water and homogenized. Protein in the homogenate is solubilized. Solubilized homogenate is heated to a temperature required for pasteurization and/or sterilization according to known standards. The homogenate is then adjusted to a value at which the protein precipitates. The precipitate is free of bacteria and toxins and can be used as meat or added to raw meat for delivery to a consumer as uncooked meat.
