Organic Soya Nuggets, Color : Brown, Certification : FSSAI

Soya nuggets (also called soy chunks) are a plant-based protein food made from defatted soy flour, which is a byproduct of extracting soy oil. They are widely used in vegetarian and vegan diets as a meat substitute because of their high protein content and meaty texture.

Here’s a detailed description:

• Appearance:
  They are small, dry, beige-colored chunks or granules that expand in size when soaked in hot water.

• Texture:
  When raw, they are hard and dry, but after soaking or boiling, they become soft, spongy, and chewy, closely resembling meat in bite and texture.

  On their own, soya nuggets have a neutral taste, but they readily absorb flavors, spices, and gravies, making them versatile for different recipes.
