Soy meat, also known as textured soy protein or soy protein isolate, is a plant-based food product derived from soybeans. High in protein and low in fat, it serves as a popular meat substitute in vegetarian and vegan diets. Typically made by defatting soy flour and processing it into chunks or granules, soy meat mimics the texture of ground or shredded meat, making it versatile for dishes like stir-fries, tacos, or pasta sauces. Commonly used in various global cuisines, it is particularly prominent in Asian cooking and Western plant-based recipes. Soy meat is a great source of essential amino acids, iron, and fiber, while being cholesterol-free. However, some processed varieties may contain added sodium or preservatives, which should be consumed in moderation. An affordable and sustainable protein choice, soy meat is gaining popularity for its nutritional benefits and role in reducing reliance on animal products.
