A method of preparing a pea protein composition, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) adding pea protein and water to a first vessel to form a first mixture, wherein the concentration of pea protein in the first mixture is from about 12% to about 18% (w/w);
- (b) adding an oxidizing agent to the first mixture wherein the oxidizing agent is added over a period of from about 5 minutes to about 120 minutes to form a second mixture, wherein the concentration of the oxidizing agent in the second mixture is greater than 0.05% and less than 0.5% (w/w);
- (c) heating the second mixture to a temperature of from about 130° F. to about 200° F. for a period of from about 2 minutes to about 20 minutes;
- and
