Profusion Organic Pea & Fava Protein Chunks, 125g

We love these pieces. Highly nutritious and equally as delicious. We put them in a range of dishes from curries to yakisoba. Great substitute for meat, especially if you infuse the boiled water with herbs or whatever flavour profile you would like them to take on

Great stuff! I don't eat meat, my partner does, so I use this and split sauces or casseroles to share the 'gravy' or liquid content, and use half for partner with meat and half for me with this product. I prefer it to 'just like meat' products, faux chicken etc or the option of veg. Never been keen on replacing meat with cauliflower or sweet potato in a curry, but this is great. Most meat 'substitution' products are NOT like what they are replacing. There needs to be finer tuning with those that say you can't tell the difference. You can. Most are slimy with the wrong consistency. This product is much like a quorn style replacement. Good texture and chew on it. Soaks up the flavours of its sauce. Thoroughly recommend. Great to keep on standby in the store cupboard.

These taste great - much better than your standard chunk of compressed soya flour (for me, anyway). Where they lose out to the standard chunk of compressed soya flour is that they lack the chew. So, great taste but texturally on the soft side. I've found the best results from squeezing them almost dry after the initial soaking, then hard-frying in a little oil and seasoning well. Either consume as a snack or add to dishes at the very last minute before they soak up too much moisture and go too soft.

We thought the rehydration would make them wet and difficult to brown, but was pleased to be wrong. Very easy to cook in the pan, unlike a lot of cubed pieces, they are flat so only need turning once. They were incorporated in a Chinese style dish and came out better than expected. Someone has mentioned rehydrating them in stock, rather than water, which sounds like a great idea and we will try next.

I'd say they're ok. They do what they say. They take on flavour but do just taste like some weird rehydrated paste. Would be absolutely fine if it was space food, but I have just found my inclination to use them is low...

A game changer if you're trying to have more "vegan" options in your diet. Its very easy to cook, simply need to let it soak with boiling water and then drain it as much as you can. I then simply cook it on the pan with a bit of oil and let it completely cooked before adding any sauce. The texture is amazing, it almost tast like chicken.

Love these! I can’t eat a lot of soya or Quorn and struggle to find a veggie meat alternative. These are perfect and so versatile. The suggestion on the packet of soaking them with a stock cube/bit of bullion/MSG is great and gives them more umami flavour because they’re tasteless otherwise. They don’t take long to soak and they’re a solid amount of protein for the calories too! Will buy again and again for sure

It's hard to find good meat substitutes for those who want food that looks somewhat like meat and has a similar texture but is vegan, gluten-free, and soy-free (my husband!). These are ideal! They rehydrate and cook up nicely. As we use them in "wet" food like stews, casseroles, or curries, rather than rehydrating in water as directed which gives a bland result, we rehydrate in stock, seasoned tomato juice, or diluted cooking sauce and add straight to the cooking pot once they've soaked long enough to fully rehydrate. Unlike soy there's no strong unpleasant taste so they take on the flavour of cooking sauces nicely. A useful store cupboard item.
