Red oncom spore 10 g

Kenshô red oncom spores are ideal for making tempeh-type fermented vegetables. Kenshô Red Oncom Spores are cultures of Neurospora sitophila, a filamentous fungus used for the fermentation of plant by-products such as soy pulp. This process turns plant waste into a highly nutritious fermented food, known as oncom, which is similar to tempeh and very popular in Indonesia. In addition, this fungus acts as a natural pigment, giving the oncom a characteristic red-orange color.  Benefits Valorization of vegetable proteins The fermentation process with Neurospora sitophila improves the quality of vegetable proteins, making them more bioavailable and easy to digest, ideal for vegetarian and vegan diets.  Natural and sustainable pigment The fungus produces a red-orange colour that not only provides visual benefits, but also avoids the use of artificial colourants.  High protein source Oncom is positioned as a healthy and nutritious substitute for meat, rich in protein and with a versatile texture that adapts to multiple recipes. ¿Why choose Kenshô Red Oncom Spores?
