Vitatex Wheat Fava Flakes SVP Pro has been debuted by clean label ingredients brand Goodwills Innovation as a versatile solution developed for the food manufacturing industry to support plant-based innovations. The solution is described as being robust with a clean label profile that's reported to have a very close texture to meat, while featuring a pronounced fiber and layer structure along with a long-lasting bite. The solution is achieved using a mix of wheat and fava bean protein that promotes amino acid cross-linking to work well for plant-based versions of pulled meat recipes, sliced meats, barbecue skewers and more.
Application Manager for Plant-Based at Goodwills Innovation Antje Dittrich spoke on the Vitatex Wheat Fava Flakes SVP Pro saying, "While limited cross-linking occurs when proteins are individually textured and then blended, the co-extrusion process incites strong cross-linking activity that results in a stable, cohesive structure with distinct layers and a long-lasting bite. This technology allows us to achieve a meat-like structure, which is ideal for products where bite and mouthfeel are key to enjoyment."
