Abstract

A method of preparing a protein concentrate and protein concentrate compositions are described. The method relates to combining an aqueous process stream from a grain milling process with an oil seed material to form a slurry, steeping the slurry, and isolating a protein concentrate from the slurry. In one embodiment, the aqueous process stream comprises a soluble protein. In some embodiments, the method includes additional steps such as enzymatic treatment, washing of the isolated protein concentrate, and drying the protein concentrate.
