Soya protein
Soya protein is a type of protein derived from soybeans, a plant-based source. Soybeans are legumes that are commonly used in many food products, especially in vegetarian and vegan options. Soya protein is a popular ingredient due to its versatility and nutritional benefits.
To make soya protein, soybeans are crushed into flakes, and then oil is extracted, leaving behind soybean meal. This meal is then processed to remove the fibre and carbohydrates, resulting in a concentrated protein product. The final product can come in various forms such as powder, flakes, or textured pieces, ready to be included in a wide range of food items.
On food labels, soya protein can be found in products like meat substitutes, plant-based milks, energy bars, and baked goods. It is often used to boost the protein content of food, provide texture, or act as a binder. Soya protein can also enhance the nutritional profile of foods, making them a suitable option for those looking to increase their protein intake or follow a plant-based diet.
