So, what is matière graisses végétales?
"Matière graisses végétales" is a French term that refers to vegetable fat or vegetable shortening. It is a versatile ingredient commonly used in baking, frying, and as a substitute for butter or lard in vegan and vegetarian recipes. Made from various plant sources such as palm, coconut, or soybean oil, it is solid at room temperature and has a neutral flavor. Vegetable fat provides a smooth texture and moisture to baked goods, while also adding richness to savory dishes. It is an essential ingredient in many recipes and a popular alternative for those seeking a plant-based diet.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
