About Spicy tempeh

Spicy tempeh is a flavorful plant-based protein made primarily from fermented soybeans, seasoned with a blend of spices such as chili powder, paprika, garlic, and ginger for a bold, zesty kick. Originating from Indonesian cuisine, tempeh is a traditional staple celebrated for its nutty taste and versatile texture. Packed with nutrients, it offers a high concentration of protein, dietary fiber, and essential vitamins like B6 and iron, making it a satisfying and nutritious option for vegetarians and vegans. Fermentation enhances its digestibility and gut health benefits. Typically pan-fried or baked, spicy tempeh is low in fat compared to most animal proteins, though added oils in preparation may increase caloric content. Its spicy seasoning adds richness without relying on heavy sauces, making it a well-rounded ingredient for salads, grain bowls, wraps, or stir-fries.
