Textured Protein (TVP/TPP) is produced by extrusion cooking of defatted protein flour or concentrate (soy, pea, wheat, faba, etc.) under high temperature, pressure, and shear, aligning proteins into a fibrous, meat-like structure.
Upon rehydration, the product delivers a chewy, meat-like bite for plant-based meat, meal, and bakery applications. Available in chunks, flakes, mince, and strips.
