Mycoprotein, also called fungal protein or mycelium protein, is a high-quality protein whose name is derived from the Greek for “fungus.” It is commonly produced from the biomass (zero-waste) fermentation of Fusarium venenatum. As the food industry faces the challenge of feeding a growing global population sustainably while reducing environmental impacts, mycoprotein can become a real game-changer!💪 With its 𝗳𝗶𝗯𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 and 𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝘀𝗸 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗳𝗳-𝗳𝗹𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀, it resembles meat and can reach a protein content up to 50% on a dry matter basis. But the highlight of this protein is that it is 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 and has much 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲 compared to other proteins, since it contains 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗼 𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗱𝘀. It’s 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵 𝗶𝗻 𝗳𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿, including beta-glucan and chitin, low in total and saturated fats, and contains no cholesterol. If you’re curious to know how mycoprotein-based products taste, visit us at our upcoming trade shows in November. We’ll be at the Plant Based World Expo Europe in London as well as at Food ingredients Europe in Frankfurt, showcasing what is possible with 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀.
