1. A method for production of an oleogel, the method comprising:
(i) providing a powdered protein from which a 0.5-40 wt. % dispersion of protein in oil is generated;
(ii) adding between 0.05 and 1 gram of water per gram protein to the dispersion; and
(iii) mixing the dispersion for a sufficient period of time to produce a solid oleogel.
