About Mince

Mince, often referred to as ground meat, is finely chopped or ground beef, pork, chicken, turkey, or plant-based alternatives like soy or pea protein. Commonly used in cuisines worldwide, mince is a versatile ingredient featured in dishes like spaghetti Bolognese, tacos, meatballs, and kebabs. Its nutritional profile varies depending on the type and fat content; lean mince is rich in protein, essential for muscle repair and growth, and provides vital minerals like iron and zinc. While lean varieties are a healthier choice, high-fat mince carries more saturated fat, which can impact heart health if consumed excessively. Opting for plant-based mince or lower-fat options can reduce cholesterol intake and align with heart-conscious diets. Ideal for quick, flavorful meals, mince adapts well to various seasonings and cooking methods, making it a staple in diverse culinary traditions.
