The relation of protein solubility to the degree of denaturation and to the extent and the mechanism of enzymatic hydrolysis is discussed, and a model based on Linderstrom-Lang’s theory for the initial enzyme attack on the protein molecule is presented. In the practical use of protein hydrolysates in foods, the formation of bitter peptides is the most serious problem. According to the literature reviewed, the bitterness seems to be related to the content of hydrophobic amino acids in the protein rather than to the enzyme applied. Consequently, the majority of reports describes ways of attacking the bitterness problem, such as the application of a reverse osmosis cell or the extended hydrolysis by peptidases. The literature on the engineeringaspects of protein hydrolysis comprises important work on continuous hydrolysis of fish protein concentrate and soy protein isolate.In the last few decades an increasing number of un-conventional proteins have for technical and economic reasons found their way into our food. Several important factors must be considered in that context: The nutritional value, the organoleptic quality, and the functional properties of the protein, plus, of course, the economic and legal aspects of protein addition. Often these factors are conflicting, and we could briefly state the protein industry’s problem as giving the raw protein the desired functional and organoleptic properties without an unacceptable loss of nutritional value and at a reasonable cost. Proteins for use in liquid foods and beverages must possess a high solubility in the system. However, solubility
