I've never cooked with it, and never had it in the house. I'm trying to lower my carb intake and I'm a vegetarian, so this seems really interesting.
It is mostly protein and the carbs are nearly all fiber. I just put in an order with Amazon for a 15 pound box. (economy size
) This is the link to the product if that helps anyone.
Unflavored Textured Vegetable Protein TVP - Bulk 15 Pound Case: Amazon.com: Grocery & Gourmet Food
I got the straight unflavored kind. It's cheaper and low fat. Any tips for cooking it? It reads like you can just add hot water and that's enough. Maybe some kind of sauce for flavoring. Any suggestions for that sauce?
I expect I'll be adding it to rice, soups and maybe fried vegetables.
