Texturised Soy Protein

Most of the new soyfoods entering the market place contain textured soy protein, also called TSP (or textured vegetable protein, TVP). Textured soy protein can be made from soy flour, soy concentrate or soy protein isolate, but only textured soy flour is readily available for consumers to buy. The wide array of soy protein ingredients, when re-hydrated, resembles cooked poultry in texture and may be used alone or with meats to make a wide variety of products.
