“…In many cases, processing of pea protein ingredients involves a thermal treatment step, which can lead to the formation of a gel structure if the protein concentration is above a minimum level (Shand, Ya, Pietrasik, & Wanasundara, ; Sun & Arntfield, ). Other methods used to obtain pea based gels include enzymatic treatments (Djoullah, Husson, & Saurel, ) and acid‐induced gelation (Mession, Chihi, Sok, & Saurel, ).
