Balancing juiciness, tenderness and flavour in animal- and plant-based meat products
Reducing saturated fat
Fungible helps to create a better nutritional profile is it contains only 15% of fat compared to other vegetable fats. Resulting in a reduction in product calories. The strong reduction in saturated fat improves the Nutri-Score rating.
Improving bite & succulence
The fibrous nature of mushrooms interacts with the natural binding which enhances water retention. This gives a firm texture that mimics fat’s mouthfeel. The moisture-retaining properties ensure products to stay juicy and flavourful, even after processing.
Natural umami taste
Mushrooms are rich in umami, masking plant protein off-tastes and enhancing flavours. Their earthy, meaty notes add meat-like richness, while Fungible boosts juiciness for a more enjoyable eating experience.
