About Uncooked soya chunks
Uncooked soya chunks, also known as textured vegetable protein (TVP), are plant-based protein sources made from soy flour that has been defatted and dehydrated. Originating from global vegetarian and vegan cuisines, they are widely used in Indian dishes like curries, biryanis, and stir-fries due to their meat-like texture. Nutritionally, soya chunks are rich in protein, offering approximately 52g per 100g, making them an excellent option for muscle building and protein supplementation. They are low in fat, cholesterol-free, and packed with essential amino acids, iron, and calcium. However, they may contain high levels of phytoestrogens, which could impact hormone balance if overconsumed, especially for individuals sensitive to soy products. Being highly processed, natural alternatives might be preferred for those seeking less-refined plant proteins. Easy to prepare by soaking or boiling, soya chunks are a versatile and affordable way to incorporate protein into diverse dishes.
