Minced Textured Vegetable Protein, 1 lb.
This product is just wonderful for vegetarian cooking. It stores easily, cooks very quickly and is inexpensive! When I’m ready to use it, I just throw it in to boiling water with tomato and season it – I used it with pasta, make a sour cream sauce to put over about anything to give added body and protein to a meal. It’s flavor is quite unobtrusive, so you can season to your own liking.
I stumbled across this by accident and am so glad as this is the only place I have found this and have ordered repeatedly.

I absolutely love this stuff. Like another said, there is a slightly sweet taste to it. I have gotten around that with sauteed onions and garlic! Of course, I am just beginning to learn how to use the stuff.
The first dish I made with TVP was Minestrone. It was fabulous!
The next dish was Vegan Tacos. This stuff makes the best Sloppy Joes too.
So, if you’re an omnivore playing around with the idea of turning vegan, you might want to give TVP a try. Also – Barry Farms shipped my order FAST. I will continue to shop from them.

Like my title suggests, I’ve just started to try different alternatives to animal protein. I really liked this product. It was easy to prepare by soaking in water for 15 minutes then frying it up with some spices, tomato, onion and garlic in a bit of olive oil. The texture is close to ground beef though not exactly the same, just a bit softer. I think I like this product the best of the various protein replacements I’ve tried. My only complaint and it’s minor, is that it tastes slightly sweet. Perhaps more experimentation with it and I can figure out how to offset this. In any event I’ll be ordering more!

This product is wonderful. We’ve used quite a few different TVP and this one is by far the best. It’s easily digested and the texture is very pleasant. We order many bags and store them in the freezer.

I’ve looked everywhere online for the original TVP that I used to buy from ADM’s country store in Decatur, IL. In these folks, I finally found it. They’re courteous, very friendly and are just good people. They ship quickly and package in ways that make sense. ie: I bought 25lbs. They shipped in 5-5lb. bags instead of one 25lb. bag. I won’t be buying from anyone else and I use a lot of this product as I’m primarily vegetarian. If I could give it 10 stars, I would!
