A method for growing fungal mycelia and then forming edible products

摘要

The method of multiplying the fungal hyphae and forming the edible food comprises the step of multiplying the fungal cells in the breeding medium such that the fungal cells produce the mycelium.The growth medium comprises sugar, nitrogen containing compounds, and phosphoric acid containing compounds.The mycelium is separated from the growth medium.The mycelium is concentrated to obtain fibrous hyphae having a protein content exceeding 40 mass% of the dry mass of the mycelium.The addition of food additives to fibrous mycelium can produce the biomass.Biomass may be formed in edible foods.The biomass can be formed in a meat substitute product.
