Protein texturates and cereal extrudates for the production of modern foods.
Texturates from wheat protein and innovative extrudates from cereals and other agricultural products are becoming increasingly important as industrial food ingredients. This is because people’s diets and demands for healthier, more sustainable foods have changed over time. Today, and even more so in the future, health, well-being, enjoyment, and ethics are at the heart of food choices. Good nutrition has become more holistic, more comprehensive. Not only in terms of nutrients and ingredients, freshness and taste, vitamins, minerals, and fibre, but also with regard to animal-ethical and socially-acceptable production conditions. Plant-based food, free from and nutrifood are important trends. Nevertheless, the convenience of food, especially with regard to mobility, is also important.

New food possibilities with crispies.
Crispy breadcrumbs are a taste sensation. Especially with convenience foods, they are becoming more and more important. Nowadays, you can bread almost anything and fry or roast it until crispy. In addition to the classic meat and fish application, it is also potato products, veggie meat products and cheese products that become tasty, quickly-prepared meals with crumbs. Loryma crumbs are not only crispy and delicious; they also protect the substrate in the production process during frying or roasting and make the end-consumer product crispier.
