Soy
Ingredients
Hydrolysed Vegetable Protein (HVP) is a protein obtained from any
vegetable, including soybeans. HVP is a flavour enhancer that can be used
is soups, broths, sauces, gravies, meats and poultry (to name a few).
Lecithin -Extracted from soybean oil, lecithin is used in food manufacturing
as an emulsifier in products high in fats and oils.
Soy Fibre - There are basically 3 types of soy fibre: okara, soy
bran and soy isolate fibre. All of these products are high quality, inexpensive
sources of dietary fibre.
Soy Flour (50% protein) - Soy flour is made from roasted soybeans
ground into a fine powder. All soy powder gives a protein boost to recipes.
Soy flower is gluten free, so yeast- raised breads made with soy flour are
more dense in texture.
Soy grits - Soy grits are similar to soy flour except that the soybeans
have been toasted and cracked into coarse pieces rather than fine powder.
Soy Protein Isolate (Isolated Soy Protein) (90% Protein) - When protein
is removed from defatted flakes the result is soy protein isolate - the
most highly refined soy isolate. Soybean Oil & Products - Soybean Oil,
also referred to as soy oil, is the natural oil extracted from whole soybeans.
