Protein Quality of African Locust Bean—A High-Value Gathered Tree Food Contributing Protein and Palatability to Plant-Based Diets by Eliot T. Masters, Bokary Allaye Kelly

“…The seed obtained from pods collected from trees by rural women is fermented into a dense and aromatic paste known as soumbala, dawadawa, or iru—a protein-rich condiment underlying much of West African cuisine, its rich umami base lending a depth of flavor as a “meat substitute” in plant-based diets for which animal protein is a limiting component. Here, we assess the protein quality of P. biglobosa seed and its fermented product (soumbala) from three locations of southern Mali comprising three different eco-climatic zones, to determine whether variation in nutritional composition and protein quality could be correlated with the geographic variables of latitude and elevation. …”
