Urban Platter Soya Granules – 53% Plant Protein Minced Soya for Vegetarian Cooking
Deliver 53 grams of concentrated plant protein per 100g without wheat starches, gels, or artificial binders. Packaged in a practical 300g pouch, these granules are extruded from 100% defatted soy flour into a fine, crumbly format that mimics the structural breakdown of ground meat while delivering a lean macronutrient profile of just 314 calories per 100g.
Dry storage requires only a brief rinse and a three-to-four-minute steep in boiling water or light stock to fully rehydrate. Unlike traditional soya chunks that demand lengthy presoaking and aggressive squeeze-draining, these fine granules integrate directly into your pan. The porous surface captures aromatics completely, making them highly effective for seasoning-heavy dishes like vegetarian keema, stuffed parathas, spicy wrap fillings, hearty pasta sauces, and stir-fried rice bowls.

Why choose urban platter soya granules: most commercial textured vegetable protein products cut costs with maize flour or isolated pea isolates, which often turn gummy or fail to absorb marinades. These granules rely solely on soy compaction, preserving the natural fibrous bite that holds up during extended stewing without disintegrating. The clean ingredient list and consistent nutrient ratio make them a straightforward swap for animal mince in standard recipes, helping home cooks dial in higher protein intakes without navigating complex supplement routines or budget-heavy butcher counters.
