(54) Title: METHODS FOR THE PRODUCTION AND USE OF MYCELIATED HIGH PROTEIN FOOD COMPOSITIONS 1-1 ir) GC FIG. 3 0 1-1 X 1-1 ) (57) : Disclosed is a method to prepare a myceliated high-protein food product, which includes culturing a fungi an ----. aqueous media which has a high level of protein, for example at least 20 g protein per 100 g dry weight with excipients, on a dry L .. ' weight basis. The fungi can include Pleurotus ostreatus, Pleurotus eryngii, Lepista nuda, Hericium erinaceus, Lentinula edodes, ::::) Agaricus blazeii, Laetiporus sulfureus and combinations thereof. After culturing, the material is harvested by obtaining the myceli - el ated high protein food product via drying or concentrating. The resultant myceliated high protein food product may have its taste, 0 flavor, or aroma modulated, such as by increasing desirable flavors or tastes such as meaty, savory, umami, popcorn and/or by de- creasing undesirable flavors such as bitterness, astringency or beaniness. Deflavoring and/or deodorizing as compared to non-my - .,. celiated control materials can also be observed. Also disclosed are myceliated high protein food products.
