摘要：
An edible formulation comprises edible fungal particles of a filamentous fungus and at least 2000mg of one divalent or trivalent cation per kilogram of filamentous fungi on a dry basis. The formulation also includes acetate moieties to counter the disagreeable taste of the cations. A preferred formulation includes calcium chloride and calcium acetate. Conventionally egg albumin is used to bind together edible filamentous fungi in meat substitute products. The metal ions are able to increase the elastic modulus of firmness of edible fungus, even in the absence of albumin or hydrocolloids, and provide a meat substitute suitable for vegans.
