Pea protein is often processed to alter the protein's native structure, enhancing desirable textures in meat and dairy analog products. Cold denaturation is a universal phenomenon in protein that exposes hydrophobic amino acids, though little information exists about this in food science research. In this work, ethanol, shear forces, and low temperatures were used to modify the structure of commercial pea protein isolate, and impacts on gelation are characterized. Treatment at −10 °C in ethanol with applied shear forces led to gels with the lowest tan δ values during temperature ramps and frequency sweeps. A quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) method found that hydrogen bonding can be derived from secondary structure (R² = 0.960), and hydrogen bonding correlated with the temperature dependence of G′ during cooling in treatments. This work suggests cold denaturation forms hydrophobically bound gels that may aid in replacing fatty textures, and a QSPR framework aids in interpreting rheological data.
