This paper explored the causes of protein precipitate formation in blanched soymilk prepared by blanching soybeans through studying the changes in composition and amount of protein particles during its thermal processing. Compared with the traditional method of preparing soymilk, blanching changed the thermal aggregation behavior of protein particles. Results showed that when blanching was applied to soybeans, β-conglycinin (7S) was denatured in the blanched soybeans, which resulted in the fixation and aggregation of 7S prior to the grinding processing. Therefore, 7S lost its inhibitory ability on the growth of other protein aggregation, explaining the increased insoluble precipitates in the blanched soymilk.

Advances in grinding strategies have been beneficial to eliminating the off-flavor of soymilk and improving the quality soy products. Herein, four grinding processing, dry-blanching grinding (D-BG), wet-blanching grinding (W-BG), wet-anaerobic grinding (W-AG) and traditional grinding (TG) were employed and found to impose a significant impact on off-flavor components, accompanied by changes of hydroperoxides and free radicals. The results showed that all three methods could significantly hinder the formation of C6 aldehydes.

Lactic acid-fermented soymilk as a new plant-based food has aroused extensive attention because of its effects on nutrition and health. This study was conducted to delve into the antioxidative and anti-inflammatory activities of lactic acid-fermented soymilk. To elucidate the key factors that affect the antioxidant properties of fermented soymilk, the strains and preparation process were investigated.

Formulation of plant-based food ingredients rich in nutrients is becoming a viable intervention to enhance food security. In this study, a novel soy-moringa beverage was produced using two processing methods. Method I involved blending soymilk and moringa juice, whereas method II dealt with the co-grinding of soymilk together with blanched moringa leaves.

The present work investigated effects of high-temperature pressure cooking (HP) on physico-chemical properties and in vitro protein digestibility of cold-grind soymilk (CS) and blanched soymilk (BS). Confocal laser scanning microscopy presented that proteins and lipids in BS were obviously coalesced compared with CS, while HP treatment contributed to homogeneous dispersion of protein and lipid. Particle size of the BS and BSHP were larger than that of CS and CSHP.

However, this product is not widely accepted due to an objectionable beany flavor. Several methods involving heat treatment and soaking in basic solutions prior to soymilk extraction have been reported to reduce the objectionable flavor.
