PROCESSED VEGETABLE SEED FIBER FOR FOOD PRODUCTS ABSTRACT A processed vegetable seed fiber, particularly soybean fiber, for use in food products. Processing is accomplished by heating an aqueous slurry of the crude vegetable seed fiber to about 160°F., and then addingacid to reduce the pH of the heated slurry to about 3.5. The elevated temperature of the slurry is maintained for up to about one hour while the slurry is agitated. The resulting acid-pasteurized slurry is then dewatered to ob- tain a fiber material at about 20-30% dry solids. Fresh water is then added to the dewatered fiber material to reslurry it to about 3-4% dry solids. The reslurried fiber material is agitated at a temperature up to about 140°F. for about fifteen to thirty minutes, dewatered a second time, and then dried to about 10% moisture. When crude soybean fiber is heated and treated with acid as described above, using sulfuric acid, the hilums of the seed hulls included as part of the soybean fiber be- comes distinctly lighter in color.
