Read Nature’s NotebookAbout this product
Lotus Textured Soy Protein is a soy-based ingredient for vegetarian and vegan cooking, with two distinct pack choices. Choose the organic coarse 100g product or the 200g textured soy protein product according to the ingredients and texture needed for your meal.
The 100g organic coarse version has a ground-meat-style texture for dishes such as bolognese and chilli. The 200g version has a nugget or chunk-like texture and suits bolognese, chilli and curries. The pack sizes are different formulations, so selecting a size also selects the product.
Plan the recipe around the selected soy product before starting. Bolognese and chilli offer examples of meals where textured soy can be combined with vegetables, sauce and seasoning. A curry may use the chunk-style product differently from a ground-meat-style mixture. Follow the preparation method for the selected pack and the recipe, rather than transferring a soaking amount or cooking time from an unrelated product. When cooking for others, the soy ingredient and any additional allergen statement should be clear. Choose the organic 100g or standard 200g formulation according to the ingredient list and texture needed for your recipe.
The organic claim applies to the 100g option only. The 200g option contains defatted soy meal and caramel colour 150d, with its own allergen wording. Choose by formulation and recipe first, then consider how much you need for a batch. There is no need to choose the larger pack simply because it holds more: the organic 100g and standard 200g products have different ingredient statements. A recipe preference for ground-style or chunk-style texture can be as relevant as quantity. Select the formulation before planning how much of it to prepare.
Keep the textured soy protein in a cool, dry place, with the pack closed between uses. Use a clean, dry measure when taking the amount for a recipe, and keep dry ingredients separate from prepared food. Keep the selected size attached to its ingredient and allergen statement when preparing a shared meal.
