With the rise of plant-based eating, there are now plenty of vegetarian- and vegan-friendly meat substitutes that can be made for chicken, beef, turkey, pork and fish—but mock duck is not an easy imitation meat to come by.
Linda Mccartney's sets itself apart as a producer of Vegetarian Shredded Hoisin Duck, which is a meat alternative that's made from a base of rehydrated textured soya and wheat protein, as well as other ingredients for flavor. The seasoned, shredded mock duck meat is part of the brand's frozen range, which means that it can be added to a pan straight from the freezer and prepared in a matter of minutes.
The Frozen Range from Linda Mccartney's also includes a range of vegetarian-friendly options such as Chorizo & Red Pepper Sausages, Pulled Chicken and a Beef Burrito Mix.
