Soy Protein

What it is

Functional soy protein for use in various food products, helping to improve texture and stability. Here the main value is what the protein does for the mix, not just how much protein it adds.

What it does in the product

In meat products and emulsion products, soy protein:

• binds water and fat in the mix;
• forms a gel and keeps the emulsion stable, so the mix doesn't separate.

How to choose

The protein percentage varies a lot between types of soy, from about 50% in defatted soy flour to over 90% in isolate, so check the value in the technical data sheet before adding it to a recipe. For plant-based products, where you want as much protein as possible, we have isolated soy protein. Soy is an allergen that is emphasized in the ingredients list, even when it's only used as a binder. You'll find other ingredients for meat in meat additives.
