Process for reducing the nucleic acid content in the production of an edible protein-containing substance comprising contacting a grown non-toxic microfungus of the class Fungi Imperfecti with a solvent comprising between 40% and 100% (by volume) of a lower alkanol containing up to three carbon atoms and thereafter incubating at a pH between 5 and 9.5 and at a temperature between 30.degree. C. and 80.degree. C. for a time of at least 90 seconds. There is disclosed an edible protein-containing substance of a non-viable edible non-toxic fungal mycelium of a non-toxic strain of the microfungus.
