Functional Ingredient FibProt®
Okara is a byproduct of the soy milk and tofu industries. It’s made up of over 80% water, and its dry matter contains approximately 20-35% protein and other important nutrients. Globally, over 10 million tons of okara are produced each year. Unfortunately, only 20% of this is used for animal feed or compost, while the majority is discarded due to its high fiber content and unpleasant mouthfeel.
Mycosortia transforms okara into FibProt®, a high-value, ready-to-cook functional ingredient through our proprietary fermentation technology. FibProt® overcomes the gritty mouthfeel of okara, undergoing a remarkable texture transformation.
FibProt®-C exhibits natural cheesy, nutty, and umami notes, making it an ideal flavor enhancer for dairy-free cheeses.
FibProt®-K presents natural nutty, rich, earthy, and umami flavors reminiscent of cocoa. It serves as an ideal cocoa powder substitute within the confectionery industry.
