Abstract

Food is the first priority for the human beings. World food security is a serious and pressing contemporary issue [1]. Cereals (major rice, wheat, and maize, minor sorghum and millets) and pulses (major Chickpea, field pea, lupin, faba bean, lentils, etc) are basic elementary food sources. The plant protein is a key driver of agricultural market. Cereals and pulses are a sustainable and major source of protein, energy and fibre, which human beings particularly rely on. Pulses offer many benefits for nutrition, health and chronic disease prevention. As a result, there has been increased interest from food companies in using pulse for product formulations.
