About Soya mince

Soya mince, also known as textured vegetable protein (TVP), is a versatile plant-based ingredient made primarily from defatted soy flour. Originating from soy beans, it has become a popular protein-rich option in vegan and vegetarian diets around the world. This meat substitute is commonly used in dishes like stir-fries, curries, and pasta sauces, offering a texture similar to ground meat. Packed with protein, dietary fiber, and essential amino acids, soya mince supports muscle building and digestion. It is naturally low in fat and cholesterol-free, making it heart-healthy. However, it may be highly processed and contain additives depending on the brand, so choosing minimally processed varieties is recommended. Additionally, some people may need to moderate consumption due to potential effects on hormone balance linked to soy’s phytoestrogen content. Soya mince is easy to prepare and a sustainable option for those seeking nutritious, plant-based alternatives.
