Plant-based Meat Texture Enhancers

• Scientists use various crops to develop plant-based meat.

• Experts are now doing trait mapping and digital phenotyping to experiment with other crops that can have the right texture.
• "Milling, pounding, soaking, extruding, and applying enzymes are some of the processes used to transform crops into fibrous animal-meat like product.
